      One of the most important albums to mix jazz and funk in the      ██░
      mid-70s, "Gears" is a masterful collaboration between             ██
      Hammond and producers the Mizell brothers. To mark its 40th       ██
      anniversary, the album has been remastered from new               ██
      transfers and is presented with six previously unissued           ██
      bonus tracks.                                                     ██
                                                                        ██
      Johnny Hammond's "Gears" is one of the essential albums of        ██
      the jazz funk era. It sits alongside Lonnie Liston Smith's        ██
      "Expansions" and Donald Byrd's "Places And Spaces" as one of      ██
      the perennial recordings championed by DJs and collectors.        ██
                                                                        ██
      Hammond was a veteran of the industry who had been recording      ██
      for nearly 20 years when he signed with Fantasy's Milestone       ██
      label in 1975. Having made his name as Johnny 'Hammond'           ██
      Smith at Prestige, he dropped his surname and signed to           ██
      Creed Taylor's Kudu label for a run of four highly                ██
      successful albums before releasing "Gambler's Life" on            ██
      Taylor's new Salvation label. "Gambler's Life" was produced       ██
      by Larry and Fonce Mizell who were hot on the back of their       ██
      success at Blue Note with Donald Byrd and Bobbi Humphrey.         ██
                                                                        ██
      The Mizell brothers had grown up in New Jersey before             ██
      studying at Howard University where they first met Donald         ██
      Byrd, a tutor at the university. Larry went into                  ██
      aeronautical engineering and Fonce became part of the             ██
      Corporation writing partnership for Motown. Fonce had             ██
      immediate success with a string of early hits for the             ██
      Jackson 5 and soon suggested Fonce join him on the West           ██
      Coast where they launched Sky High Productions. Their first       ██
      production was Donald Byrd's "Black Byrd" which became Blue       ██
      Note's biggest seller.                                            ██
                                                                        ██
      Producing Hammond's debut for Milestone made sense as they        ██
      had already worked with him and the label. They set up in         ██
      Fantasy's studio with their usual session musicians and           ██
      recorded a perfectly judged six-track album that stretched        ██
      from the crunching funk of "Gears" to the spacey groove of        ██
      "Lost On 23rd Street".                                            ██
                                                                        ██
      Re-mastered from a new 24/96 transfer of the original tape,       ██
      this 40th anniversary edition enables us to appreciate the        ██
      album in a new light, with six previously unissued bonus          ██
      out-takes - five fantastic new numbers and a skeletal take        ██
      of "Can't We Smile?" that allows us a better understanding        ██
      of the recording process. The Mizells would rehearse the          ██
      rhythm section before recording a whole section with              ██
      Hammond. They would then add sweetening: strings, backing         ██
      vocals, some solos. With Hammond already on the master, much      ██
      of the solos were cut live, resulting in the out-takes being      ██
      more fully finished than they would be, for example, on a         ██
      Donald Byrd recording.                                            ██
                                                                        ██
