REVIEW

Roy Haynes – despite his 80 years still an active drummer and bandleader – can look back upon an extraordinary career

Almost more than any other drummer, he defined the rhythm of modern playing 'behind the drums'

A role in the background gave him no satisfaction, so it is no wonder that he has more than 30 LPs to his name

The present recording, which his Quartet made together with the blind multi-instrumentalist Roland Kirk in Rudy Van Gelder’s studio in 1962, is certainly one of his very best

The seven numbers not only offer astounding moments of 'drum talk', and of syncopation carried out with absolute precision

They also offer the main soloist Roland Kirk the opportunity to display his amazing technique of simultaneous performance on some unusual instruments, in "Moon Ray" for example, or his use of various types of flute in "Snap Crackle" (see the cover text for further details), and his wealth of ideas in the ballads ("If I Should Lose You")

Perfect recording technique, brilliant arrangements of standard numbers, highly original evergreens, all played by true giants of their respective instruments – what better reasons are there to obtain this fantastic LP with its lavish gatefold sleeve?
