Master Skinsman

Fab drummer Tom Major, above, and his group Entrain, brought their Bo Diddley-inspired rhythms to the Narrows Friday night.

Jazzy brass collided with rock guitar, keyboards, bass and all sorts of rhythm instruments--all quarterbacked by the amazing Tom Major.

It's not surprising that Tom pounds out that Bo Diddley sound: he was a mainstay when the recently passed rock pioneer toured.  He also worked with Southside Johnny, Carly Simon, Blood, Sweat and Tears, and Chuck Berry.

If you missed the show, it will soon be available at mvyradio.com.
