In 1975, Haslip began touring and recording with many different popular artists. In 1978 he met guitarist Robben Ford and keyboardist Russell Ferrante and formed a group to record Robben's first solo recording on Electra-Asylum. This critically acclaimed album, called " The Inside Story" became a landmark recording. This led to the formation of The Yellowjackets who recorded their debut album for Warners Bros. Records in 1980. Two time Grammy winners, The Yellowjackets, have been nominated for seventeen Grammys! Jimmy was also nominated for an Edison award in 2000, and another Grammy nomination, his 18th, for the Jeff Lorber Fusion “NOW IS THE TIME” recording, which he co-produced.
Chambers - well known for his technique and speed - has recorded and performed with John Scofield, George Duke, Brecker Brothers, Santana, Parliament/Funkadelic, John McLaughlin, Niacin, Mike Stern, CAB, Greg Howe, and many others. Chambers is well-regarded for his ability to play "in the pocket" but can also stretch very far out of the pocket - a hallmark of his technique. Technically proficient, yet highly musical and groove-oriented in a wide variety of musical genres, but most notable for his jazz-fusion, funk, and Latin music playing.
