rip tommy johnson

The vast majority of the world - or at least Americans - don't know they know who Tommy Johnson was.

But if you know the two musical notes that signaled Jaws was on the prowl, you knew Tommy Johnson. He was the tuba player that performed those two notes, along with numerous other notes for numerous other TV and film scores.

Here's a nice little obit by tuba player Roger Bobo.

RIP Tommy.
