About this album
Tom Scott And The L.A. Express is a sharp, groove-driven jazz-funk album that helped define mid-1970s fusion with a cleaner, more urban edge. Issued in 1974, it brought together saxophonist Tom Scott and the L.A. Express, a standout group of session players whose tight interplay gives the record its precision and momentum. Built around elastic rhythms, electric textures and fluent horn writing, the album moves jazz language towards accessible instrumental funk without losing sophistication. It is especially valued for its role in the West Coast fusion scene and for helping establish Scott as one of the era’s most versatile and influential bandleaders.
