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.
I grew up listening to Elvin, Max, Blakey, Philly Jo--the hard-percussion school as they say. Roy deserves to be mentioned with them. He is truly one of the all-time greats, and his 7-decade resume proves it. I saw him back in the late 90s when he was still a young 76 and he just kicked ass.
He takes his jacket off (6:01) without missing a beat -using his bass drum to fill in... this man not only has chops but taste, time and feel -a true master of the instrument. Wow...
I was lucky enough to be in Ted Dunbar's guitar groups at the Jazzmobile from 1974 to 1977. What a knowledgeable, creative, funny guy!!! However, he took it seriously; woe be unto anyone who came in having half-assed their homework....Ted would call you out in a minute. One guy, with a high-end guitar and an ego x2 always had every "Guitar Face" you could imagine, no matter how basic the music. Finally, Ted said, "You'd be a lot better off if you got your music coming out of your fingers instead of your face".......... BURN........
Ironman Richard Davis on bass. This man is and was a monster. One of the greatest musicians ever imo! Obviously everyone is a legend here particularly Roy, Maggie & Cecil Payne. Unusual line-up with Dunbar, Owens & Davis playing with legends from the bebop era!
George Neidorf : My wife and I saw him about a decade ago and we still talk about it. At one point, he took just his high-hat stand to the front of the stage and mesmerized the entire theatre audience with it. He is probably the coolest musician I have ever seen. And what vitality! He was in his 80’s and you could feel the force in him.
absoLUTELY! that's a big reason he's known as "Mr. Snap Crackle Pop." That and playing a lot on the rims. Bill Bruford among many others learned a lot from that.
Today's greats, such as Steve Gadd, stand on the shoulders of the likes of the Haynes, who at age 93, played the Blue note in March, 2018. Such old drummers never die, nor do they fade away!
Robert Albiston todays greats aren’t drummers like steve gadd... those are legends already. Todays greats are Marcus Gilmore, Eric Harland, Mark Guiliana, Kendrick Scott etc.....
Have you listened to Now he Sings Now he Sobs?? I gather not.. Anyway in spite of the fact that Chick has recorded with both Roy is the hippist drummer known to man. Bob Moses told me about going regularly to a session in NYC where Buddy Rich and Roy would take turns and that's where he learned that ideas creativity and big ears beat technique every time.
@@maxsergeant9934 Haynes and Gadd are still performing and stand tall, they just aren't doing what these others are developing; BTW, I was lined up to sit a few feet from Eric at the Blue Note before everything was cancelled. I'm working with a few variations in 11/4, but thanks Max.
Get this ... I actually own the baritone sax that Cecil Payne is playing on this date. Just played it last week at a local jam. It's still a pretty good-sounding horn but I've never managed to make it sound like Cecil!
Very impressive performance. Much respect to Roy Haynes and the other musicians. A basic drumkit used to the full potential as all good jazz drummers do.
ROY HAYNES--Ярчайший пример супер -ударника ,который с ног до головы был создан для игры на ударных инструментах!--Смотря на его работу,я чувствую то же ,что и РОЙ, таково его энергетическое воздействие на публику.--УРА,УРА,УРА!!!
U can see why marcus gilmore is so awsome, being roy's grandson. If u haven't checked out marcus then you're in for a treat.. One of the top boys of modern jazz..Soul..Funkhop..
this is such a badass drum solo. Everyone who reads this should check out Kevin Shea who does some drum soloing like this. Haynes is a bebop and post bop phrasing genius
Great to see a Jack Kleinsinger Presents video. Thanks! I was at NYU in the mid-70s and saw quite a few of what were mostly tribute jam sessions. Got to see lots of the NYC based musicians.
I'm deeply saddened tonight. Lester Young played GREAT. I'M sad because Roy played even greater. Tonight I Heard the best drum solo ever . Well why sad one would ask? Well we just lost one of the few great jazz players left . And I the dumb ass left broken because I threw my hold life away and maybe I could have stood tall in the music world Roy greatest reminds of a heart wrenching event .
