Shuggie Otis was a musical visionary whose early 1970s recordings showed he could do it all, writing, arranging, performing, and producing some of the decade's most satisfying, innovative, and, unfortunately, overlooked music.
This reissue of his 1974 Inspiration Information album - a soulful song cycle that took three years to create and was worth every minute - ranges from early drum machine-driven experiments like "XL-30" and "Aht Uh Mi Hed" to Otis's most stunning pop confection.
