Yep. Just FYI, Glenn, there's another thread somewhere on the forum. In other words, it hasn't gone unnoticed.
I've been listening to him the last couple of days and sometimes it's like hearing him for the first time. I like to think that I'd play a bit like Elvin if I played drums (and if I still played music of that style, I guess).
So very much more than just a monster player. Hell of a musician.

Guess I gotta go dig out the old jazz records and take a trip down memory lane.

Bill, it got me there. I also listened to the Art Pepper at the Village Vanguard series yesterday. Whew!!! the combination of Art's impassioned, searing playing and Elvin also made for some beautiful music!!
