Love this guy. We went to high school together. From 1972-1976, I was his bass player at East Highschool in Rochester NY. We parted paths. I, into the U.S. Army, he,.. into stardom. Very fond memories on 1009 Park Ave.
Miss ya Mr. Joe "Persnikidee" Locke.

I love the Vibes. I was fortunate enough to visit Lionel Hampton in his home in New York. What a treat that was. You have a similar sound.

Self taught??!!I would have sworn he learned in a conservatory of some kind like Berkley.His playing is on such another level.
