sidewinder Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Â Not much to add but this is pretty devastating news. RIP, a huge legacy. Very strange coincidence but right as I read this news I was replaying film of him on the TV playing with Miles in 1969 in that Ronnie Scott documentary.

mjazzg Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Just such a great legacy. Sad but he did seem to be more frail each time he was in public recently. 89 years, that's a good innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost of miles Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 When you think about the breadth and duration of his career--not to mention the talent--Wayne belongs in a very, very small group of musicians that includes Duke Ellington, Mary Lou Williams, and Miles Davis. His legacy is immense. What a blessing that he stopped here on the planet for as long as he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
