Don't know how Ra felt, but Ronnie did leave the band shortly thereafter I think. Gilmore took sideman gigs but always came back to the fold, right?
Daaoud Haroom, trombone
Joe Ferguson, sax/fl
Jimmy Vass, sax
Monty Waters, sax/fl
George Avaloz, conga
Art Lewis, drums
Ronnie Boykins, b/sousaphone
all play percussion instruments as well.
There's a small-group Ra vibe to the proceedings, I guess, and very easy on the ears. I haven't listened to it in a few years, though.
If my cat wasn't named Silva, I woulda named him Daaoud Haroom.
