| Was browsing the net today and came upon this by accident. In todays New York Times ( Sat 18th October) in the New York and Region Section, there is aa article and mini interview with Lees Dad and and some words from Lee too. It's quiet interesting. I dont know how to provide a link so just go to the NY Times website. | |

| I believe this might be the article in question from April 2006: Set This Idea to Music: A Stray Cat Has Nine LivesAccording to this article, Lee places the formation of the Tomcats back to September 1979. I've always liked hearing about Lee's parents, Stanley and Naomi Drucker. Stanley is a Grammy-winning principal clarinetist with the New York Philharmonic, while Naomi has received significant acclaim in her own musical career with the American Chamber Ensemble.

| They say in the comments of that video that Stanley Drucker is retiring next year... wouldn´t it be awesome that dad and son would team up in some kind of musical project??? | |
