and Sheree Smith

The producer’s hand is prominent — not least in the sampled “yeah”s and “uh”s that give the album a hip-hop-indebted confidence — and many of the songs feature the 4/4 beats and deftly employed effects usually associated with house music

balancing the genre’s tradition with its future and reflecting the melting pot of talent and diversity within the current scene

This re-issue faithfully replicates the original 1972 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl
