Lonette McKee - Words & Music (1978) Appreciation Thread



I know I'm diggin in the crates with this one, but I wanted to test the musical knowledge of some of my fellow org'ers who may be hip to this one.
If you're not and you just happen to come across it, PLEASE PICK IT UP!
It's an absolute gem.
"Train Tracks" was minor hit in some cities, but this album never got the recognition it truly deserved.

Players:
Patrice Rushen: Keyboards
Harvey Mason: Drums
Lee Ritenour: Guitar
Abraham Laborial: Bass
Lonette Mckee: Piano and Vocals

It's on my list of: "I Wish they would release this on CD!" biggrin

Usually find it in the $1 bins at used record stores. I have about 5 copies (just to find the cleanest copy) and ripped them for the iPod.

I knew you would like this gap! biggrin

Harlepolis

From what I heard of her site,,,she could sing nod

And I could see Patrice Rushen nod although, its no sense co-signin' with ya'll and I haven't even heard the damn thing(which I want, RIGHT NOW razz ).

And she did resemble Ms.Horne,,,,loved her as Sister love




She was the sassiest thing among that bunch nod
