Tom Rogers, harmonica player extraordinaire, played with Big Al Downing for a good part of his career. You will be greatly missed, RIP my friend! 811952 Senior Member Username: 811952 Post Number: 1897 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Sunday, January 23, 2011 - 10:40 am:    Sorry for your loss. RIP, Tom.

Seeing Big Al Downing's name took me by surprise. About 10 years ago I played some bass lines on an album of Christmas songs that had Big Al on it. I didn't actually play at the same time as Big Al but I did the bass line... davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 10057 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Monday, January 24, 2011 - 11:54 am:    I know you enjoyed playing with him; and if I recall correctly, you introduced me to him at a club one night about a year ago.
