Warm up with Bob James at a Fireside Chat
Most people know only fragments of his music via samples in hip hop tracks. Now here’s the whole story, told by the man himself: Bob James.
Bob James’s music has informed and inspired some of the most important producers and musicians in the post-disco era, and has been sampled by hip hop and dance producers alike. At the same time his take on fusion has been a constant key presence in the development of jazz since the mid-seventies. And, of course, his studio work with folks like Dionne Warwick, Roberta Flack and Quincy Jones well deserves the legendary status it has with those in the know.

Happy 75th Birthday to Bob James!
Over time, things change. Styles evolve. Clothes, hair, production, and music itself.
The icing on the cake may change flavors, but if you get down the cake itself, it is the same as it has always been.
The soul of music is the same, providing the nourishment to uplift our lives, and ambition to dream.
It is said that there are two days that are great in a person’s life…the day we are born, and the day we discover why.
We wish a special 75th birthday to Bob James.
Thank you for all the positivity you have brought to the world…
