SPIRIT TRAVLER at BB KINGS, UNIVERSAL CITY FRI AUG 23, 2002 9PM A Guitar group concept originally put together by Phil Upchurch to be known as the "Guitar Summit". The guitarist`s I wanted for this Summit I felt should also be the ones who represented R&B thru at least, the last 3 decades which would include the 60`s and 70`s. These years represented the time of the transition of the music from urban blues to. R&B. The music was a hybrid of gospel and blues. Some of the most important recordings in history were made during these decades and I wanted to include in the summit, some of the guitar players that were a prominent part of this development. PIONEERS: The players I felt that had the most individual styles of this era were Wah-Wah Watson, David T Walker, Eric Gale, and Al McKay. We also had James Jamerson Jr. on bass and James Gadson on drums. We recorded for JVC Records under the name of SPIRIT TRAVELER. Diane Louie added her invaluable assistance on keyboards and lent us a lot of her technical expertise. The CD is a tribute to the music of classic Motown, music which the bulk of Spirit Traveler performed on originally. Collectively this group has been "instrumental". in selling over 500 Million records worldwide by the groups collaborations with all the top recording company`s and Producer's of the 60's and 70's to include Motown, Chess, Stax, Philly International, Atlantic, Curtom, just to scratch the surface. Phil Upchurch, Guitar Founding member of Spirit Traveler, has been making records since 1958 with the likes of Quincy Jones, Curtis Mayfield, John Lee Hooker-(original Boom-Boom-Boom), Jimmy Smith, & Chaka Kahn Just to name a few. Has performed on over 1000 recordings to include movie soundtracks and commercials. He has released 23 solo recordings Ray Parker Jr,Guitar/Vocals Most widely known for scoring the movie "Ghost Busters". and his group "Raydio". with their big hit "Jack and Jill". was also a multi million seller. Ray has also appeared on countless recordings as a session musician. David T Walker, Guitar A seasoned studio pro possessing the versatility to work with a wide variety of artists to include Anita Baker, Johnny Cash, Ella Fitzgerald, Sergeo Mendes, Frank Sinatra, Steeley Dan and Boz Scaggs just to name a very few. Most recently Serving as MD for Lou Rawls On Tour. He has released 18 solo recordings. James Gadson, Drums/Vocals Wrote and sang lead on "Loveland". with the Watts 103 Street Band. Performed on Marvin Gaye's "Whats Going On"., Bill Withers "Use Me"., "Lean On Me". and hundreds of other landmark recordings James Jamerson Jr. bass Son of the legendary Motown staff bassist took up where pop left off. Recording and performing with Marvin Gaye, Janet Jackson, Cher, Pavarotti, Bob Dylan and major movie soundtracks. He also wrote the award winnig "œStanding In The Shadows Of Motown".. Al McKay, Guitar Founding member with Maurice White of Earth Wind & Fire had his beginnings with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr, Charles Wrights Watts 103 St Band and The Ike & Tina Turner Review. The 5 time grammy winner composed EWF's "September Song"., "Sing A Song". and for The Emotions "The Best Of My Love". As a producer-The Temptations, and many sessions in LA for various artist's. David T Walker, Guitar A seasoned studio pro possessing the virsatility to work with a wide variety of artist's to include Anita Baker, Johnny Cash, Ella Fitzgerald, Sergeo Mendes, Frank Sinatra, Steeley Dan and Boz Scaggs just to name a very few. Most recently Serving as MD for Lou Rawls On Tour. He has released 18 solo recordings. Wah Wah Watson, Guitar Most recently on tour with Maxwell and MeShell Ndegeocello his colorful past associates have been Herbie Hancock, Michael Jackson (Off The Wall), Quincy Jones, Marvin Gaye and some of Motowns Landmark records with The Tempts "Papa Was A Rolling Stone". and "Let's Get It On". and the list is endless. As the groups name implies, a phenomenon like the formation of SPIRIT TRAVELER is fleeting. It is these astounding talents comming together to create an hour and 15 minutes of music that has an appeal that is as everlasting as these classics and is as exciting as only a collaberation between such stellar artist could ever be. | ||
