Sparks Ii, Bobby
Paranoia
Keyboardist-composer-arranger-conceptualist Bobby Sparks continues his staggering output with Paranoia, a companion
piece to 2019s Schizophrenia - The Yang Projecton Leopard Records. An all-star outing featuring contributions from
guitarists Mike Stern, John Scofield, Dean Brown, Andy Timmons and Eric Gales, saxophonists Chris Potter and Keith
Anderson, bassists PinoPalladino, HadrienFeraud, Chuck Smith, Mononeon, Jay Mck and Reggie Washington, drummers Lil John
Roberts, Dennis Chambers, Brannen Temple, Mike "Blaque Dynamite" Mitchell and Mark Simmons, and singers Lizz Wright,
Dnessa Perry, Jojo Hill, Chuckii Booker and James Robinson, Paranoia is dedicated to the keyboardists father, the late
Bobby Sparks, Sr., a lifelong bebop and blues fan. Also on board for this exhilarating ride are Sparks Snarky Puppy
bandmates- bassist-founder Michael League, guitarist Mark Lettieri and drummer Jason JT Thomas. The influences of
keyboardists Bernard Wright, BernieWorrell, George Duke and Stevie Wonder as well as funk overlord George Clinton and
Sparks own background in church music come to bear on his ambitious secondrelease as a leader for Leopard.
