James Mason – Rhythm of Life

I first read about this cult classic in a soul jazz e-newsletter back in the day when I didn’t have streaming and e-newsletters was the thing. I listened to it on shitty laptop speakers via youtube. I looked it up on discogs and then promptly shut my laptop when I saw the price. Out of curiosity I looked it up today – an original last sold in April this year for the unusually specific amount of $827.03.

This is of course a repress.

I stumbled across a copy on our recent trip. It had been so long since I’d heard this album that I’d forgotten what it was like except for the title track.
