Tom Harrell... "Light On"

[Marcus Johnson]

Hoo boy. Just heard the track "Bad Stuff" on my Sirius. Ugonna Okegwo on bass, Johnathon Blake drums. Smokin'. I think I might buy that one.

I'm trying to think of something that Tom Harrell's done that hasn't just knocked me out. No luck so far.

Yeah, he's got something special, don't he?

I was listening to an album he did with George Robert the other day. Not entirely typical for him, but very nice. I agree with you, pretty much not a clinker in his catalogue.

I play with a trumpet player who's kind of a TH nut, so I play a lot of his stuff.

Dig it.

There's a thread over in the slabs forum about musicians you admire. I posted about Tom, since he deals with **** that's unimaginable to most of us, yet plays some of the most amazing music on the planet. Maybe somebody over there will get it, I dunno. There's a link to a short clip from an interview he did on CBS.

been mentioned before on these forums, but Jim Hall's 'These Rooms' w/ Tom harrell is an incredible album.
