The Bobby Hamilton Quintet Unlimited『Dream Queen』LP
★First press limited edition ★With obi ★Color vinyl (clear gold)
Every track is killer! The pinnacle of rare jazz groove! This legendary album, which combines all the elements of rare groove - sound, visuals, and rarity - is reborn in a new format!
This album, recorded in 1972 with keyboardist and percussionist Bobby Hamilton at the center, was released on a minor New York label at the time, but the wonderful sound and rarity of the album have made it such a gem that it has been dubbed a "legendary masterpiece" among diggers! The album begins with "Pearl (Among The Swine)" (A1), which begins with an interplay between electric piano and vibraphone before cascading into a funky groove. Then comes "Priscilla" (A2), a mellow groove with a soul-bossa feel. "In The Mouth Of The Beast" (A3), an Afro-jazz funk track, begins with a spiritual intro and then intertwines percussive beats and horn sections. "Roll Your Own" (B1), based on an impressive bass line, gradually builds up with electric piano, percussion, and horn sections, building into a killer funk filled with a sense of speed. Finally, there's the exquisite slow ballad "Dream Queen" (B2), where the electric piano, vibraphone, and horn sections create an indescribable sense of melancholy. Anyone who listens will agree that this is a killer album!
