A Wonderfully Emotional Electronic Tour De Force. Completely Improvised In A Single Four-Hour Session In The Studio By Jolly And A Superb, Versatile Rhythm Section: Drummer Paul Humphrey, Guitarist John Pisano, And The Ever-Present Chuck Berghofer On Bass (With Milt Holland And Emil Richards Contributing As Well). Jolly Plays Not Only Acoustic Piano, But Wurlitzer Electronic Piano, Accordion, Musette, Sano Vox And The Hammond B-3. Minimal Overdubbing Was Done Later. "Seasons" Unleashes Jolly's Imagination, And He Creates A Marvelous Tapestry Of Sound That Both Moves The Listener And Swings Spontaneously. Beautifully Produced By Herb Alpert — Who Brought Him To A&M — The Record Is Structured As A Continuous Suite — With Only The Side Break On The LP Interrupting The Flow — And It Comes To An Exciting, Carefully Graded Climax On "The Indian's Summer," With Jolly Pounding The Grand Piano And A Sudden Burst Of Big Band Fireworks Courtesy Of Bill Holman. It Doesn't End There However, As The Closing Cut, A Near Nostalgic Weeper Cum Slippery Little Funk Number Called "Pete's Jolly" Attests, Sending It Out On A Fingerpopping Note. There Is Arch Humor In Tracks Like The Scurrying "Bees" And The Sauntering "Plummer Park" (Which Has Been Sampled Plentifully By The Hip-Hop Generation And Contains The Tight Popping Jazz Funk That Defined The CTI Label, As Does The Last Tune On The LP Side, "Springs")

VERY RARE AND MUCH SOUGHT AFTER ALBUM

PAYMENT EXPECTED WITH 5 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE
