Disco was king in 1978 and Quincy bows low with the ebullient dance hit ‘Stuff Like That’. Sounds also has its healthy quota of elegantly produced soul ballads while Quincy still treats us to something fresh and memorable within the jazz sphere with a gorgeous chart of Herbie Hancock's ‘Tell Me a Bedtime Story’. Hancock himself sits in on electric piano, and violinist Harry Lookofsky overdubs one of Hancock's transcribed solos on 15 violins. With a murderers row of guest vocalists: Nick Ashford, Valerie Simpson, Chaka Khan, Patti Austin, Gwen Guthrie, and Luther Vandross, a rhythm section featuring Steve Gadd, Michael Boddicker, and Wah Wah Watson, and a horn section that included Snooky Young, Jimmy Cleveland, Hubert Laws, Jerome Richardson, Buddy Collette, plus killer solos from Tom Scott and Michael Brecker, not to mention that sax solo from George Young, are you kidding?!
