I worked at Bradley's as a barteender from '87 to '90, I met Roy when he was like 17 with Geof Keezer. Wendy brought them into play and play they did. It was when Art Blakey, John Hicks, Danny Moore,George Coleman, Kirk Lightsey, Kenny Barron, Clifford Jordan etc etc, the masters came in and played for each other and after 4am we locked up and then they played some more , great jams after dark. Bradley's was amazing.

to all you guys with an attitude,..let him sniff, snort, shoot up, or what ever he feels like doing. he is a musician, devoting his life, in order to balance our planet thru music. in order to survive in that biz you NEED an Ego, one way or the other. calling him a clown, poser, or whatever just shows so much more of YOUR State of Mind, then of his. Let him have his ways,..is he hurting anybody ? NO are you guys hurting someone by insulting an Artist ? YES clear Deal for my Opinion,..
