Jeff Lorber Fusion - Bright Sky

[majorgivens]

Masterful composition, makes you ask whatever happened to the real Jazzist who were able to fuse fuck with contempoary and make it work.  I love these older Jeff Lorger cuts!

[differentgroove1]

As we know Jeff Lorber Did his first fusion album in years. I wish he did it with this group of musician. This in one of the tightest bands ever . I hope to see the original members play together again. That would be awsome, great post.

Where is this cut on all the Fusion "Collections"? Kinda makes you wonder who the hell produces those CDs when they don't include tunes like this.

[Thunderbird093]

Does someone know, where I can download it in high quality?

[Urology707]

Yeah, this album truly highlights Kenny G's sax and flute proficiency... Most folks don't even know how much of a beast that dude really is... Excellent post amigo...

[Thunderbird093]

2:28 love this moment; when the sax stays for a moment up and then goes down :D Jeeez

This music is like a vitamin for my body and soul.

[MRFUNKYBASSLINE]

Lets see do I remember them clearly, out of Oregon, the group members, Jeff Lorber, Danny Wilson, Dennis Bradford, Kenneth Gorlick (later became Kenny G), I was so attached to this group that I thought I was a member.

Those were the good days.

[jazzpsalti]

I just saw danny wilson do his first gig since!!! he's amazing

[MRFUNKYBASSLINE]

Really, now that's great.

I know you enjoyed his talent, tell him next time that he's still got millions of fans that remembers every note that he played.

[RAMBR0]

@jazzpsalti Danny' s still playing? With who? Where? You can';t just drop a nugget like that without back up info (even if the post was a year ago...lol)

[jazzpsalti]

@RAMBR0 Danny Wilson started playing again about a couple years ago. He was living in hometown Portland, OR, but now I believe he's moved to Pukalani, HI.

[RAMBR0]

@jazzpsalti Thanks for the prompt reply - good to hear he's still with the music; great to hear in fact!

[pitchyellow]

[Tech470]

I saw them L.A. and Orange county back in the early 80's. They were "HOT", especially on this chart. I also love the group's previous release to this one, Wizard Island.

[JazzySaxE]

gotta come back to listen to this!

aaww man this track is hot

[Leetav]

Guys if you like this sort of Jazz/Funk stuff, plz check out my bands material. I cant paste links but if you type 'Shock Contender' into google and check out the sites I really hope you all enjoy them. I love this track by the way, awesome stuff

[Tech470]

Check out the old Kenny G on sax!

[1smoothj]

The solos in this song are absolutely awesome especially the way Jeff ends his synth solo. I always wondered was that a prophet he is playing. Does anyone no for sure?

[rockjohnson80]

Yeah...My mother played this album or tape all the time when I was a kid. I always thought he was using a moog in his songs.

[oholm09]

@1smoothj yeah it was prophet 5 polyphonic seq circuit synth

[JazzySaxE]

Aww man this song hits the spot!

I needed this one!

I love the melody and its so funky, it fills the soul.

[mikey2429]
