Jeff Lorber's State Of Grace is another great CD with fusion jazz. Elegant, robust, funky and sensitive songs alternate. Lorber is assisted by numerous musicians, including: flutist Gary Meek on PCH (Pacific Coast Highway), soprano saxophonist Dave Koz, bassist Nathaniel Philips (electric bass) and guitarist Michael Landau on the beautiful title track State Of Grace, alto saxophonist Art Porter on
… Cat Paws and Deep Ellum. A special song is The Island Of Temples, on which Jeff Lorber and Dirk Richter can be heard on marimba. This song was created in collaboration with Asian songwriters and is strongly influenced by the gamelan music of Bali. Well worth it!more
