This was my first time in the recording studio and my first record date. Saxophonist Billy Harper was in my first band in NYC that I put together for my sister Mary Mouzon Highsmith's wedding (RIP). Pianist Lonnie Liston Smith was also in my band. We also plays a gig a Sandy Jazz Club in NYC. It was because of Billy Harper ( who was with the Gil Evens Orchestra) that I was invited to play on this classic album. My drum idol and friend Elvin Jones is also on this album. I'm playing drums on this first track in this video called "THOROUGHBRED". I also play on "BLUES IN ORBIT". www.tenaciousrecords.com

“Priestess” by Gil Evans” would also be on my top 250. NOJO with an exclamation mark would be right alongside. GBG NO EDITS. And, thanks to you tube for their everlasting and beautiful sponsorship and am happy to say that I belong to their NO ADDS CLUB. It is monumentally worth the membership.
