Favorite Jazz Tune

Hard to pick just one, but "Afro Blue" has been running through my head lately.

I'll add another voice to the choir of waaaay too hard to pinpoint. With that said I love Art Blakey's Moanin...how could a drummer not?

Anything by Monk, but esp the early Blue note stuff. Those recordings have a quality that just can't be recaptured even with modern improvements in recording. Kind of like vintage drums.

I guess Round Midnight, and Moanin would be some of my favorite tunes...

ask me tomorrow, and I'll have a different answer. Or even an hour from now.

opus 1 grew up with that song

April 2nd 1969 scarfed pink champagne holly wood and 65/66 downbeat snare, and , supra same year very minty kit old pies
66/67 downbeat with canister
Super 400 small round knob
1967 super classic obp





once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

I truly believe his confidence was a major reason why he was such an amazing drummer. He was absolutely fearless behind the kit and NEVER hesitated or doubted. Whether it was a very complex groove or a string of amazing fills, he flat out never doubted himself. He just did it.

Guys, saw Roy Haynes a couple weeks ago from the second row at the Rialto in Atlanta. Such power from such a little guy. OK, a little guy with what had to be two left hands. His quartet had a wicked "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" adaptation. I'm still listening to it in my head.
