Active since the early 1940s, the veteran jazz drummer Roy Haynes shows no signs of letting up in the early 21st century as he leads yet another generation of accomplished young jazz musicians through a bop-inspired set, including the classics "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" and "Solar."
Down Beat (p.77) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Haynes is a fireball of enlightened, precision energy....the aggressive density and design of his rhythms are exactly what he intends..."
JazzTimes (p.98) - "Haynes drives his youthful quartet with supreme agility....Deep into an illustrious musical life, the man stands as a beacon of inspiration to all jazz instrumentalists." |
