Eddie Jobson

As recently as 2006, the Editor-in-Chief of Emmy magazine wrote: "The word 'genius' is bandied about a bit too freely these days, but in Jobson's case, the term not only applies, it's been used to describe him since his northern England childhood, when he was such a violin and piano prodigy that he wrote his first string quartet at 13 [and] performed with his first professional symphony at 14..." His performances and compositions have received press accolades, having been described as "brilliant" [All Music Guide], "intriguingly original" [Los Angeles Times], even, "magnificent" [London Times], and "dazzling" [The Boston Globe].

Jobson started guitar and classical piano at age 7, and violin at age 8
