DeBaser reviews praise Rotary Connection's adventurous psychedelic soul, singling out Hey, Love as a keystone and Peace as an irreverent Christmas classic. Reviews highlight Minnie Riperton's vocals and Charles Stepney's arrangements. The coverage frames the band as a bold, artful bridge between soul, psychedelia and orchestral pop.

For:Listeners of 1960s/70s psychedelic soul, fans of experimental pop and collectors of unusual Christmas albums.

 This is the shocking (or rather, shocked) truth told by the Rotary Connection in what's undoubtedly the best Christmas album you'll ever get your hands on.

 However, I don't think I've ever come across the expression "keystone", which, when closely examined, is the one that best applies to this album, the final recording by the visionary and surprising ensemble known as Rotary Connection, an amazing entity in the most psychedelic and progressive American soul from the late '60s to the early '70s.
