If you are unfamiliar with Tom Harrell’s playing, do yourself a favor and get familiar. Tom is an extraordinary jazz trumpet player who suffers from Paranoid Schizophrenia. I saw this interview when it occurred, well before I had any clue what it actually takes to be a jazz musician.
This is not the full interview; there is a longer version on Youtube, but it has japanese overdubs.
Great video! Thanks for putting this up. I am not that familiar with Tom’s playing, but this is a very moving video.
Thanks also for the comment on my latest story!
