After the release of their self-titled debut Jazz Funk Soul album, the outgoing trio of Jeff Lorber, Chuck Loeb and Everette Harp booked more studio time, with the goal of capturing their dynamic onstage energy and flow on a follow-up release. The name od this one of a kind album is “More serious business”, and we can assure you that the qvality is eqval to the name. “More serious business” has 10 songs full with soaring saxophone solos, brilliant guitar riffs, super funky piano riffs and incredibly compelling melodies. The album was released on January 22, 2016 by Shanachie entertainment.
Unite Harp’s soaring sax, Loeb’s superb resourceful guitar further Lorber’s excellent funky piano, moreover the sum is serious pleasant music. The track “More serious business” it’s built up from a toe-tapping, tightly-constructed jazz-funk groove and the chops that are used not as an ends onto itself but to instead light up the sunny harmony.
