A Cat Named Bruce Harkins played with Ira. He told Me Ira Raised Jaco Pastorious. I know Brev Sullivan, He is a Living Legend.

What type of Jazz style does Ira Sullivan play? I'm thinking bebop .. but i might be way off o.o

[mrstranger234]

Geeze. John Yarling is a beast.

[pindaric]

I caught him with Red Rodney way back when--amazing on both his main horns.
