In the history of music, Jeff Porcaro is one of the names that keeps returning.

Jeff Porcaro was born at Hartford in 1954. His recorded nationality is United States of America. He trained at Grant High School.

Performance is the most perishable art and recording the most durable; a career sits between the two.
That the work came out of United States of America shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.
