Acclaimed tubist and multi-instrumentalist Howard Johnson has died at age 79. I first discovered Mr. Johnson while listening to Taj Mahal's album, "The Real Thing." I was finally able to hear him live with his group "Gravity" at the 2014 ITEC conference, in Bloominton, Indiana. He didn't disappoint.

Thanks for posting this. I have fond memories of Mr. Johnson's tuba from Taj Mahal's "Tom and Sally Drake", from that album.
My condolences to Mr. Johnson's family and friends.
