Not to be confused with the Henry Threadgill led unit, the Japanese jazz group, or the massively popular French duo, this is the group led by the husband and wife team of Tom and Googie Copolla, on keys and vocals respectively, who cut one record for Herbie Mann's Embryo label in 1971. Produced by Mann, Air's sole release is a tasty slice of jazz-rock and soul-rock with vocals reminiscent of the great Laura Nyro. Featuring help from Randy Brecker and Jan Hammer this Queensbred group steams through ten originals and close out with a scorching version of the classic I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free.
