About "Dat Dere" by Bobby Timmons
Bobby Timmons's 'Dat Dere' is a jaunty, infectious hard-bop tune, full of childlike wonder and adult swing. The piano rolls with a bright, confident stride, but there's a hint of melancholy beneath the cheer—a knowing nod to the fleeting nature of innocence, wrapped in a groove that refuses to sit still.
