Another great one passes on. Elvin Jones was an amazing drummer who played on many of Coltrane's key albums including A Love Supreme, and My Favorite Things. He performed on a tribute album to Coltrane in 1995 on a release called After The Rain. John McLaughlin and Joey De Francesco accompany him. Be sure to check this release out for a modern recording of not only great jazz but also a great drummer.
One of the most tasteful jazz drummers that ever lived.
