Description
In 1975 Orr and Harris started to record one of the best unheard projects in recording history their album "Spread love". Around that time Orr was asked by the Oberlin Obsevatory in Ohio to do a presentation on music production. After the presentation he heard a singer who gave him goose bumps he had never experienced before. Her name was Bernadine Mitchell. She was eventually to provide the perfect vocal finish to one of the key songs Orr had written for the album "Feelings" a superb mid-tempo ballad. The opening song "Ecstasy, Fantasy, Dreamland" just about sums up what pressure these guys were under, to put their positive, soulful message across. "Here I Go Through These Changes" is a modern soul classic and an auto biographical song and was descriptive of Orr’s ability to let go of something he loved dearly, even knowing it was going to put him through change after change. The song was later covered by soul legend Johnny Taylor and released as a single. The first single to support the album was the title track "Spread love" a superb, percussive led modern dancer, sounding unbelievably fresh and up to date considering it was recorded 40 years ago. The skipping dance beat of the jazz influenced instrumental "Piece of Mind" wouldn’t be out of place at todays Soul/Jazz clubs. Jazz is a recurring factor throughout the whole of this album, just listen to "You Opened My Eyes to the World".
