Actually! this does have some tuba content. I am a big fan of Mr. Grimes bass playing.. and I listen to a lot of free jazz. He played on a lot of records back in the 60's, and i remember reading in the liner notes to one of my albums that he actually went to Juilliard for tuba.. or did some tuba playing there or something...I will dig it up and see what it says. That's a really great story though, its really great that he is back on the scene. I WISH HE WOULD HAVE PUT HIS TUBA SKILLS TO WORK IN FREE JAZZ! that would have been awesome... there arent enough Avante-garde jazz tubists.

listen to Roy Haynes - "Out of the Afternoon" to hear Henry Grimes playing his ass off.

Thank you for posting that story! It really brightened my day.
Andrew
