Lester Harris

Tenor saxophonist, Lester brings a refined and exciting funk to the kitchen. (Moe hears shades of Maceo.) He was a member of the very funky Bay Area bands, Mo'fessionals and Dizzybam. His album credits include tracks with En Vogue (Funky Divas), Fungo Mungo, Smashmouth, and Sister Double Happiness.

On Grooveprint, check out Lester here:

• Nature Wins Again - tight ostenato, heartfelt solo that really uses the chords well
• What Goes Around Gets Around - great distorted blasts of energy
• Livin' For The Party - great horn lines, marathon solo chock-full-o-licks
• But I Want You - suitably tweaky solo with a mournful wailing finish
• When You Touch Me - yet another heart-full, jazz-informed solo
• Feel Like A Beginner - such a monster as the leader of the trio, to hot to describe here
