Lyle,Bobby Genie CD

Digitally remastered edition of this 1977 album from the Jazz Fusion keyboardist. Lyle was the pianist with Young Holt Unlimited and played with Jimi Hendricks, booked to go on the road with him just ahead of the untimely death. In 1974 he moved to Los Angeles and went on the road with Sly & the Family Stone, and then through dates with Ronnie Laws he met ex-Crusader Wayne Henderson who took him to Capitol Records where this, the first of three iconic albums was released in 1977. Bobby also became Wayne's keyboard player of choice on his solo albums and productions through the remainder of the '70s and early '80s. This album is ultimate jazz funk from a period that gave US artists like Lonnie Liston Smith, Joe Sample and Bob James.
