First Roy Hargrove, now Russell Malone. This was a wonderful tribute to Russell by Bobby Broom. I want to remember Wallace Roney, Mulgrew Miller, all of the greats who left us too soon! There is a lifetime's worth of music there to enjoy and learn from for we mere mortals.
That last song, Love Looks Good On You, is such a beautiful song . When the final note is played, Rick almost hits another note but hesitates and lets it go. That moment captures the entire journey of a musician right there.
I remember meeting and seeing Mr. Bobby Broom in the Bronx in the 70’s at the Drum and Bugle Corp, where my Dear Friend and Brother Mr. Blake Washington RIH were both taking lessons from the Great Jazz Guitarist Mr. Jimmy Carter.🎼🎸🎼
Thank you Mr. Broom and KUVO. Russell is one of my heroes and I'm so pleased to see him honored in such a thoughtful and beautiful way. I just know he's smiling about it!
I first met Russell around 2000 at Rudy’s Music Shop. He was a small guy sitting in the back, playing incredibly fast lines. I walked up to him and joked, "Hey man, can you play a little faster?" He cracked a smile, and we started talking. He shared stories about his albums with Sony and his work with Harry Connick Jr., which left me so impressed. Over the years, I was fortunate enough to develop a friendship with him. As others have mentioned, Russell would show up at small gigs and out-of-the-way places, like the DLV Lounge in Montclair and Morris in Jersey City. One of the key lessons I learned from him, and from George Benson as well, is that great musicians draw inspiration from many sources. Benson himself once said he "steals from a lot of guitarists," but Russell had a unique sense of melody that set him apart. His guitar solos were unmatched, on par with legends like Barney Kessel. Russell’s skill with fingerpicking and harmonics was something few guitarists could replicate. He was truly special. God bless you, Russell-we love you. And God bless you too, Bobby Brown.

I wept deeply when I heard the terrible news and now I weep tears of joy listening to Bobby honouring a great master.
It’s great to hear Bobby on these tunes. I love his rhythmic feel and phrasing.
fantastic performance,,, in celebration of a great musician

Every body is catching up Russell ... Honeybone sounds like a 1970's hit wow Russell was so deep
His phrasing reminds me of Grant Green.
Sistematically behind
The beat
But It works
The piano sounds strange. 😞
poor sound that guitar,...it lacks body.
Clean your ears
Dreadful..a Chancer.. He can't lick the fretboard.. Basic player.. It was crap

He has nothing in his playing.. He's a fn chancer
