Biography

Bob James is credited with raising the profile of jazz fusion within the mainstream, and his influence has resulted in two of his tracks "Nautilus" and "Take Me to the Mardi Gras", being in heavy demand for hip-hop samples.

While playing at the Notre Dame Jazz Festival in 1963, he was discovered by Quincy Jones. This fortuitous meeting resulted in Bold Conceptions, the first of over thirty solo… Read more in Amazon's Bob James Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Sounds great but there's a problem, January 30, 2006
By 
J. McKeon "jazzbo" (Williston Park, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: One (Audio CD)
As far as the sound of this remastered CD is concerned, I have no complaints. No matter how many times I listen to ONE, it still sounds wonderful to me. I also have a vinyl copy of this album. Now some other people who have this album on vinyl might remember that the original vinyl issue of Bob James' ONE had liner notes. Those liner notes were very informative and should have been reproduced for this remastered CD. Why weren't they? Does anybody else out there have a problem with this? Anyway, I have to give this album one less star than I normally would for reasons that have nothing to do with the music itself. I can only echo the sentiments of other reviewers that have already stated how wonderful this music is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't let the album cover intimidate you..., July 23, 2003
By 
Matthew Shapiro (Detroit, Michigan) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: One (Audio CD)
...because there are some SERIOUS GROOVES on this one. "In The Garden" is a very laid back reinterpretation of Pachelbel's "Canon In D" (and it's the version that I'd want played at my wedding when I find the right one)...but the one that made this for me is "Nautilus", which any hip-hop fan should own because every rapper and his mom has sampled this song at one point or another....most notably Ghostface Killah ("Daytona 500") and Run DMC ("Beats To The Rhyme")...and is a jazz-funk CLASSIC.

5.0 out of 5 stars from a non-jazz fan, November 8, 1999
This review is from: One (Audio CD)
I'll tell you right now I don't know anything about jazz. I bought this CD because Nautilus was playing at my record store and I recognized the sample from Daytona 500 (plus that little weird sound from somewhere.) Anyway, the CD is great, and if you don't believe me, ask any of the millions of hip-hop types who have sampled this disc, from Rakim to Ultramag's to DJ Shadow.
