A funkier, sexier trumpeter lay dormant under Hargrove's first incarnation as a hard-bopping, straight-ahead virtuoso. And while a hint could be heard in early R&B workout "Greens at the Chicken Shack," from 1994, Hargrove truly lets his freak flag fly with experimental combo The RH Factor, which delivers spacious neo-soul jazz ("The Joint") and sultry, ambient hip-hop with the help of D'Angelo ("B******t").
