Johnny Hammond - Storm Warning (Remastered 2025) (1977) [Hi-Res]

Recorded after his classic work with Larry Mizell, and produced by Johnny himself, but still trying to be very much in the Mizell-sounding vein! The group includes Carol Kaye on guitar, Ron Carter on bass, Ndugu on drums, and Bill Summers on percussion – and while the album is as over-the-top fantastic as Johnny's Gears LP, it's still a nice batch of California funky fusion tracks. Titles include "Lonely Dreamer", "Lady Smooth", "California Lovers", and "Quiet Storm".

Guitar – John Abercrombie
Vocals – Roger Kenerly-Saint , Stephanie Spruill
