Jazz Fusion Legend Bob Holz To Release Album With Larry Coryell

NEW YORK - EntSun -- MVD Audio Recording Artist Bob Holz will release a commemorative 10th anniversary tribute album titled Honoring Larry Coryell on November 7th, 2025.

The album is comprised of recordings from 2015 when Coryell guested with Holz's band in the studio and on stage.  The music has been mixed and mastered by Los Angeles based sound engineer, Dennis Moody. The tracks are a combination of Holz/Steinway originals and cover tunes. A stand out is a rendition of the blues standard, Spoonful by Willie Dixon. On this tune both Coryell and Holz demonstrate why they both have an important place in the history of jazz fusion. Coryell played on one of the earliest jazz fusion albums, Duster by Gary Burton.  Larry went on to have an illustrious career, recording over forty solo albums. It was Larry Coryell and the Eleventh House that caught Holz's ear in 1973. While at Berklee College of Music  Holz befriended one of Larry's students.  Many years later Bob leveraged that relationship to make contact with Coryell.  Thus began a three year collaboration between Holz and Coryell. Larry appeared on Bob's albums A Vision Forward and Visions and Friends.  He also played many gigs with Holz as the Larry Coryell Trio and Bob Holz and A Vision Forward featuring Larry Coryell.
