Hendrik Meurkens had a solid reputation as a vibraphonist--touring and recording with some of the greatest jazz musicians in the business--when he heard harmonica master, Toots Thielemans, which inspired Hendrik to teach himself to play harmonica, an instrument that only a few jazz musicians master.
His latest CD, Cobbs Pocket, celebrates those elements with three of his favorite musicians, drummer Jimmy Cobb, organist, Mike LeDonne and guitarist, Peter Bernstein.
