Finesse, subtlety, breeziness. One of the finest to ever hit the skins. RIP

RIP I first met Roy Haynes decades ago in Long Island at Sonny's Place. It was an open jam session and Roy was hanging out, as he lived nearby. Because of this when it was my turn to sit in, I had to play drums while Roy watched from the audience! Talk about utterly frightening and intimidating! Somehow I was able to relax and get through it! LOL After this chance introduction I made a point of seeing him perform every summer at the annual Jazz Mobile Grant's Tomb concert series in Harlem. I remember one particular event there, where Roy disembarked from a limo parked right on the grounds with a glass of champagne in hand, and ever so "hiply" strutted among a crowd. Which increasingly seemingly mobbed him as he attempted to continue walking. Including myself! LOL Man was he "cool". A sharp stylish dresser too! At one point he looked over in the near distance, gesturing at some brownstone buildings and proclaimed, "I used to play with Charlie Parker over there"! I also recall a mainstay of his performances consisting of only taking his hi-hat to the very front of the stage, almost at it's edge, and proceeding to delight the audience with a masterful technique and flair using his drumsticks on it! The last time I saw Roy Haynes in person, was at the jazz club Iridium in NYC. I 'd taken my girlfriend at the time there for her birthday. Unbelievably he was there at the bar hanging out with drumming legends Max Roach and Art Taylor! We were all there to see Branford Marsalis' Quartet with the great young Jeff "Tain" Watts on drums! Unfortunately, Watts was running late so Roy was asked to sit in and open the show! I was in "Drumming Heaven"! LOL Roy was amazing of course, and as an aside, both Max and Art were warm, friendly, and perfect gentlemen! When Jeff Watts finally arrived and noticed who was playing drums, he did seem a bit taken aback. But after Roy finished, he proceeded to perform in a way in which as usual, I found so inspiring! What a night, and what a memory I will always cherish. Rest In Peace Max. Rest In Peace Art. Rest in Peace Roy Haynes. Thank you for decades of INSPIRATION! My condolences go out to Craig Holiday Haynes & the entire family. 11/12/24.

Nice move Letterman crew for honoring Roy. Rest In Power legend!❤🙏

@nickelpenny1 Ай бұрын

I can’t believe he was 87 in this clip. 87!!! He still had the impeccable placement of notes and quick hands. Think people - of how hard it is for most people just to get out of bed when they reach their 70s. This man was swinging!

So freaking cool, I had no idea this even existed. THIS is why the Letterman show was the hippest late night show ever. It's also why this channel is the coolest.

Have you ever watched the late late show with Craig Ferguson?

@TTM9691 Ай бұрын

@@jamescaliendo1030 Yeah, and please don't make me laugh you off the face of the internet if you're seriously comparing Ferguson to the Letterman show. I really can't stand lower animal mediocrities, please tell me you're asking me for some other reason.

As a drummer (and a fan of Dave and Anton Fig and the band since the 1980s), I greatly appreciate that this channel would honor the memory of drumming legend Roy Haynes! 🙏🥁 I had the great fortune to see Mr. Haynes and his band live, and to meet him in person 25 years ago. The Late Show's Drum Solo Week was special to me. Dave well understood the artistry of the world's greatest drummers.

First heard Roy Haynes in early '50's with Stan Getz. He just blew me away and changed my drumming style on the spot. My pick for the best drummer in jazz from then to now, at my age of 88.

Fantastic! I'm not familiar with Mr. Haynes but I enjoyed that performance Interesting choice in drum sizes Maybe it's an optical illusion, but they all seem like the same size as the snare 14/15? Also, his right hand, kind of reminds me of Keith Moon
