Knoxville, Tenn. rock-jazz-funk band Gran Torino is an impressive musical collaboration of nine fine musicians. Together, they fuse the sounds of trumpet, guitar, keyboard, sax and other instruments into smooth music with groove.

Behind them, though, bare-chested neighbors with flowing red hair are galloping down the main street on chestnut horses. A girl is kissing a customer in her delight at having completed, successfully, a credit-card transaction (her first). And around a tiny graveyard of white and black and red-brown crosses, crookedly set against the sea, the moai stand, restored to their dark platforms, in front of cresting waves...

CURTIS MAYFIELD's productions were a singer's dream and a musician's delight. The combination of Mayfield and Rich Tufo held a captive and universal audience for their arrangements.
