ROY HAYNES QUARTET Vinilo y CD

Review: It's no mean feat to be amongst the most recorded drummers in jazz, but Roy Haynes is right up there thanks to a career spanning a mighty 80 years. Given his debut was in 1942 in Boston, by the time he recorded Out Of The Afternoon in 1962 he was already what many would consider a veteran. The Quartet he assembled for the album included Henry Grimes on bass, Tommy Flanagan on piano and none other than Roland Kirk on tenor sax and a host of other less obvious instruments. It's a stunning slice of post-bop from one of jazz's all-time greats, now reissued on heavyweight audiophile vinyl.
