Robert Christgau in 1974 referred to this album as “a waste”.
However!
Given time, commonsense, two ears, and a 2001 re-release on David Burn’s record label;
Shuggie Otis’ Inspiration Information finally gets the attention and respect it deserves.

Self-produced, almost exclusively self-tracked, borrowing from funk, psych, soul, and lounge; this album stands as testament to Shug’s singular vision.
