Cool Video
When I visited my family yesterday, someone mentioned that Uncle Tommy had videos on YouTube. I came home last night and searched and found two videos. I also did a Google search on Tommy Crook, hoping to find a website. I did not find a good website dedicated to him but found lots of information. I knew that Uncle Tommy played jazz guitar but did not know the extent of his influence or abilities. He was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame this year.
He plays at the Lanna Thai Restaurant on Memorial in Tulsa, Oklahoma every Friday, 7:00 - 10:00 pm

hello! i found your blog while looking for info on Tommy Crook - your uncle? I am one of many guitarists who idolise his playing.
Unfortunately he's hardly ever recorded. On the liner notes to a cd he did with Anthony Weller, it states he recorded some 75 tunes in 2000 which have never been published. Do you know any way I can contact Tommy by email? I live in Australia. This music should be made available, it's a crime that it's locked away somewhere. Thank you and best wishes.
