LP - CBS 1977 : )

This album features Lewis’s collaboration with Stevie Wonder on the songs “Spring High” and the title track, which Wonder wrote and arranged :+1:

A more sincere album than the funky Salongo, and Sun Goddess which indeed goes off the scale on my funk-o-meter :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :+1:
