Album Notes & Community Reviews

Session guitarist Eric Gale merges his bluesy, gospel-inflected phrasing with smooth jazz fusion on 'Multiplication'. The production utilizes tight rhythm sections and prominent horn charts to frame Gale's fluid improvisations and melodic sensibilities. It is a quintessential artifact of the late-1970s crossover jazz movement.
