    Bobbi Humphrey Blacks And Blues (1974)

    Blue Note
    • Bobbi Humphrey – Harlem River Drive
    • Bobbi Humphrey – Jasper Country Man
    • 1. Chicago, Damn
    • 2. Harlem River Drive
    • 3. Just A Love Child
    • 4. Blacks And Blues
    • 5. Jasper Country Man
    • 6. Baby's Gone

    Reissue of this seminal album! This is perhaps the pinnacle of the classic Mizell brothers albums (alongside perhaps Donald Byrd's "Places and Spaces", or Rance Allen's "Say My Friend"). Just killer tunes including the hypnotic "Harlem River Drive".
