aww its jeb patton! he was at jazz camp with me and tootie!
they always had little jokes, like jeb would be trying to teach about kind of blue and have a bunch of slides, and tootie would make a little comment like "oh there's fatass johnny! [coltrane, of course...]" or "thats cannonball when he woke up in the morning and stuck his finger in an electrical socket. oh wait... its butterball, right, jeb?" and jeb would try not to crack up...
i love tootie. hes really funny and charming and great!
@cecisota12 I heard him yesterday and he was hilarious! We had eyecontact through the concert and afterwords he walked up to me and we talked. I told him "You are amazing!" and he said "No, you are!" A really great and funny man!
There are 1000's of Heath Bros. stories. I think what is so interesting is that you can read the the comments on various Heath Brother's videos and see things like one son being someone's bus driver, or one of the Brothers is their Grandma's friend etc etc. These are REAL people that are not only famous, but they have interacted with both "average" and "famous" people day in and day out -and effected many lives.
My story ? Percy Heath took me out for a great day of fishing a decade back. FUN!
I had the honor and privilege to play with Jimmy Heath in my college's jazz band this past year. A wonderful man, and a great musician, to say the least.
Hey Cousins, I always love hearing you guy's Play. Our section of the Heath Family in Middletown NJ are very proud of our Philly / Wilminington cousins The Heath Brothers. We all miss Percy! Jimmy and Tootie (Kumba) Take care, Keep making your Wonderful music and God Bless you all!
tootie heath is one of the most remarkable drummers/percussionists...his spirit and creativity are a real gift to the music...showing us what it truly can be....G-d bless the heath brothers.

Very talented family to say the least.
I used to go to Percy Heaths home when I was a kid. I was friends with his son, and we still keep in touch.
