Vinyl LP pressing. Considering the quality of the vocalists, instrumentalists, and songwriters who comprised Bridge, the Oakland/Berkeley, California septet should have been big. Dissension within the group and conflicts with producers doomed the band, which spent four weeks in Boulder, Colorado in 1981 cutting an album for Ilene Berns' CBS distributed Bang label that never saw the light of day. Now, after nearly 20 years in mothballs, comes a collection of the demos that helped the group land the Bang deal. These selections reveal a sophisticated fusion of soul, jazz, rock, and latin elements that placed Bridge well ahead of it's time. Crying for Love, Stella, From the Darkness to the Light, Fire Burning, Waiting Patiemtly, He Say She Say Game, Sweet ; Wonderful, Out There in Space, No Where Love Affair, Rivers of Love, Turn to Love, Next to Me, Reach Out, Listen, Summer Sky, Loves in Your Corner
