Marshall, Texas is my hometown. I was born there in 1945 and left in 1961 for Arkansas.

Brings back wonderful memories from 50 years ago. My father singing and dancing along with Omar Sheriff records during family get togethers. When Omar came to Los Angeles many years the place was packed. And it rocked. Omg! He was one of a kind.

The Trio followed his direction very well came in and dropped out on cue making for a very good ensemble.

Troubled Genius.......I spent many years by this mans side he was complex, complicated and one of a kind....he had unaddressed mental health issues that caused him mood disorders and paranoia.....he was a brilliant bluesman and authentic as the day is long......

Well, didn't know Marshall, TX was birthplace of Boogie Woogie music. Nor have I ever heard of this guy, until now. Love it! What a great musician! Thanks!

Me either so I asked Siri and she said it was developed by African-American culture in the late 1800's, but no place of origin. However there was an attaching illustration of Boogie-Woogie with 3 descriptive sections: Stylistic origins > Blues; Cultural origins > Late 19th Century, Piney Woods of NE Texas, US; Derivative forms > Rock and Roll, Rockabilly, Rhythm and Blues . So I looked up Marshall, Tx. in Maps, sure enough NE Texas.........

The talents of humanity humble me in their vast and varied ways. I've lived 55 years of life. A life of leisure, comfort and indulgence. Music is one of my great pleasures. Yet this is the first time I've ever had the pleasure know this man and his band existed. Let alone how amazing they are. Thanks for posting this.

I knew Omar in his Sacramento Days. I loved leaning against the wall in the old Torch Club's hall way and watching his fingers dance on the keyboard. This brings back so many memories. Thank you for posting it.

Dave was a friend of mine. One night in Fresno, California in the mid 80's, I was producing a Lionel Hampton show. After the concert I was in Lionel's Green Room and he asked me if I was hungry. I said yes. He asked me if I had a car. I said yes. He asked me if I knew where to get a good steak. I told him Richard's Steakhouse on Belmont and he said let's go. My friend "Omar" was playing piano there regularly and I couldn't wait to show up with Lionel to introduce him to him. We came in just at the end of his first set. We all sat down and talked. Fantastic stories from both. Especially how Lionel discovered Dinah Washington. To start the second set Dave called Lionel up and they a duet of Hoochie Coochie Man by Muddy Waters. I cried to be there.

John Tennison didn't show anything of the sort. He made it fit with Marshall by leaving out crucial information which points at a more likely region.
