AFFIRMATION – Lost Angeles (1980)

Affirmation (Inner City Records, 1980) played soul-stirring jazz-rock
fusion, moving from a funky tune into a dazzling show of spacey jazz. Much
of the flexibility and fullness of their sound was due to the talents of
the leader of the group, Thom Teresi, who played five keyboards with each
being a moodsetter. He moved from the mellow, flowing sounds of Fender
Rhodes to the funky staccato of his Clavinet with ease. It’s not strange,
then, to hear the influence of Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock in his
playing. He also provides the group with it’s space bound electric sound
with his synthesizer. This was a very talented band that still deserves a
listen.
