    Excellent indeed. I like his last one, Organic Instrumentals quite a lot.

    That album was very much a west coast fusion affair, similar in style to Larry Carlton's first album and Lee Ritenours Captain Fingers .

    His singing never really did it for me ,so his long blues phase I'm not that familiar with.
    coincidentally enough, on this NY's eve, I saw a Larry Carlton concert broadcast with Robben Ford on bass... Very much between blues and jazz..
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    Toronto mayor Rob Ford. You must live in the one place on the globe that doesn't know about him, I guess.

    I love Robben Ford. One of my favorites. For those who are fans, his playing on Neil Larson's Orbit album is fabulous. So tasteful, so appropriate for the music, fabulous tone. This album hasn't been mentioned here yet and it's definitely worth seeking out.

    I can't believe no one has mentioned his incredible album Schizophonic, one of my favorite jazz guitar albums ever.

    I love his stuff. We consider him a local talent here. Even though he comes from Ukiah.

    Not a legit Robben Ford release. In fact, some of the tracks were originally produced for porn films.
