Liner Notes

Bobbi Humphrey. Where's she coming from?

Where's she going to?

If we're straight on our priorities, you'll be listening to her album while I tell you about some of the answers.

First principle: she's positive energy. Black energy, a black woman leaping oceans and continents at a single bound with positive strength of purpose.

Further, she's black purity. Hear that in her intonation. Without trickery.

She knows the gimmicks, scorns to use 'em.

Rather, she'll face you and relate what's in her heart, faithfully and incorruptibly.
