About this album

Foxie is a polished showcase of Bob James’s elegant contemporary jazz and jazz-funk style. Issued in 1983, the album reflects the period when his smooth, keyboard-led fusion was helping define a more accessible strain of jazz without losing instrumental sophistication. James’s signature blend of crisp rhythm, catchy melodic lines and immaculate studio detail gives the record its forward motion, while pieces such as Ludwig, Calaban and Fireball underline his gift for memorable, cosmopolitan themes. As part of his early-1980s run, Foxie sits comfortably within the sound that made James a key figure in modern jazz fusion and crossover instrumental music.
