1977 w/Larry Carlton & Robbin Ford...some hip funky Jeff

Passing it on...just caught Seth Rauche with Keith Urban on the new Ripcord tour.... WOW...very deep pocket. His favorite drummer? Carlos Vega! He reminded me of Herman Matthews and Abe Jr...can make an 8th note groove feel so full and deep. The Vega influence is obvious...also a fan of Rick Marotta...
