Released on the Cadet label in 1970, this album’s wondrous mix of spiritual and funky jazz and unique instrumentation defy categorization. Harpist Ashby adds the koto, a 13-stringed Japanese instrument to her arsenal, and her long-time arranger Richard Evans blends flutes, vibraphone, oboe, kalimba, and Ashby’s own vocals into a singular and soul-affirming set. Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
