Groovin'

1988, looking back, it was a very good year.....for contemporary jazz. Of all the years that I remember, 1988, at least for MCA Records, was a stellar year for releases; it seemed as though each week brought 4 or 5 new releases, now, we're lucky if we get that many in a month, and certainly not from a 'major' record company. One of the best and most interesting releases I picked up that year was Missing Links-Groovin', which might have as well been a Special EFX side project; with George Jinda, Omar Hakim, Robbie Kondor, Bernard Wright, Don Blackman, Najee, Bill Evans, Lenny Pickett, John Scofield and a number of other fine musicians contributing to this CD of Soul and R&B covers. I was in a major transition that year, bought a lot of music which defined and set the path for The Soundtrack Of My Life, but of all the years, 1988 was one of the most significant for me.......in many ways. To be continued..........

Listen to 'Walk On By', 'Everyday People/Thank You.....', 'Don't Hold Back' and 'Dancing In The Street'
