The 1974 album was the natural predecessor to Johnny Hammond's classic 'Gears' (1975) recorded with the Mizell brothers the following year. It contains the rare groove/jazz funk anthems 'Star Borne' and 'Yesterday Was Cool'.'Gambler's Life' was the album where Hammond switched from his customary organ to electric piano at a time the Mizell brothers had just produced Donald Byrd and Bobbi Humphrey for Blue Note.
