So I have been archiving all of the Gap Mangione albums that were never released digitally (CD or otherwise) and will be mentioning some of these LP's. This 1972 release on Mercury records is a collection of covers and original works. The fidelity was above average on this recording, but not excellent. This album may have the first release of "Diana in the Autumn Wind" which can be had on CD, but produced much later.
Notable musicians here were Jon Faddis, Snooky Young and Clark Terry on horns, Gerry Niewood on sax. Only a few songs feature these instruments. Many of the songs have a Bossa Nova feel to them. Most notably "Theme from 'The Burglars'".
Hope you enjoy!
