Love Song (Gary Bartz album)

Love Song is an album by saxophonist Gary Bartz released by the Vee-Jay label in 1977.

Reception
AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "A reasonably enjoyable but not essential release, this album features altoist Gary Bartz (doubling on soprano) performing some originals and older R&B tunes with a four-piece rhythm section ... The music overall is generally danceable and funky, sounding a bit dated despite some decent solos. Not Gary Bartz's worst (from a jazz standpoint), but also far from his best".
