Splash is a studio album by jazz musician Freddie Hubbard released in 1981 on the Fantasy label which features performances by Hubbard with several R&B/soul session musicians. The Allmusic biography by Scott Yanow identifies the album as one of Hubbard's "low points" ^[2] but still features some fine playing albeit not for pure jazz listeners.
