"Hey, Love"

1971

Cadet Concept #CC 50006, Made in USA

1x Vinyl LP, Beige label, Cadet in Fuchsia colour (Not sure which one) 

Cadet Concept as a younger subsidiary of the Cadet label, and their first release was the 1967 debut by a conceptual group called The Rotary Connection, formed by Marshall Chess with Stepney acting as co-producer and arranger. The group was designed as a way for the label to tap into the psychedelic era

It was Stepney’s studio genius that made Rotary Connection’s mix of acid-laced rock, classical strings (courtesy of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra), and Minnie Riperton’s operatic voice hang together.

'I am the Black Gold of the Sun' was the standout sone, covered many times, with the best known by Nuyorican Soul, 1997.

Hard album to find and in lovely condition.

Nice weighty early copy that looks new. Sounds amazing! Think of Marlene Shaw.