nothing personal but u never will ! like i have mention before if 5 persons play the same exact notes of a Tony Williams or Roy Hanes on the very same kit with the same body weigt & the same weather conditions on the same place the NEVER EVER get the same sound! its the players "touch" diffrent on every single person and the jazz masters have their"signature" on that!
Fast FXS lf thats so it doesn’t show, Watts plays like a piece of stale bread or robotic mouse, which l guess the Stones need cause they’re the most stale pop rock band in history. In fact he got kicked out of a jazz band he was in before the stones because he was so bland and boring. They replaced him with Ginger Baker, a guy who can actually PLAY the drums.
Lee Konitz looked as if he was interrupted from a meal that he was just finishing with a few glasses of wine but yes, what a magical Haynes solo that was.
the dude with the Afro is that a trumpet. Or is he playing a mellohpone or something...hes holding it sideways...it looks like it has more than 3 finger valves
Lee is a true improviser - never ever resorting to licks or repeated phrases. Players like Lee are at the whim of their current situation and circumstances. It takes bravery and integrity for him, when he’s not feeling the situation, to take a solo with space and wait for the ideas. If they don’t come, he stops playing. That’s a true improviser. If he wanted, he could’ve resorted to the vast vocabulary he possesses but he didn’t. A player with integrity.
Roy Haynes is one of the all time greats. Drummer in those days simply had to work harder. They had to play in big bands, small bands, play solos, play 5 sets a night, do recording sessions. And then practice a couple of hours a day.
@@JazzVideoGuy you mean Rodeney Dangerfield _ don't get no respect.OK joke time:So this beatnik alto sax player goes into a bakery and sez "Hey like man.somebody gave me the most far out,dynamite cupcake,and like he said he got em here"And the woman behind the counter sez "Yes Sir but I am so sorry but there all gone"And the beat sez "Outasight!!!I'll take a dozen"-- Badda boom!!!! (don't blame me blame John Pizzarelli for telling that one at a gig a dozen years ago). Hey speaking of Henny Youngman what do think Miles would have said if somebody said "Your money or your life!!!!"I think he'd say "Which Wife?"No please I am not worth it.but I want you folks to know that I'll be here through Thursday and then it's a weekend run at the Holiday Inn near 5 on I-35 south of West Des Moines.I hope to see you there....Feeeeelings whoaohh feelings................
just don't care for his style. Maybe someone that knows more can explain to me whats going on here. I'm not hearing any composition in his solo, or like any real rolls.
@@JazzVideoGuy Well, again I'm not a musician so I can only go by what I think sounds good to me, but anyway I like Tony Williams, Alex Acuña, Bob Moses, Michal Miskiewicz (thomasz stanko quartet); the track Kattorna by the Thomasz Stanko Quartet is exemplary of the kind of drumming I love. Sounds corny, but it's like a sizzling fire.
Roy Haynes rushes too damned much. During Cecil's solo and especially by the time they get around to poor Lee Konitz, its up 20 clicks or so. Can't stand that in a drummer. Richard Davis making his best attempt for a while to keep it down, but what can you do.
I've got a really great app on my phone that measures tempo. It is amazingly reliable. When I read you post I decided to measure the tempo. You are correct, it does speed up, but not by as much as you suggest. It starts off at about 126 bpm, but speeds up during solo by the guy with the 'fro to about 132 and again during the solo of the first sax player to 138. It then stays there to the end of the song.
I'd actually argue that the bassist is the real culprit here. Especially when Konitz starts soloing. Poor Haynes has to pull on the reins a bit which causes him to rush himself.
Corbin Alexander Lee's not lost. He's laying down great time and ideas, but the band isn't connecting. No one is listening. The guitar playing is 'comping to himself. If Lee was more confrontational, he'd tell the guitar player to lay the F-out, the way Miles would have.
What a bombastic and insane solo. Drums sound awesome too.
No drummer on earth sounds like Roy Haynes. An American treasure!

