Tony Allen - Moanin

[@MaximeBonnard]

This is an incredibly sad day for music. RIP Tony Allen

[@ryanmichelz94]

It's been a sad year for jazz

[@comitegenerationsdromedesc1832]

Oui, Snif !!! Très bon batteur jazzman !

[@Nemo-qh7jx]

afrobeat lives on but tony has passed

[@KisaVorobyaninovDesu]

R.I.P.

[@Indoman_71]

Jeez, and here I just saw your comment and my eyes bulged --- exactly one month after he checked outta town. Blessings to your beautiful spirit Tony Allen.

[@cguy96]

He didn’t keep the beat, he took it out, showed it a special time, and then did things with it that are beyond the imagination of mere mortals. Heavenly music just got cool.

[@zoraxye4325]

Brilliant comment. Please tell me you write for a living.

[@cguy96]

Zora Xye I am flattered! I will sadly tell you that my writing tends to be scientific or technical, rather than poetic. Although the best of this type of writing CAN be poetic, like when a mathematical proof is labelled “elegant”, or when a scientific journal article tells a story instead of being just a dry recitation of facts. Instead, I will recommend my brother-in-law, David K. Leff, who writes very amazing free verse, and what I like to call “inner travelogues”, about how travel and experience lead to a “spiritual” voyage (spiritual in the broad, not religious sense).

[@aaabehemoth1379]

Here I am, after 2 years of his passing I finally started playing drums, and I now realize how talented he is, he's been an amazing inspiration for me now

[@BrunoJedynak]

if for anything, human beings should be remembered for this!

[@philippemarijnen6791]

Nous pleurons ton rythme cardiaque qui s'est arrêté, nous gardons dans notre coeur le rythme de tes baguettes ; merci et adieu Monsieur Allen.

[@mgrdibbs]

So Loose yet so tight! What an interpretation. Stunning! RIP Tony. You were a joy.

[@ckomecki]

This is how you become a legend - most of what he does is in the realm of technical ability of a lot of drummers, but only he can do it. Also, I forever love how much he's choking up on his right stick.

[@sambabayo2656]

Il est immense .Cet art était arrivé à une hauteur difficile à atteindre. Humainement y a que de label Tony Allen pour maintenir < le monde en halène .Virtuose Tony merci de m'adoucir mes temps en ma compagnie.>

[@emmanuela7528]

Even when he played traditional jazz records, you can hear the Afrobeat. Blending genres and transcending any single one. We’ve lost a giant.

[@kayceeprag]

Rest in power. Heaven just got a drummer.

[@stevenmarr8183]

At 9:24 he drops his stick..... and you cannot even notice anything happen in his playing. Just keeps going like it didn't happen. This guy is a legend.

Le monde a perdu un morceau de son âme aujourd'hui. Ton rythme vit pour toujours. The world lost a piece of its soul today. Your beat will live forever, Tony. Rest in Power #RIPTonyAllen

[@Guembri1]

Soul of drums . RIP dear Tony

[@dikbeats2720]

Tony allen is one of the reasons i picked up the sticks 23 years ago. Still trying to learn how to put some of those rhythms down nicely today. It ain't easy. Sounds it, sometimes, but it just ain't easy! He was master and pioneer. R.I.P.

[@tmlmusic5367]

This guy doesn't move a single unnecessary muscle

[@sashadaydreamer7159]

So graceful ❤️

[@ankahl2962]

This is the reason, he played for hours with Fela Kuti a concert. Brilliant.

Je ne vois aucun rapport avec Hendrix! À part peut être « l’influence jazz », qui est d’ailleurs plus authentique et prononcée chez Allen.

Of course I do not want to compare him with Mozart, Beethoven or Bach, but if not his music, his influence will live for ever. Afrobeat will never die.
