Bobbi HUMPHREY - Fancy Dancer
BLUE NOTE
Jazz / Contemporary / FusionNew Vinyl LP - Ltd ED 180g / 23 EUR
American Bobbi Humphrey is one of the most well loved jazz flautists. She turned out plenty of vibrant albums, none less so than this, Fancy Dancer, which was her fifth. It came on Blue Note in 1975 and is full of all killer no filler gold. It also saw her, along with producers the Mizell Brothers aka Larry and Fonce, come up with a fresh new largely instrumental funk sound. Weaving in everything from world music to soul-jazz to club music to pop, it’s a widescreen sound that is packed with uplifting flute from Humphrey and lush production that reveals something new with each listen.
