REVIEW:
By Yours Truly
This is the 1st album of 3 put out by this group of musicians who were the consummate studio musicians for darn near everybody’s album in the 70’s. No kiddin’….it’s hard to pick up an album made during the 70’s by a singer/songwriter and not find at least one of these guys on it. Carol King, James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, J. D. Souther to name just a few all used these guys talents at some point to help produce their albums. Somewhere along the line they decided to get together as a self –contained unit, in their spare time no doubt…..and put out some great music of their own. Some folks call this music jazz, some call it fusion, some just forget the labels and dig the grooves these boys were (and still are) capable of laying down. There are no vocals, just lots of nice melodies and counterpoint. Music to sooth the savage beast after a bad day at work or late night music for background during quality time with your significant other. This release also contains the talents of one Michael Brecker on Sax and flute who does a nice job of adding another dimension to the already multi-dimensional Section.

Hi there,

Thanx a lot! I used to have the album 'fork it ovr' on vinyl way back then. Been searching for this a long time. Do you have this one?

Hi Stylen,
I don't currently have a copy of "Fork It Over" but I have a couple possibilities that I'm working on right now. If I can get it for a reasonable price I'll be bringing it home and posting it here so keep an eye out.
