REFLECTIONS OF A GOLDEN DREAM (VINYL)

Lonnie Liston Smith was one of the most
important musicians to emerge in jazz in the
1970s. His 1975 album 'Expansions' is one of the
foundation stones of modern dance music and his
recordings have been sampled by many of the
biggest artists in the world. His music was a
cosmically inspired spiritual interpretation of the
music he had been making during his time with
Pharoah Sanders, Gato Barbieri and Miles Davis.
Released in 1976,"Reflections On A Golden
Dream", the follow-up to "Expansions", was his
fifth album for Flying Dutchman and featured the
core band of the Cosmic Echoes, including his
brother Donald Smith, David Hubbard and Wilby
Fletcher.
As for the music, this album is a classic, with the
funky 'Get Down Everybody (It's Time For World
Peace)', the reflective 'Quiet Dawn' and
'Meditations' and the sumptuous 'Beautiful
Woman'. "Reflections Of A Golden Dream" was
also the first of Lonnie's albums to feature his own
vocals.
