Hey Colin could you please give me the name of the track Boomer is playing on ? Is it called Firepower ?

If so , this is another example of record company re-packaging in action. I say that because that track was originally released on an earlier Gato album entitled Euphoria , which I have. It was recorded as the theme for a TV movie starring Sophia Loren. That was released by the A & M label.


Just trying to make sure my collection isn't missing anything, LOL

(Track 8 ) Speak Low

Arranged by Jay Chattaway


Features the Late and Great Eric Gale on Guitar solo.
Anthony Jackson - Bass
Richard Tee - Keyboards (sadly also no longer with us)
Jimmy Maelen & Miguel Vaidez-Pomier - Percussion
Billy Cobham - Drums

Yes
A & M

The Drummers on this collection are all Top Drummers.


And just found this
in Very Very Small writing it says published 1976 ,1977, 1978 and 1979
on the bottom of the back case.


Yes I guess no one hired all those Top Drummers in one session - It Look so Cool on the listings,
so a Sneak Collection from A&M California.


For me , I did not have this Billy Cobham drum track
and great to Hear Lenny and Ndugu, again.