Couldn't agree more!

Same, late 90's. I saw him and only him. Good God Amighty!

KeepTheMetalFlowing
I'm so happy that Roy Haynes is still with us. I believe an heir apparently might be the great Antonio Sanchez.
His grandson is Marcus Gilmore actually, probably one of the best drummers on the scene right now.

I love the open, undamped drum sound and the high tuning - and he isn't holding back!
I've been craving that raw sound lately. Call it crazy, but drums today sounds too good, there's something synthetic about it, not real.
absoLUTELY! that's a big reason he's known as "Mr. Snap Crackle Pop." That and playing a lot on the rims. Bill Bruford among many others learned a lot from that.
@@wonkbongdar9166 so true. they're too perfect today and thereby lack personality and soul.

Holy smokes! Never seen nothing like that on the drums! Heavy, cool, experimental, tasty, thought provoking even🤔 love it
Very impressive performance. Much respect to Roy Haynes and the other musicians. A basic drumkit used to the full potential as all good jazz drummers do.
Roy, the only guy I've ever heard that can take off his jacket in the middle of a solo and not miss a beat.
😂😂😂😂😂
Jeez...that one-handed stuff he's playing at 9:25 sure sounds like he's using both hands. The whole solo's really inventive and creative.
Sweet love Roy ! Thank you class and style and more! Great band
Our pleasure!
Very nice! I've never seen or heard Lee Konitz so ill at ease…
LOOKS LIKE HE WAS HAVING A BAD DAY, 'CAUSE YOU KNOW HE CAN PLAY HIS ASS OFF!
He looks completely wasted tbh.
Because the guitarist is giving Lee the most obnoxious, out of time comping ever!
@@MusicLiberates I agree.
Didn't seem to stop anyone else. Why'd they even have Konitz, he didn't seem to want to be there..and wasn't.
Listen to Roy Haynes also on a live version of Coltranes "My Favorite Things" . One of the very best drummers and he loves it1
What a great Drummer!RIP.
That was like all of American history in a drum solo
i think about this comment every couple weeks
@ RIP
I probably commented on this already Bret, but after hearing it again, I have to thank you again for posting it. This is quintessential Roy.

Glad you enjoyed it!
I just love Roy Haynes!
And there’s that flat-top ride on his right.
Who else uses one of those?

