Living Legend
Harvey Mason
Harvey Mason's uncompromising quest for excellence has impacted the shape and form of music and musicians for the past three decades and will continue to keep him at the forefront of not only jazz, but that of pop, rock, orchestral, R&B, hip-hop, world and Latin, for decades to come.
Harvey Mason Quote
Be True to
yourself
“Do all the listening you can, to everyone who is on record, or live. Try to evaluate what really makes them function in the setting they're in. Try to add it to your arsenal or repertoire so that when you're in a situation, you have more things to call on. Listen to the music and try to figure out what your instrument does in various situations. Don't be intimidated by anyone musically, and just do what you do best, and feel good about doing it. All you can do is what you do. You can't do what anyone else does. If you've prepared enough, and have listened enough, and are musically sympathetic to a situation, you usually end up doing okay.” -Harvey Mason, Modern Drummer interview with Robyn Flans (1981)
