Biography

Known as the godfather of fusion, Texan guitarist Larry Coryell released groundbreaking, genre-melding solo albums and was the driving force behind the funky, progressive rock pioneers The Eleventh House in the 1970s, before teaming up with his two sons as The Coryells later in his career. Initially Larry learned his trade as a sideman for jazz greats Herbie Mann, Charles Mingus and Gary Burton and was one of the first artists to combine a love of bebop, The Beatles and classical music into an eclectic new sound. Often mentioned as part of an experimental New York scene alongside the likes of Weather Report and Mahavishnu Orchestra, Coryell's flawless technique, wildly inventive improvisations and punchy, energetic attitude were best displayed on the psychedelic, jazz-rock classic 'Spaces' in 1970 and the landmark debut record by The Eleventh House in 1974; but in his later career he developed a more acoustic, fluidly melodic style. With his sons Murali and Julian fast establishing themselves as noted guitarists, Coryell's wife Tracey suggested the trio record together for the first time in 2000, while Larry's old cohorts bass player Brian Toriff and percussionist Alphonse Mouzon also joined the party. The bonding experience turned into the album 'The Coryells' for the Chesky Records label, including covers of Lester Young's 'Goodbye Porkpie Hat', Al Green's 'Love and Happiness' and Muddy Waters' 'Trouble No More', while engaging in a number of smooth, playful bluesy jams. Larry, Murali and Julian all contributed original songs, shared vocals and swapped improvised licks, and the relaxed, warm interactions captured the ageing master at his most content and satisfied. Larry went on to work on operas of Leo Tolstoy's novels 'War and Peace' and 'Anna Karenina' before his death in 2017 aged 73, from heart failure.
