Thanks to whoever had posted this earlier - I ordered it and am listening to it now. The recording quality and musicianship is top notch. I once had the pleasure of playing Indian hand percussion with guitarist Randy Bernsen, who had played for Zawinul on his Lost Tribes album.

Stuff: The Right Stuff 1996

The group Stuff was a team of New York's finest session musicians: Richard Tee,Gordon Edwards,Steve Gadd,Eric Gale,Cornell Dupree and Chris Parker. During the 1970's and 1980's their backing credits read like a who's who of popular music. They can be heard backing all the elite artists of that time period such as Aretha Franklin,Joe Cocker,Paul Simon,George Benson,Grover Washington JR,Ray Charles,Van McCoy and many more. All fans of jazz/rock fusion should own this blistering cd which documents master session artists at their best. Just listening to the tracks like "Foots","Love the stuff",and"Signed sealed and delivered" are enough to make any listener feel like they were just zapped into overdrive! The drum and piano solo's by Steve Gadd and the Late Richard Tee are flawless and unmatched by any one in popular music to this day. The guitar playing of Cornell Dupree and the late great Eric Gale is the jazz equivalent of the rock combination of Duane Allman and Eric Clapton.

Know her best as a recent bass player for Pat Metheny, but her solo stuff is very interesting as well!
