About This Item

Bassist Henry Franklin's 1972 for Black Jazz, The Skipper, is one of the highlights in a tag catalog full of many, and his 1974 follow-up, The Skipper at Home (InchThe SkipperInch is Franklin's nickname), lives up to it's predecessor's high standard and might even surpass it. Which is no surprise given that a lot of the same players are on it, including trumpeter/flugelhornist Oscar Brashear, tenor/soprano saxophonist Charles Owens, and pianist Bill Henderson (here billed as Kemang Sunduza). But The Skipper at Home also boasts ace talents like keyboardist Kirk Lightsey (memorably featured on the Roland Haynes Black Jazz 2nd Wave), trombonist Al Hall, Jr. (who appeared on Black Jazz releases from Doug Carn, Chester Thompson, and Calvin Keys), and drummer Leon InchNduguInch Chancler, who's played with everyone from Miles Davis to Joe Henderson. The result is an album that, like The Skipper, is rooted in bop but one that nods to some of the currents that were swirling in jazz at the time; it's a little freer, a little more electric. And, as is true of just about every Black Jazz , the ensemble work is remarkably intuitive and swinging, driven by Franklin's melodic, inventive bass playing. This remastered and annotated package comes in a blue with black swirl pressing limited to just 500 copies! Album Tracks 1. Blue Lights 2. What Was 3. Soft Spirit 4. The Magic Boy 5. Venus Fly Trap 6. Waltz for Boobuss
