Earl Harvin Trio...that's right a little jazz fer ya


Okay, so when I was in college (best year of my life...kidding...about the best part business, not about the only being there for a year...that part is true) I was a dj at our radio station. I went to The University of North Texas and for those of you that don't know (all of you) it's a very famous jazz school. Long story short, it was a jazz radio station. No cool kid rock and roll, just shitty contemporary jazz and big bands. It was okay, I'm not complaining, but every once in a while there would be a legitimately great moment that made it worth it. This song is definitely the highlight of that time period. Earl Harvin is a drummer and he was fairly highly regarded in the live music scene around town for being innovative and fun to watch. The real treat in this song is the banjo, proving once again that the instrument is a gift from God and completely undeserving of cruel Deliverance references.
