Guy Berger Posted September 9, 2009 Report Posted September 9, 2009 I was listening to "Summertime" off My Favorite Things today. He would get better over the next five years, of course, but he was already awesome in 1960. Quote

tranemonk Posted September 9, 2010 Report Posted September 9, 2010 I completely concur.. One of my top 3 or 5.... Since we're on a Mosaic kick today, let me mention that the OOP Elvin Jones Blue Note set is a great Mosaic and one of my very favorites. Quote

marcello Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 Elvin Jones Trio - David Williams Elvin Jones Ryo Kawasaki Rochester, N.Y. 1976 Quote
tranemonk Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 I had the pleasure of seeing perform live Elvin 4 or 5 times... A gentleman who always had a great band! He is sorely missed. Quote
