Hubbard is phenomenal on this. The arrangements are deep. Sounds fantastic. If you’re lucky enough to find this one don’t hesitate.

From 1973 (or so) on it becomes a lot harder to find a gem in Hubbard's prodigious output. There are actually a lot more substandard releases than really good ones. "Outpost" on Enya is great. The live "A Little Night Music" is also fabulous. I would not quite put this LP up with those two but very solid release all around

An absolutely brilliant and way overlooked LP, full of sweet jazz vibes. Ranging from the typical late 70's Hancock inspired electric jazz-funk like the title track 'The Love Connection', to the serene and almost ambient, 'This Dream'. And no doubt a few house heads will know 'Little Sunflower' from the A-side of Theo Parrish's Ugly Edit 3, also used infamously by Pepe Bradock on 'Burning'. Classic Jazz from one of the later horn masters.
