About Stanley Clarke

Philadelphia, PA, United States

Genre
Jazz
Philadelphia-born bassist Stanley Clarke has been a pioneer of both the electric and upright acoustic bass due to his virtuosic technique. He got his start playing with straight-up jazzmen such as Horace Silver and Joe Henderson, but became known as one of the prime movers in the jazz-rock fusion movement of the 1970s as a member of fusion supergroup Return to Forever. Clarke skillfully blended rock, jazz, and funk on solo recordings and in collaborations with keyboardist George Duke, Billy Cobham, and others. Clarke's distinctive slapping technique has influenced numerous technically stunning players, from Victor Wooten to Marcus Miller. ~ Rovi Staff
Stanley Clarke has also released music as a member of World-Wide-Funkdrive, Stanley Cowell Trio, The New Barbarians, The Stanley Clarke Band, Animal Logic, Stanley Clarke Trio, Corea, Clarke & White, Fuse One, Stan Getz Quartet, and Return to Forever.
