Description:
Once upon a Dream` enlisted the aid of saxman King Curtis, flautist Hubert Laws, trumpeter Mel Lastie and a string orchestra to move into jazzier territory -- this was a long way from `Good Lovin`! But the bands grittier soul influences successfully anchored the artistic pretensions; like another ambitious 1968 release, the Byrds `Notorious Byrd Brothers`, the original aesthetic of the group shone through the high-concept production touches. Check out the mono mix here, too -- its a LOT different from the stereo! Includes `Intro/Easy Rollin; Rainy Day; Please Love Me; Its Wonderful; Im Gonna Love You; My Hawaii; My World; Silly Girl; Singin the Blues Too Long; Sattva`, and `Finale: Once upon a Dream`.
