Since arriving in NYC in 1966 Harper attracted the attention from some of jazzdom's giants - Gil Evans, Max Roach, Thad Jones, Mel Lewis, Lee Morgan, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He performed, recorded and toured Europe, Japan, Africa and throughout the United States from 1966 to 1979 with these groups, as well as The Billy Harper Quintet which was highlighted on the NBC-TV special, "The Big Apple." With more exposure came bigger audiences and bigger demands for appearances....
