Barbara & Ernie - album Prelude to... 1971

Little gem worth re-discovering, a one-off collaboration between Barbara Massey and Ernie Calabria with the orchestra master arranger and conductor Eumir Deodato and the cream of America's early 70s sessioners.
Wonderful soulful blend of funk, jazz, folk and why not some psychedelic hints.
