This takes me back to my teen years in Baltimore, better times for sure, The newness of this sound, The straight ahead direction which reflected where we were headed in our community and our society as a whole. I'm proud to have lived to be a part of the movement. Gregg

CHI-TOWN..... We Love You Bobbi. My son recently asked me about you. He loves your music, How are you? This is my JAM!! I played my flute along with you back then. Inspiring. ALL was Heaven on Earth! Thanks for the Blessed Memories / post

[phillydisco]

Because of a misprint on her greatest hits CD from Capitol/Blue Note, I thought this track was called 'Chicago Dawn'. Then when I saw the 45 I though the 'Damn' was a misprint! LOL! Eventually I figured it out that the Damn was the name and Dawn was the misprint.

[jabbojones814]

long distance trucker here... used to go to chitown a lot... would always say.. "chicago? damn!"  lol great song!!

[diopsdad]

home-girl bobbi much love

where the music at//!

[chesapeake01]

thank you bobbi at her best, man they don't make music like this anymore, this cut was the 70"s back in the day.

[RagidyEntertainment]

YOU JUST DON'T KNOW HAPPY I AM TO HEAR THIS SONG!!! Right now I am smiling like crazy. Back in the day my dad would listen to Bobbi Humphrey, and that's how i got hooked. The album got away from the house years ago, and now I feel like a part of me has been given back. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!!

[strangersound]

I was four and I hoped I was in earshot! I love the soul/funk/jazz from the late 60s, early 70's.

It's my opinion 1977 was the pinnacle of human civilization. ;)

[zedek49]

Love you Bobbi, you are a true genius.

[Alif8551]

Man I will never forget the feeling of my first night home from the war. I heard this and truly felt the Peace music give. Especially that flute. She is all that and a soul full of sound. YEAH!

[swt32567]

Right on my brother.OOH-AH!!!

Sincerely Your Brother-In-Arms

When I first heard this song in the fall of 1973 I was hooked on Bobbi Humphrey. I bought every album she released from 1973 - 1978. She truely is the "First Lady" of the flute. The combination of the Fonce & Larry Mizell's writing & arranging & Bobbi's flute were magic. This song & whole album will always remind me of my early times in the Army as a fresh young baby soldier & my time in the 'Nam. Thanx for posting.
