This album is definitely more eclectic than Sun Goddess and is more focused on rhythmic sounds, though the vocals and strings still take their place on these songs. The cover and back cover photo tell the listener a lot about where this music is going, and it makes good on its promise. Released in 1976, Salongo has got that refined EWF production courtesy of Charles Stepney and Maurice White, and great piano/keyboard performances from Ramsey Lewis. Good one for the collection.
