Blue Mitchell.
Mainstream MRL 315
Here's an ace from Blue, ably assisted by some class support. Watch out for the 2 tracks penned by Walter Bishop from Black Jazz fame. Soul Village is a honey, but it's Mi Hermano (My brother) that kills it everytime.

Weird though, the track listings on the back cover don't seem to match.
Thanks, I'm loving this one!
And you're right. "Mi Hermano" is killer. Thanks again!
ReplyDeletewhat a fucking peach - top share !
ReplyDeleteart - thanks for the info. not that unusual for mainstream (I think) that the tracklist on the sleeve doesn't match the order on the record...
