MUSICIAN, SONGWRITER, DRUMMER - “Summer" is a Swedish radio show where a person is given free hands to speak about whatever they want and play their own choice of music.

- I am more comfortable speaking in English after my 35 years in the USA, but I can still speak Danish and some Swedish: Systembolaget, Sportspegeln and Kungliga Tennishallen, for example! I am going to talk about life, work, and the music that got me on the right track in life.

Bobby Williams - Anybody Can be a Nobody (Soul US 1976)

Bitrate: 256

Ripped by: ChrisGoesRock

Soul/funk LP from 1976 with the incredible crossover soul tune "You need love like I do". 


The cliché says that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but few muster the sincerity of Bobby Williams -- a James Brown acolyte with a style and energy comparable to the Godfather himself, Williams transcends his faux-funk origins with grooves that are undeniably genuine. His second LP, 1976's Anybody Can Be a Nobody, moves past the low-budget grit of his debut Funky Superfly with a sound evoking the silky-smooth sensibilities of Miami funk. 


Williams is more of a singer than a shouter this time around, and while some listeners may miss the gutbucket grooves of his previous disc, the record's maturation and sophistication are convincing.

One of the all time indie funk classics of the 1970's, obscure vocalist Bobby Williams' gave James Brown a run for the money when he released "Funky Super Fly" in 1974. 

The style of the album recalls James Brown at his funkiest, but with a sound that's even grittier featuring a tight horn section and some heavy funk jamming that really gets in the groove and stays there. 

On his second LP, 1976's "Anybody Can Be a Nobody," Williams moves past the grit of "Funky Super Fly" to reveal a more sophisticated style evocative of Curtis Mayfield mixed with the smooth stylings of Miami funk to produce a more mature sound, showing that he can be more of a singer than a shouter. 

Copies of the original LP fetches big bucks on the rare groove collector's market and fans of the album will be delighted to see it make its long overdue debut in the digital realm. All selections newly remastered.
