Ray Harris & The Fusion Experience ... CD P-Vine (Japan), 2007. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Ray Harris is a heck of a great keyboardist – one with plenty of influences from the 60s and 70s, and a groove that more than lives up to the title of the set! The style's a bit less conventionally "fusion" than you might expect – and instead, there's almost a club jazz feel ... (New Grooves, Deep Funk) read more CD
