Bob Harrington

Robert Maxon Harrington (January 30, 1912, in Marshfield, Wisconsin – August 20, 1983, in Kona, Hawaii) was an American jazz vibraphonist.

Harrington was also adept at drums and piano in addition to vibraphone. He played with Charlie Barnet in the early 1950s on piano, and worked with both Red Nichols and Bud Freeman that decade as a drummer. On vibraphone, he played with Georgie Auld, Buddy DeFranco, Vido Musso, Ben Webster, Ann Richards, and Harry Babasin's Jazzpickers. He released one solo album, ''Vibraphone Fantasy in Jazz'', on Imperial Records in 1957, which is now a collector's item. Provided by Wikipedia
