"With a jacket adorned by mystical symbols of every faith and tribe Smith could think of, Renaissance is a pleasant paean to Peace, Love and Understanding that goes down easily and almost tracelessly ... the mildly spacy funk patterns and lightweight age of Aquarius atmosphere rise not too far above the level of hip '70s makeout music. Still, you could do a lot, lot worse in that genre".

"Serving his apprenticeship in Pharoah Sanders' band in the late 60s, Smith was also a sideman with Miles Davis in the early 70s but is best remembered for his work on producer Bob Thiele's Flying Dutchman label. 'Renaissance' (...) was his final offering for Thiele's label and is an overlooked classic. The key cuts are a mellow chunk of astral funk called "Space Lady" and Latin-infused "Mardi Gras (Carnival)"".
