A legend passes. I do remember when the Buffalo Phil would play in NY at Carnegie and would need an extra tuba, Harvey would be hired. He also had a great sense of humor on the stage. I remember once one of our bass players was a little late and went scampering across the stage. As he passed Harvey, Harvey gave a big "TOOT" at which our player must have jumped ten feet in the air.
He will be missed.
