详细介绍

With a smooth sound bringing together elements of funk, R&B, rock, and electric jazz, keyboardist Jeff Lorber helped pioneer a genre of fusion later formatted under such names as NAC and contemporary jazz. Born in Philadelphia on November 4, 1952, he began playing the piano at the age of four, and as a teen performed with a variety of local R&B bands. Lorbers infatuation with jazz began during his stay at the Berklee College of Music, and after forming the Jeff Lorber Fusion he issued the groups self-titled debut in 1979. During the first half of the following decade, the band became one of the most popular jazz acts of the period, touring non-stop and even scoring a Best R&B Instrumental Grammy nomination for their radio hit Pacific Coast Highway. 1984s Step by Step was their most successful outing yet, but at the Fusions peak, Lorber disbanded the group, instead turning to production and session work. He did not issue his first proper solo LP until 1991s Worth Waiting For, remaining both a prolific performer and producer for the rest of the decade. He recorded for Verve and Zebra in the 90s before moving over to Narada in the 2000s and releasing successful smooth jazz albums like 2003s Philly Style and 2005s Flipside. He released He Had a Hat on Blue Note in 2007.
