Originally released in 1974, Flying Start is the breakout second album from The Blackbyrds, the jazz-funk group formed by legendary trumpeter Donald Byrd. Packed with slick grooves, tight horn arrangements, and infectious energy, this album features the band’s biggest hit — the timeless funk anthem “Walking in Rhythm.”
Blending smooth soul, jazz sophistication, and streetwise funk, Flying Start showcases The Blackbyrds at their creative peak. Reissued on CD by BGP Records, this edition brings a classic of '70s groove back into rotation for crate-diggers and soul connoisseurs alike.
