Joe Miquelon of The Elders
With The Elders almost a year now, Joe Miquelon has had his profile added to the official website.
I’ve been watching for this update for many months now, but with sharper Elders’ eyes than mine, Ellen spotted the addition of Joe’s bio first.
And what a fantastic history Joe already has:
I didn’t realize that Eric Clapton and Taj Mahal’s (if you don’t know who HE is, look it up!), rhythm sections and Bob Seeger’s drummer were from Tulsa until I started “making the rounds” sitting in on my horn back then. Leon Russell (another Tulsa native and personal hero) had his studio and “Shelter” recording label based there as well. I played in a horn band 6 nights a week that eventually led to playing with the Temptations, The Four Tops, and the Spinners… I also played a short while with Asleep at the Wheel as well, All through Tulsa connections.
