The music of West Virginia pianist Bob Thompson, active as a leader or sideman since the 1970s, ranges from electric and acoustic in a mostly dance-funk style to excellent modal jazz à la <a href="spotify:artist:2EsmKkHsXK0WMNGOtIhbxr">McCoy Tyner</a>. In the late '80s Thompson also became house pianist for the Mountain Stage radio program, produced by West Virginia Public Broadcasting and widely distributed by National Public Radio. He recorded a number of albums for the Atlanta-based <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Ichiban%22">Ichiban</a> label during the 1990s and into the 2000s while also establishing his own <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Colortones.com%22">Colortones.com</a> label for such releases as the 1998 holiday outing Joy to the World and <a href="spotify:artist:49uTl08hRcAe2vFMlGQGLF">the Bob Thompson Unit</a>'s Caught in the Act (1999), Homeland (2002), and Hit from the Git (2006). More Joy to the World and Bob Thompson "Live" on Mountain Stage followed on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Colortones%22">Colortones</a> in 2007. ~ Michael G. Nastos, Rovi
