Gheorghe Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 wow, that´s great new in such sad times with so many greats gone. I love him. His Percussion work is such Incredible. I think the first great solo of him I heard on "Summit Meeting at Birdland" with Bird, where he Plays a Long solo on "Broadway". And the tracks Bird, Bud, Mingus, Art Taylor, Candido from Mai 1953 on ESP Disk. And I saw the Video of Dizzy´s Dreamband from 1982 with Candido. He still looked the same, he seems to be Young forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Happy Birthday, and my best wishes! May you reach 100! I used some of his solos for my students to memorize, because they were so clearly structured and executed, and his rolls impeccable.

I don´t have students, but now I know WHY I love his work so much. It seems that he was very much in Action at Birdland in the early 50´s. The Billy Taylor trio is also a Formation that worked at Birdland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
