Description
Small party in the lounge, lights low, and Bobbi Humphrey’s Fancy Dancer does that sly thing where the room starts to sway. Produced by the Mizell Brothers for Blue Note in 1975, it’s flute-led jazz-funk with glide, not bluster. Uno Esta bumps on a supple groove, congas and Rhodes tucked tight while Bobbi’s lines float above. On The Trip the feel is a little grittier, clavinet chatter and a pocket so deep you forget the time. The title cut is pure air, melodic turns you end up humming all week.
This LP pressing lets the low end sit deeper, so the percussion breathes and the bass moves with more authority. Imaging is tidier too, which suits these layered arrangements. File it next to Donald Byrd’s Mizell-era Blue Note and the broader mid-70s jazz-funk shelf. You can buy Bobbi Humphrey records online with us if you’d rather order from home. A replayable record for Sunday afternoons or late drives across town, and one that shows how tasteful her band could be. Listeners will notice how the rhythm section keeps things clipped and light, leaving Bobbi room to sing through the flute rather than over it. It lands softly but sticks with you.
