Donald Byrd: Stepping Into Tomorrow (LP)

"Stepping Into Tomorrow" was the third album of Motown-inspired jazz-funk and R&B recorded by trumpeter Donald Byrd under the direction of producer Larry Mizell in 1974. Like its two predecessors - "Black Byrd" and "Street Lady" - "Stepping Into Tomorrow" was a bestseller that was also celebrated by jazz critics and would later serve as an almost inexhaustible source of samples for acid jazz artists such as Us3.
