Description
This Definitive Double CD Collection is the first- time Eric Gale’s CTI, Columbia & Warner Brothers repertoire has compiled together on one package.

Eric Gale has put his stamp on over 500 recordings, working with a who’s who of Pop, Soul & Jazz from Jimi Hendrix to Aretha Franklin.

Eric Gale recorded eleven solo albums, and was the pivotal player in the Jazz Funk super group Stuff, two tracks of which are featured on this package.

This collection includes four tracks from his only CTI Records album “Forecast” which featured Jazz heavyweights Bob James on Piano, Idris Muhammad on Drums & Hubert Laws on Flute.

After the CTI album Eric signed with Columbia and released two of his greatest albums “Ginseng Woman” and “Multiplication”. ‘Sara Smile’, the Hall & Oates classic is given the Gale treatment on the “Ginseng Woman” album and creates his own Reggae influenced Jazz classic.

After leaving Columbia Eric signed with Warner Brothers and released the albums “Blue Horizon” and “Island Breeze” and tracks from those albums are featured on this package.

Also check out Lois Wilson’s sleeve-notes, which gives you a great insight to the guitar legend that is Eric Gale.
