2001 remaster; subtitled World Psychedelic Classics 2: California Soul. "Otis' smooth, trippy soul-funk opus, Inspiration Information -- first released in 1974, now remastered and reissued by David Byrne's Luaka Bop label with four bonus tracks from 1971's Freedom Flight -- was his third album for Epic records; in the Stevie Wonder soul-auteur vein, he wrote, sang and played almost every instrument on the album. Songs like 'Happy House' and 'Strawberry Letter 23' (a number one R&B hit for the Brothers Johnson) embraced the incense-and-peppermint psychedelia of the times without falling out of the pocket. The electronic grooves of 'XL-30' and the Isaac Hayes-like power of 'Not Available' reveals an expansive creativity that appeared unlimited -- maybe even a Prince-size talent in the making." --Rolling Stone
