Thanks Paros
Might I say I prefer her blue note stuff? I know it's the common opinion but it's also mine...
And just like Mark I'm still listening to those 45s/2step comps you gave us...wicked!

Paros: I got most of Bobbi Humphery albums, but this one I have not heard of it must be rare. Thank you, once I have listened to it, will leave further comments.

emile63 said...

Just listened to the album, wow, the thre tracks that really stand out for me are the title track, Sweet 'n Low and Love when in your arms. Thank you, you are the man.

THANKS for the link and upload paros!
It's nice to find these undiscovered gems. I only ever heard a couple of Bobbi Humphrey songs back in the day so this album is a bonus. And with the calibre of featured musos...what more can I say?!

Thanks again, fiakool.

modernist02 said...

Thx 4 this one!

thanks for this rare album.. although it only shows Bobbi is better flautist than singer..

Brotha' J said...

been looking for a digital copy of this for awhile. it's a shame that cbs records have not reissued a lot of their '70's jazz classics after all this time. thanks for sharing bobbi!

zardoz1984 said...

May be a bit too much of singin' & not enough flutin' for my taste… anyway, a welcome addition to the Bobbi's adventures in the realm of grooviness. Thx dear paros!

makuma said...

Hi Paros,

Thanks for this beautiful treat! I didn't even know about this one because it hasn't shown up on Discogs (I wonder why?). You probably know all about the incredible Ralph MacDonald already. He was part of so many fabulous records (too many to list, everyone check out his page, and the records he appears on at Discogs of you haven't:
http://www.discogs.com/artist/Ralph+MacDonald

His unbelievable record "The Path" is a heart-lifting journey. Everyone should have a chance to hear & see this lp.

I can't thank you enough for the Bobbi. Peace and keep spreading the musical word.

Jerome