Unreal!
Lovely
HIP DRUMS! BEAUTFUL! POWERFUL!!,AND DIFFERANT ALL-STAR GROUP!! ROY ONE OF A KIND .....
Roy!!
fantastic . . . .
i like it
so cool!!
Roy Haynes' solo 4:51-10:27.
Rest in peace.
Wow!
Chicka chicka chick. I adored Roy Hayne's style when I was in my teens. Is he wearing his bathrobe or PJs?
Roy was a sharp dresser, no doubt about that.
RIP GOAT
Ted Dunbar is great on this one too...good stuff!
nice I like it
Love this - interesting combination of players - what’s Jimmy Owens playing?
Lee Konitz, what happened?
RIP Roy
nothing personal but u never will ! like i have mention before if 5 persons play the same exact notes of a Tony Williams or Roy Hanes on the very same kit with the same body weigt & the same weather conditions on the same place the NEVER EVER get the same sound! its the players "touch" diffrent on every single person and the jazz masters have their"signature" on that!
Oh yeah...!
Small kit ... big sound!
This is Charlie Watts of the Rolling Stones HERO.
Fast FXS lf thats so it doesn’t show, Watts plays like a piece of stale bread or robotic mouse, which l guess the Stones need cause they’re the most stale pop rock band in history. In fact he got kicked out of a jazz band he was in before the stones because he was so bland and boring. They replaced him with Ginger Baker, a guy who can actually PLAY the drums.
Roy Haynes is always good!!! Never say he is 'nt... Indeed at this set he is missing the bebop guys like Monk, Griffin or even Sonny Stitt...
THE Cecil Payne!!!
Awesome rotary solo by Jimmy Owens, who I haven't checked out. Lee Konitz wasn't playing much here. Killer drum solo
Lee Konitz didn't seem to have a chance with Richard Davis rushing as much as he did -- but what a great drum solo by Roy! Transcendent!
Prof. Ted Dunbar...and all these cats would appear regularly at the Rutgers free concerts
R.I.P Lee Konitz
Lee Konitz looked as if he was interrupted from a meal that he was just finishing with a few glasses of wine but yes, what a magical Haynes solo that was.
What happened with LK here
These drumheads seem well-worn, but he makes them sound great..
Probably calf skin.
the dude with the Afro is that a trumpet. Or is he playing a mellohpone or something...hes holding it sideways...it looks like it has more than 3 finger valves
It's a trumpet with rotary valves… rare to be seen outside Germany.
dios mio
trumpet player smokes on this also...everyone but Lee Konitz
Lee Konitz was at his best before 1955. This must have been recorded some time after that.
perrykleez yes that was a super clean trumpet solo, with real intent and delivery not often heard on “off the cuff” solos! Good stuff.
in his defense, the rhythm section starts to tear towards the end. Hard to make something happen if the pocket is off
Too bad about the on-screen interference...evidently, someone in the vicinity of your TV or computer was running something with a motor.
Just mindblowing!!...I normally love Konitz but they should have edited out his contribution here.
Oscar Grillo, I agree. Lee didn't have it together at all.
The bass players time is shitting all over the place, and Lee is getting way distracted, its just not the medium for him
Lee is a true improviser - never ever resorting to licks or repeated phrases. Players like Lee are at the whim of their current situation and circumstances. It takes bravery and integrity for him, when he’s not feeling the situation, to take a solo with space and wait for the ideas. If they don’t come, he stops playing. That’s a true improviser. If he wanted, he could’ve resorted to the vast vocabulary he possesses but he didn’t. A player with integrity.
Drums and bass were out of time. I don't blame him. He couldn't find a groove because the rhythm section wasn't locked in.
This was a time period when drummers were allowed to express themselves and even lead bands... Perhaps Chris Dave is bringing those days back.
9:36
why are old drummers better than the new ones? it seems like they're looking for the music in it, rather than trying to impress with circus technics.
you dont know much about modern drummers then.
imslicc you really need to do some homework...
imslicc
Spot on.
it's a different type of music
Roy Haynes is one of the all time greats. Drummer in those days simply had to work harder. They had to play in big bands, small bands, play solos, play 5 sets a night, do recording sessions. And then practice a couple of hours a day.
the man has tree hands!check 9:30 !

que fei chorizoooooooooooooooooooooooo
Roy Haynes rushes too damned much. During Cecil's solo and especially by the time they get around to poor Lee Konitz, its up 20 clicks or so. Can't stand that in a drummer. Richard Davis making his best attempt for a while to keep it down, but what can you do.
Noah Pettibon sorry,but he didn't speed,up!! I'll be nice to you after seeing what you play...I don't have to be but I will!!!
yes it's true he rushes a bit and for ex. on many recordings Art B is dragging but it swings just the same
He probably played it that way with bird, and of course Charlie Parker could handle any tempo! LOL maybe he just expected these guys to keep up LOL
I've got a really great app on my phone that measures tempo. It is amazingly reliable. When I read you post I decided to measure the tempo. You are correct, it does speed up, but not by as much as you suggest.

Lee konitz looked lost..couldn't dry into it..oh well..it hall
In defense of Lee, the time was really OUT during his solo. I can see why he stopped playing and wasn't as comfortable as usual.
Corbin Alexander Lee's not lost. He's laying down great time and ideas, but the band isn't connecting. No one is listening. The guitar playing is 'comping to himself. If Lee was more confrontational, he'd tell the guitar player to lay the F-out, the way Miles would have.
Aaron Wolf Roy sounds incredible.
Pq siempre sale Alex..con su propaganda que a nadie le importa
What the fuck is the bass player doing.
Yeah, I don't know if it's his, like style, but it feels like he wasn't on time
He's way too on top of the beat especially when the saxophonist starts soloing
yeah konitz never really finds a groove
