ABOUT THE ALBUM
Versatile Jazz, operation out of New York City in 1977-78, was an ambitious little label modeled after Creed Taylors highly successful CTI label that revolutionized the jazz industry by producing records that tried to reach a wider audience via modern production techniques and an attempt to make jazz more accessible to the masses. Versatile follow the recipe laid down by CTI, using lots of orchestration, modern pop tunes done in jazz style, but they added a huge dash of 70's funk to the mix. Features on this collection are such greats as Cornell Dupree, Hand Crawford, Grant Green and many more, a must for any jazz enthusiast.
