Carol Duboc Feat. Hubert Laws & Jeff Lorber [2021] - Swept Away [Gold Note] (Full Album)

Another track from the album 'Restless' by Carol Duboc featuring keyboardist Jeff Lorber and flutist Hubert Laws on this track. I featured 'Love Don't Get In The Way' earlier this week but the album gets better with each listen (and critics acclaim it to be her best yet - this, I believe, is her ninth to date since her debut in 2001) so I've provided a link to the full album.
