about

Here is the first jazz fusion record I produced for my father entitled "Let's Set the Record Straight". I suggested this title to my father as a statement to the critics that had suggested his contemporary jazz projects were him [Tom Coster] selling out and going soft musically. My father wrote almost all this material and arranged everything displaying his monstrous chops as a jazz fusion pioneer and legend among legends. These projects were some of my finest work as a producer in the jazz fusion world and included incredible line ups. The following players are included on this release: Alfonso Johnson • Bass, Dennis Chambers • Drums, Karl Perazzo • Percussion, Raul Rekow • Percussion, Steve Smith • Drums, Bob Berg (RIP our dear friend) • Sax, Frank Gambale • Guitar and Tom Coster • Keyboards and B3.

Produced by • Tommy Coster
Executive Producer • Takashi Misu

All compositions written by • Tom Coster
Except • "For The Folks Back Home" written by • Tom Coster and Tommy Coster Jr and "The Best Of Friends" written by • Karl Perazzo and Raul Rekow.
