Pittsburgh Jazz: The RH Big Band "RH Factor" by Dr. Nelson Harrison

Playing the tune 'RH Factor', a tune that came to Dr Nelson Harrison in a dream!

Sometimes it seems that life is but a "dream".

but memories do improve and seem,

do float to the top like coffee with a little cream,

and the roof is apparently held up by that beam,

unless winds rev up to change the scheme;

and the thunder like the drums wake us from the dream....

as we thank you both of reminding us what is supreme!!!

sincerely, DrB

The song title is The RH Factor not "in a dream." What I meant was I composd it in my sleep. This version is played a bit faster than it should be played. It lays much better at a more moderate tempo.

I composed this song (in a dream) for his Roger's quintet in 1983 and wrote the big band arrangement in 2000 when I joined his big band. I also authored a lyric for it although no one has ever performed it. That's me (Dr. Nelson Harrison) playing the trombone solo. This particular version is a bit brighter than normal. It lays better at a more moderate tempo. Check out my other vids on the Metaphysics of Music on YouTube.

Wow, I didn't know that he had a song called RH factor. I thought that was just the name of his band.
