Past Run
thunder soul
It was afros and pleated shirts, James Brown and Bootsy Collins. It was the '70s, and an inner-city Houston high school was about to make history. Charismatic band leader Conrad "Prof" Johnson would turn the school's mediocre jazz band into a legendary funk powerhouse.
Now, 35 years later, his students prepare to pay tribute to the man who changed their lives--the 92-year old Prof. Some haven’t played their horns in decades; still they dust off their instruments determined to retake the stage to show Prof and the world that they've still got it.
