Les McCann’s first self-produced album for Atlantic marks his complete transition into a mainstream pop/R&B singer. River High, River Low is comprised almost entirely of compact pop performances. It is amiable and measured, the completely opposite of sprawling McCann opuses like Layers and Invitation to Openness. McCann’s model here is obviously Stevie Wonder, and he borrows the sweet, smooth approach of You Are the Sunshine of My Life for Loved You Full In Every Way, I’ve Been Thinking About My Problems and Baby Just So Much Faith

With River High, River Low Les McCann completes his transformation from jazz to soul. While elements of fusion still creep in, this is first and foremost a straight-up funk album that shines the spotlight on deep, hard-hitting grooves and McCann's gritty vocals. While Stevie Wonder served as a reference point on previous efforts, the cosmic mind-funkery of the c collective seeps into cuts like "I've Been Thinking About My Problems" and "Woman Come Home.
