Настоящее имя: The Section
Об исполнителе:
US instrumental Rock \ Jazz fusion band formed in the early 1970s. Their close association with the singer-songwriter and soft rock genres of the 1970s also led to their alternate moniker of The Mellow Mafia. After leaving the west coast group The City, Danny Kortchmar had settled into the security of an in-demand L.A. session musician, and along with Lee Sklar (bass), Craig Doerge (keyboards) and Russ Kunkel (drums), they formed a backup band to accompany James Taylor (2) on his first national tour. The band decided to stay together afterwards, calling themselves The Section, putting out three records: “The Section” (1972) and “Forward Motion” (1973) on Warner Bros. Records and finally “Fork It Over” (1977) on Capitol Records.
