It’s a Holiday Party on Broadway!!! December 2008
Local Long Beach merchants on Broadway stayed open late serving up live music, holiday beverages and tasty treats – along with amazing shopping deals.
Sasha wanted to be the best party on the block, so she hired us to play live music.
Wow, what an excellent idea. Live music will make any party the best.

Listen to Cool Bass
July 10, 2008 · 2 Comments
I have been listening to The Tom Warrington’s Trio CD Titled “Back Nine” on Jazz Compass.
Click to see Back Nine song list.
Larry Koonse – guitar
Joe La Barbera – drums
Tom Warrington – bass
There is a lot to listen to, but I really like the song “Nardis” (Miles Davis). “Nardis” is a duet between Joe La Barbera and Tom Warrington. I only listened to the beginning of the song at first so that I could get an idea of what the head sounded like. After I felt like I could recognize the main part of the melody, I listened to the drums. It’s cool to hear Joe La Barbera’s interpretation of the melody.
Tom Warrington will be playing in the Joe La Barbera Quintet on July 31st at Charlie O’s in the city of Van Nuys (California).
