Bob James Caribbean Nights
Bob James Caribbean Nights
Tappan Zee Records was formed in July 1977 by pianist and arranger Bob James. Named for the bridge and the river James often crossed on his way home from New York City recording sessions, the specialty label was distributed by industry giant, Columbia Records. There, James had found great popular success as director of progressive A&R (1975-77), overseeing substantial hits for Paul Simon, Neil Diamond, Maynard Ferguson and Kenny Loggins. Tappan Zee afforded James the opportunity to be in the studios more often, recording more of his own music and choosing those with whom he wanted to record. Indeed, James recorded prolifically during this time. Tappan Zee issued all of Bob James's solo recordings between 1977 and 1984 (and one of his two collaborations during this period with guitarist Earl Klugh) as well as a handful of records by other artists between 1977 and 1980. In that time, Tappan Zee Records - guided nearly single-handedly by the musical vision of Bob James - set the standard for what fusion jazz sounded like in the late 1970s. James brought to Tappan Zee Records many of the lessons he learned while a session player and arranger for Creed Taylor's CTI Records (1971-76): distinctive leaders, large all-star orchestras, a good mix of dramatic, exploratory tunes and popular covers, first-call rhythm players (Eric Gale, Ron Carter, Steve Gadd, Idris Muhammad, Ralph MacDonald), exceptional production (in collaboration with engineer Joe Jorgensen) and iconic gatefold <b>...</b>
