 FROM THE WEB:

 Under the directorial supervision of Quinn Harris, who studied at the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Boston, The Masterminds romp through a host of soul/funk permutations on this extremely rare original pressing of Reynolds Record's 1970 LP (not a re-issue).  All In The Soul is Harris masterpiece. A unique twist on California soul, it s elevated by sophisticated arrangements and grounded by the rough and rugged playing of the Masterminds, a racially mixed group from San Francisco headed by Bianca Thornton on lead vocals. In addition to the musicians of The Masterminds themselves, Harris plays sax, flute, piano and organ on the recordings, weaving a lightly jazzy element into proceedings. Some pieces benefit from a vocal presence, most notably the almost operatic, soaring tones of Lady Bianca, which are especially essential to those 7" tracks. The music gets a bit more tangled up and messy on the title track, with the band's tight, authoritative rhythm only just stopping the production from collapsing into all-out free music mania. An interesting hybrid of styles within the grey areas that lie between jazz, funk and soul.
