Issued in September 1969, Another Voyage is one of the Ramsey Lewis Trio's finest records making it into the R&B Top 35.
With the lineup of Lewis, drummer Maurice White, and bassist Cleveland Eaton, the LP serves as a prime example of the muscular Chicago sound while preserving the pianist's trademark elegance.
In addition to such throbbing, kinetic workouts as Eddie Harris' "Bold and Black" and "If You've Got It Flaunt It, Pts. 1-2," there's a nice mid-groovin' cover of Stevie Wonder's "My Cherie Amour," Harris' contemplative "How Beautiful Is Spring," and the sumptuous "Opus V," written by Charles Stepney.
Of special note is future Earth, Wind & Fire leader White's use of the kalimba on "Uhuru."

LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, fresh labels - barely a spindle mark to be seen, possibly just one per side
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT
Both surfaces retain their original deep glossy sheen - a few marks are visible but nothing of any major audible significance
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT
Play-checked at volume the record plays beautifully throughout with a deep, rich and warm sound - just the odd tick but nothing I found in the slightest intrusive
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Crisp, sharp sleeve with a deep gloss to the front laminate and a clean untreated white back
