This is the 9th solo release for Clive Stevens and the 3rd on his Planet 8 Records… THE GREATEST HITS OF MR. X is a celebration of the most exciting tracks from Clive’s illustrious recording career. The funkified, future jazz, electro ambient fusioneer has played with Manfred Mann, The Ananda Project, Larry Coryell, Steve Hackett, Billy Cobham and many more, plus his MILLENNIUM JAMS album was up for an Echo Award in Germany. This eclectic project features Mr. X (Stevens) on lead vocals, saxophones and wind synthesizer playing with world class musicians. Clive has been noted for bringing together some of the most under-exposed yet incredibly talented world music and jazz artists. Perhaps headier than Lounge, Mr. X has created a masterpiece collection of multi-genre that traverses from world jazz to global funk. Dedicated to late jazz legend and innovator, Miles Davis on Planet 8 Records, which is committed to a new generation of progressive International artists for the 21st Century.
