From 1976 ‘Marchin On’ was the first Heath Brothers album and it featured the three brothers Albert (drums), Percy (bass), Jimmy (saxophones/ flute) plus pianist Stanley Cowell. This Strata East album is well sought after for the outstanding ‘Smiling Billy Suite’. The 4-part opus is mesmerising with Part II being an outstanding slow bass led groove. The mellow ‘Maimoun’ has a mid-70’s Lonnie Liston Smith vibe. Classic 70’s Spiritual Jazz.
