Ian Carr began his career in the group The EmCee Five together with his younger brother Mike Carr (2) in the early 1960's. He was perhaps best known for his group Nucleus (3), a jazz-fusion group which was successful throughout the 1970s and lasted until 1988. His recordings as co-leader of The Don Rendell / Ian Carr Quintet during the 1960s have been much sought after by jazz record collectors.
