ROY HAYNES and his "SIDEMEN". Chick Corea. 9/17/10. Portland, Oregon

Roy Haynes drums (b.1925), on stage with Chick Corea keyboard (b.1941), Christian McBride bass (b.1972), Kenny Garrett sax (b.1960), THE FREEDOM BAND, takes the mic at the end of the show, after his vigorous drum solo and says, "Chick". I recorded more of Roy Haynes feelings. I have also seen another video on YouTube capturing Chick Corea introducing a song (with no title :) by pianist and composer Bud Powell. See them at http://hardchoicesblog.blogspot.com/ What a GREAT show on many levels. Thanks -Shawn Kirkeby

Oh yeah.

Happy birthday.

1928 to 1975.
Julian Edwin "Cannonball" Adderley. More at KMHD.org and click on facebook. Look for "Work Song".

John, Paul, Wynton and Jimmy. 1960. The Paul Chambers Smile

Why did he smile?
Enjoy Paul Chambers as he offers a boyish inside smile.

Comment: Ah. Correction. It's "Walkin" haha. Which is an F blues. The other is just some Rhythm Changes, though...

Comment: Chambers was so young.

JOHN GILMORE. 9/8/10
