About
Available on vinyl for the first time since its original release 50 years ago, the downtempo-funk extravaganza People & Love is a crate-digger's treasure chest, filled with soul-jazz grooves and mesmerizing vibraphone textures laid down by Johnny Lytle, who was touted as "the greatest vibes player in the world" by the big band legend Lionel Hampton.
The album was cut from the original analog tapes (AAA) by Kevin Gray, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI, and comes packaged in a tip-on jacket.

Not for nothing was Lytle known as the ‘soulful rebel.’ His music had a lot of feeling as well as a hard edge that would make the hip-hop generation reach for its samplers and drum machines if they were lucky enough to find his vinyl nuggets. With that in mind, these handsomely packaged reissues are most welcome.
