The Ultimate Accompanist
THE ULTIMATE ACCOMPANIST SINCE THE ’60S MUSICIANS HAVE melded jazz with rock, pop, R&B, and classical music. But few have explored those blends with the tireless vision of pianist, producer, and composer Bob James. After a career of 40-some years, 40-some solo albums, and collaborations with everyone from jazz greats Grover Washington and George Benson to pop greats Paul Simon and Neil Diamond, James remains a restlessly creative force. “I've always had eclectic taste,” says Bob. “I’ve always been interested in combining different—and sometimes really disparate—elements in order to arrive at some - thing nobody else thought of before.” That spirit is particularly evident in the ten albums James created with Fourplay, an all-star quartet consisting of drummer Harvey Mason, bassist Nathan East, and guitarist Larry Carlton, who replaced founding member Lee Ritenour in 1998. “I KNEW IT WASN’T A CONVENTIONAL PIANO, BUT IT FELT SO COMFORTABLE TO ME. I COULD SIT DOWN AND PLAY WITH MY STYLE, THE WAY I NORMALLY PLAY.” 38 39 Discovered by Quincy Jones in 1963, James quickly rose to jazz prominence, most notably via a long stint with vocalist Sarah Vaughan. That gig reinforced James’s tendency to view himself as an accompanist. “I prefer a supportive role to being stuck too far out front,” he says. “I'm more than happy to give up the melodic front line in order to do what I really love: trying to make the lead voice sound better, whether that voice is a singer or a saxophone. That’s one of the reasons I've loved being in Fourplay.

You’re Everything La Fiesta Times Lie personnel FACULTY JAZZ PARLIAMENT Sam Skelton, reeds Lester Walker, trumpet Wes Funderburk, trombone Trey Wright, guitar Tyrone Jackson, piano Marc Miller, bass Justin Chesarek, drums program notes Armando Anthony "Chick" Corea (born June 12, 1941) is an American jazz and fusion pianist, keyboardist and composer. Many of his compositions are considered jazz standards. As a member of Miles Davis' band in the 1960s, he participated in the birth of the electric jazz fusion movement. In the 1970s, he formed Return to Forever. Along with Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner, and Keith Jarrett, he has been described as one of the major jazz piano voices to emerge in the post-John Coltrane era. Corea continued to pursue other collaborations and to explore various musical styles throughout the 1980s and 1990s. He is also known for promoting and fundraising for a number of social issues, such as eradicating social illiteracy. Corea's first major professional gig was with Cab Calloway. Corea started his professional career in the 1960s playing with trumpeter Blue Mitchell and Latin musicians such as Herbie Mann, Willie Bobo and Mongo Santamaría. One of the earliest recordings of his playing is with Mitchell's quintet on The Thing To Do.
