No Tain thread! I did a search and couldnt find one. I cant believe that, so Im really sorry if I just created the second and it can be subsequently delted if neccessary.
I really dig the way he plays. I first heard him on Black Codes from the Underground, but I also have some stuff he did with Branford Marsalis and I have three of his albums under his name. A really great player. The favorite stuff I have of his is Detained at the Blue Note.
 
I love his stuff with the Branford Marsalis Quartet - he absolutley KILLS. Check out this vid of the Shorter piece 'Yes or No' with Branford it is swinging!
 
Really enjoy his stuff with the Marsalis boys, as well as the 'Time is Of the Essence', with drum duties shared between Tain, Elvin and Bill Stewart.

Yes Ma'am.

Also, a friend of mine from days at the music academy is playing sax in his current ensemble...Troy Roberts. Just a scarily good player, and a top guy as well.
