Positivity – Incognito – Audio CD – Pre Owned CDs (Arrives in 14days)

Incognito’s 1993 release ‘Positivity’ stands as a luminous milestone in contemporary jazz, soul, and funk. Helmed by Jean-Paul ‘Bluey’ Maunick, the British collective crafts an album brimming with optimism, sophisticated horn arrangements, and irresistibly smooth grooves. The record’s signature blend of jazz intricacy and danceable rhythms is elevated by the powerhouse vocals of Maysa Leak, whose expressive range turns tracks like ‘Still a Friend of Mine’ into instant genre classics. While rooted in jazz, Incognito’s sound on ‘Positivity’ nods to the collective’s multicultural influences, weaving elements of soul and pop with tight musicianship and effervescent energy. The album radiates warmth and unity—a reflection of the band’s ethos and London’s vibrant club scene of the early ‘90s. For collectors, this LP is more than a sonic joyride; it captures an era when jazz was fearlessly reinvented for a new generation, without losing its heart or sophistication. Whether you’re a seasoned jazz aficionado or a newcomer seeking a gateway into the genre, ‘Positivity’ is a spirited testament to the enduring allure of groove-driven, motivational music.
