Posted By: tiburon

Date: Feb. 3, 2018

George Howard began his solo musical career in the late 1970's; prior to going solo Howard had done session work for artists such as Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, First Choice, Blue Magic, and Grover Washington Jr., who invited him to tour with him 1979. The tour helped establish Howard's name and unique sound and in 1982 he released his debut album, Asphalt Garden. The CD is an exacting mix of Contemporary Jazz and funk, with a slow jam thrown in for good measure. Reflections is a must for any George Howard fan.
