      You are correct! Russ takes a backseat to no one. David is the original and Russ occupied the throne extremely well. He's had a nice career too.

    Did some sessions playing bass with the TOP brass section at Bell Studios in New York. They sight-read their parts and we didn't do more than two takes for every song. Great players.

    I hear you all....but Tom Bowes had his moments....I saw them live for the first time live in this version at 18 years of age....Holy Shit! The Hampton Casino Ballroom in New Hampshire......I agree that they are better now than they have ever been...but this version at my age turned me on to them and Lenny Pickett will never be replaced! Tom is great and Richard Elliot both close second!!!!

      afterpodcast 1991 was a good year for TOP. They had no record deal since the late 1970s, when they were dropped by Columbia Records, and they had recently been signed by Epic Records. I would say demos with Tom, had something to do with that.

    Yes, there were times when I just couldn't take Tom's vocals, when he sounded like two cats gettin' busy on a tin roof. However, other times I dug his voice, like his live takes on "Can't You See." As far as Tom P is concerned, I've seen him at jam sessions in Vegas with Lon Bronson's band and every time he completely blows me away. But with TOP, it seems as if he's trying to mimic Lenny Pickett's style all the time. I wish he would just be Tom Polizer 'cause he's a great jazz player.

    • @jeffbabko834
      @jeffbabko834 4 года назад +2

      Russ was freaking great and this was a different era. Everyone’s got a different voice on their instrument. This was the mid 80’s-early 90’s edition of the band and the production/arrangement/songs had a slant appropriate for that period. If we all tried to sound like somebody else we’d be crappy facsimiles.
