Guitarist Steve Kahn

 









From discogs:

(Steve Cahn)

Profile:

Steve Khan (born April 28, 1947) is an American jazz guitarist and author born in Los Angeles, California. The son of lyricist Sammy Cahn, Steve Khan is best-known for his fusion records. He originally played piano and drums. In 1969, Khan moved to New York and worked steadily on jazz, pop, and R&B recordings.

Note the bands he was in:

Atmospheres (they put out two fantastic mid70s fusion albums, led by Clive Stevens, everyone should have), Blood, Sweat And Tears, Elements (to come here), Farberius (one-off album with Mitch Farber, light fusion), Flying Monkey Orchestra, Man Doki Soulmates, People (9), Steps Ahead (posted here), The Mendoza/Mardin Project, The New York All Stars, The Players Association, Weather Update.

First off we have to mention the gorgeous artwork by Belgian artist Jean Michel Folon, and among other albums I've posted here he created the covers for Olivier Bloch-Laine and James Vincent's Culmination.

The Blue Man, which I dedicate to all those including myself who this pandemic has crushed in spirit and are having trouble lifting the weight off, 



This track is representative of the remainder, long guitar patterns over instrumental fusion explorations, a bit less uniquely creative compared to James Vincent but still enjoyable, still sticking to the fusion side of the jazz world.

  5. Hi Stº James, here you´re request :https://www92.zippyshare.com/v/4KYu73PY/file.html
    I share with you the love of reading Fernando Pessoa.
    Every week I read a page (...at least) from” the book of disquiet” (Livro do Desassossego).
    Should be mandatory.
