Born and bred in the L.A. melting pot of Watts, Gil Bernal was a hugely prolific saxophonist who performed and recorded throughout the '50s with the crème de la crème of the citiy's R&B talent. Signed up with Leiber & Stoller's Spark Records, Gil also featured on some of that writing team's biggest and most influential hits. This super-rare solo record is a beat-heavy, jazzy number, delivered in a swinging style -- currently one of the most in-demand R&B spins on the scene, crossing over to the Northern Soul circuit, too.
