Marvin Bugalu Smith Trio
January 6, 2019 @ 8:00 pm
About Marvin “Bugalu” Smith:http://bugaluspiritdums.weebly.com/
Marvin “Bugalu” Smith has been swinging his own as well as those of Sun Ra, Chet Baker, Archie Shepp, Charles Mingus, among others. As a young musician, Smith studied with the great master drummers: Max Roach, Elvin Jones, Philly Joe Jones, Roy Hayes, Art Taylor, and his own brother Earl “Buster” Smith.The animated, colorfully eccentric Smith has been teaching young people – in the US and Italy – to understand how the masters developed their power on the drums. Robert Kopec (bass) and myself were one of the first groups to perform at the Falcon (in it’s original location). Now this historical trio will return to the Falcon for the Sunday Night Jazz Series!
