Bob James - Two (1975)


Some nice, breezy, propulsive jazz-funk for your Sunday. Led by keyboardist Bob James, Two immediately lands right on that cool, cloudy, honey-sweet spot just before fusion becomes elevator music, and, for the most part stays there for the next 40 minutes, taking a small, pitch-perfect soul-jazz detour ("I Feel a Song in My Heart") along the way.

Track listing:
1. Take Me to the Mardi Gras
2. I Feel a Song in My Heart
3. The Golden Apple
4. Farandole (L'Arlesienne Suite #2)
5. You're As Right As Rain
6. Dream Journey

Night on bold mountain
