Bobby Thomas Jr. Interview
Be bop percussionist Bobby Thomas, Jr. just blew through town to lay down some “fascinating rhythms” for the WR documentary. Bobby, a native of Miami, shared his insights into the band’s unique dynamics, both in terms of the music and their very mercurial personalities. Bobby was brought into the band through Jaco and is featured during the volcanic Night Passage period, and his reflections about the great bass master were inspiring and heartbreaking in equal measure.
