The Fourth Way was a jazz ensemble composed of Eddie Marshall, Mike Nock, Michael White, and Ron McClure[1]. They formed in 1967 and worked primarily in the San Francisco Bay Area through the early 1970s, releasing three albums. Like their contemporaries Weather Report, they were early pioneers of electric jazz, with Nock's Fender Rhodes piano run through many effects pedals including ring modulation[2], Michael White's electrically-amplified violin[3], and Ron McClure's electric bass.
