I´ve heard this guys remarkeble drumplay in the fusionband Uncle Moe´s Space Ranch, now Dennis Chambers has a soloalbum out. Is there anyone who heard this album, then please tell us about it. Heres a little info of the album called Outbreak. (By the way, wasnt he a fan of Happy the Man?)
A formidable, ferocious and ultrafunky presence behind the kit in such celebrated ensembles as Parliament-Funkadelic, Steely Dan, Santana and the Brecker Brothers as well as incendiary fusion outfits led by guitarists John Scofield, Mike Stern and John McLaughlin, Dennis Chambers is everyone’s choice for allworld drummer. On "Outbreak” , his Stateside debut as a leader, Dennis slams home some solid grooves in the company of such heavyweights as guitarists Scofield, Jon Herington, Nick Moroch and Dean Brown, bassists Will Lee, Gary Willis, Matthew Garrison and his old P-Funk rhythm tandem mate Rodney ‘Skeet’ Curtis, saxophonists Michael Brecker, Bobby Malach and Aaron Heick, trumpeter Randy Brecker and longtime colleague and keyboardist Jim Beard, who produced the New York session.
Great list of musicians here. I do recognize Jim Beard as a member in Mahavishnu Orchestra in the 1980s. I really have great respect for Michael Brecker, hes such a talented saxplayer. Hes my favourite saxplayer along with Frank Wyatt. They both can really make the sax sound beautiful and soulful. Cheers!
