SUMMARY:Main Stage Marvin "Bugalu" Smith
DESCRIPTION:Internationally renowned for his thunderous technique and his j
 aw-dropping ability to swing a band\, the legendary drummer Marvin “Buga
 lu” Smith returns to his old musical home\, The Falcon\, on Sunday night
 \, November 1st. Bugalu's profoundly natural\, distinctly spiritual touch 
 on the instrument\, as well as his larger-than-life persona\, made him the
  hero of every room he's played for what will soon be 77 years — over wh
 ich time he performed and recorded with master artists Archie Shepp\, Sun 
 Ra\, James Brown\, Rocky Roberts\, Lola Falana\, Charles Mingus\, Chet Bak
 er\, George Benson\, Betty Carter\, Pharoah Sanders\, Lee Morgan\, Woody S
 haw\, Ron Carter\, Phineas Newborn\, Sam and Dave\, Wilson Pickett\, B.B. 
 King\, Earl “Buster” Smith\, and so many others. His special relations
 hip with The Falcon was forged across more than a decade performing at the
  club starting in the 2000s. Bugalu returns after years away\, and for thi
 s performance\, reunites with his 1980s Archie Shepp Quartet bandmate\, le
 gendary bassist Asante Santi Debriano\, after 40 years apart. Marvin was d
 iagnosed with lung cancer one year ago. But his unwavering commitment to u
 plift audiences and people keeps his playing as breathtaking\, moving\, an
 d healing as ever. This show will open with the debut screening of a short
 \, intimate documentary portrait of Smith\, shot last October\; joining hi
 m onstage will be an all-star ensemble featuring masterful friends Abraham
  Burton on saxophone and Esteban Castro on piano\, to help Marvin bless th
 e room once again. Come to celebrate and come to witness — Bugalu's upst
 ate homecoming approaches. Make it the night this master deserves.
