Bobby Bobylon by Freddie McGregor
Bobby Bobylon was Freddie McGregor's debut album. The sweet sermon on "Wine of Violence" is magnificent, as is the sultry "I Am a Revolutionist." The cover of the Ethiopians' "Gonna Take Over Now" is phenomenal, the vocals as sweet and warm as cocoa, the bouncy backing irresistible, while the emotive "Go Away Pretty Girl" is the standout among the lovers numbers.
