Orlando le Fleming & Romantic Funk (OLF Records) is the first album featuring Orlando's electric bass. A former cricketeer in England who moved here in 2003 to pur- sue a new career in jazz, Orlando worked as an acoustic bassist with a wide cross- section of jazzmen, from Branford Marsalis to Bill Charlap. This CD, his first venture on electric bass, channels the vibe of 1970s jazz-rock and funk from Weather Report to Herbie Hancock's Headhunters, with special attention to the groundbreaking work of electric bassist Jaco Pastorius. The tracks here abound, as do the aforementioned bands, with electric keyboards and guitar as well as Orlando's electric bass.

McCoy later said, Bud and Richie Powell moved into my neighborhood. He also befriended saxophonist John Coltrane, then a member of trumpeter Miles Davis' band.
