Earl Harvin Circa 1989
Interview first, followed by 5 minute solo.
Earl is one of the baddest drummers of all time. Let history quote me here...
You can find his whole bio on myspace, but he's played with Seal, The The, Air, MC 900ft Jesus, Rubberbullet, Billy Goat, Ten Hands and, my favorite... Earl Harvin Trio, plus more than I can remember right now!
This video is from 1989 in Earl's living room in Denton, Texas. It was created and provided by D. Gregg Martinez and recently encoded and uploaded for your enjoyment by me, Jason D Jones. I hope Earl is glad to see it, even though his flat-top has been replaced by much hipper dreads.
Watch this video, love it, look Earl up on the web and BUY his stuff. When history is etched, Earl's name will be prominent among the greatest drummers of this generation.
Don't say D Gregg and I didn't tell you so...

North Texas State sounds so much better than University of North Texas. They should have never changed it.
