Fusion keyboardist Rodney Franklin was born in Berkeley, CA, in 1958. He began piano lessons at the age of six. After graduation, he worked with <a href="spotify:artist:3Hl3dCaBcrnvBAOMAW4nJR">John Handy</a> in San Francisco and toured with <a href="spotify:artist:0fTHKjepK5HWOrb2rkS5Em">Freddie Hubbard</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0hirZ8kPPdM9pzXpoagB4w">Marlena Shaw</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4jfExfOYzFuC4YkwHFSgiG">Bill Summers</a>. His debut album In the Center appeared in 1978 on Columbia. Two years later, Franklin hit the Top Ten with "The Groove," from You'll Never Know. The next six years brought seven more albums from Columbia; none were as successful as You'll Never Know, but Franklin continued to build his reputation as a respected fusion artist. He moved to BMG for 1988's Diamond Inside of You and has also released Love Dancin for Nova. ~ John Bush, Rovi
