Remastered from the original ¼ inch tapes by Alex Wharton at Abbey Road Studios, Afro-Harping is filled front-to-back with sumptuous and hypnotic grooves. Its African percussion, soulful orchestrations, in-the-pocket rhythms and Dorothy's virtuosity take it far beyond jazzy mood music and made it a favourite of beat heads and producers; sampled by Pete Rock, Kendrick Lamar, Jay Dee (aka J Dilla), Madlib, Flying Lotus and many others. This deluxe version features eight bonus tracks, alternate takes from the surviving four-track session reels that are arguably superior to those on the album, including an explosive rendition of the single, 'Soul Vibrations', extended versions of its title track and 'Little Sunflower' and two fantastic jazzy readings of 'Theme from Valley of the Dolls'.Producer: Richard EvansGenre: JazzStyle: Soul JazzRelease Year: 2024Tracks: 1: Soul Vibrations2: Games3: Action Line4: Lonely Girl5: Life Has Its Trials6: Afro-harping7: Little Sunflower8: Theme from 'Valley of the Dolls'9: Come Live With Me10: The Look of Love11: Action Line (Master A, Take 2)12: Afro-harping (Alt.
