OFF: Better popular bands??

[Stuart A Hamilton]

Well, he  appeared at the Zambiland Orchestra shindig, which was recorded
for release.  Don't know when.  But recently his main thing is Jazz Is
Dead., which as the name suggests is a jazz tribute to the Grateful Dead.
They've played all over the US and last I heard consisted of;
Jimmy Herring, T Lavitz[ex Dixie Dregs], Alphonso Johnson [ex Weather
Report/Santana], and the legendary Billy Cobham.
He's also in Frogwings, a seven piece put together by Uncle Butch Trucks
and Derek Trucks.  Oteil Burbridge from the Allmans is also on board and
apparently they're doing a jazz/blues/funk thing up and down the US East
Coast.
