More on Terry Adams
Description from Wikipedia:
Terry Adams is an American pianist/composer and a founding member of
the highly eclectic musical group NRBQ (New Rhythm and Blues
Quintet/Quartet), known for its prolific and highly-energized live
appearances, its charming sense of humor, and an ability to cover vast
stylistic territories including rock, blues, country, pop, and jazz.
Adams was born (August 14, 1948) in Louisville, Kentucky where he met
fellow resident Steve Ferguson, a singer and virtuoso guitarist who
would also become a charter member of NRBQ. His older brother Donn
Adams has served in various support roles with the band, including
playing the trombone (as part of the "Whole Wheat Horn" section) and
writing liner notes.
