"Espirito" is a suite that extends and expands the vision of Lawson Rollins’ critically-acclaimed debut solo release "Infinita" with thirteen compositions that delve deep into the roots of world music. Espirito’s wide-ranging musical palette spans continents and cultures without losing its bedrock groove or playful sense of adventure.

"Light as a Feather" is one of the era's defining LPs, what many musicians have called a perfect album – the ultimate expression of the period's optimism. Its sheer, explosive joy surprised Chick Corea when he listened to it recently; he recalls in the liner notes searching then for a spiritual purity in his personal and creative lives. Even the band's name, Return to Forever, reflected his need to "deliver from inside" to "get back to the vision".

Airto Moreira and Flora Purim, the legendary King and Queen of Brazilian Jazz, have captivated audiences for over six decades with their vibrant albums and exhilarating live performances. With a dedicated global fan base including the UK’s jazz funk and jazz dance scene to Japan’s concert halls, the power couple continues to make waves in the industry – Flora’s ‘If You Will’ (2022) album was even nominated for a Grammy!

This is the album that launched Flora Purim's solo career with great promise following her magnificent stint with Chick Corea's first incarnation of Return to Forever. Most of the tracks on this album sound like they would have fit very nicely onto one of RTF's first two LPs, with bandmate Stanley Clarke not only lending support on electric and acoustic bass, but also contributing original compositions and arrangements to the mix. The rest of the supporting cast is not too shabby either, including sax and flute man Joe Henderson, keyboard whiz kid George Duke, guitarist David Amaro, and Purim's other half, percussion legend Airto Moreira.
