    This discussion of organs strikes me as a bit strange. First - Church organs are often pipe organs that sound (to me at least) dramatically different than Hammond electric organs frequently played by jazz musicians.Though there are other electric organs also used in jazz and other settings. Second - Jazz organists do not all sound the same. Compare for example Jimmy Smith with Wild Bill Davis. Also think of Larry Young, Don Patton, Milt Buckner, Akiko, Shirley Scott, Mike LeDonne, Johnny Hammond Smith, Lonnie Smith,Bill Doggett, and on and on. So to refer to jazz organists as sounding like Roller Rink Roly Poly organists is, in my view far far from accurate. Sorry, Don Patterson Not Patton.

    Absolutely one of the greats. 83 is too young — or at least a little younger than need be. RIP.

    This is a bummer. Such a great player. Subtlety at its finest.

    Got to see him at Big Ears with the second generation of Coltrane and Garrison. I have known and respected his name for almost 50 years.

    Terrible news for the beginning of the week. I'd only recently pulled out the ECM Special Edition set for a re-listen.

    Yep. I hate the Dodgers, but gotta tip the cap to Yamamoto for hurling back-to-back complete-game victories in the NLCS and now the World Series.

    The eagle has landed! Won't get a chance to start listening to it until this evening.

    This one really hurts. Jack Dejohnette was not only one of the greatest and most original drummers. He was a titan of jazz music in every aspect. Irreplaceable! We posted at exactly the same time with exactly the same thought!
