R.I.P. Roy Haynes (1925-2024)

I was very sad to hear of the death yesterday (12th November) at the age of 99 of legendary jazz drummer Roy Haynes, one of the last survivors of the bebop era of the 1940s. Roy Haynes had a career that was not only exceptionally long but also exceptionally prolific: just look at the discography on his Wikipedia page! If I can add a personal note, he features on the first ever Charlie Parker LP I bought when I was about 15 and which I still have. I bought it on impulse, not really knowing who Charlie Parker was, was this record that turned me onto his music and I’ve never turned off.

No information is provided on Youtube, but the sleeve note reveals that the track was recorded from a radio broadcast live from Birdland in New York City on March 31st 1951 using a primitive disc recording machine by an amateur recording buff called Boris Rose. The sound quality isn’t great, but he deserves much greater recognition for capturing this and so many other classic performances and preserving them for posterity.

The personnels consist of Charlie Parker (alto saxophone), Dizzy Gillespie (trumpet), Bud Powell (piano), Tommy Potter (bass) and Roy Haynes (drums).

Here’s what the sleevenote (written by Gary Giddens) says about this track:

“Anthropology is an “I Got Rhythm” variation which originally appeared, in a slightly different form, as “Thriving on a Riff” on Parker’s first session as leader. The tempo is insanely fast; the performance is stunning. Bird has plenty of ideas in his first chorus, but he builds the second and third around a succession of quotations: “Tenderly”, “High Society”, “Temptation.” Gillespie’s second chorus is especially fine – only Fats Navarro had comparable control among the trumpeters who worked with Bird. His blazing high notes tend to set his lyrical phrases in bold relief. Bud, the ultimate bop pianist (and much more), jumps in for two note-gobbling choruses: no quotes, though, it’s all Powell. The four bar exchanges that follow demonstrate Haynes’s precision.

It’s a very exciting track not least because of the contributions of Roy Haynes, not only in the chase sequence mentioned in that quote but throughout the track where he demonstrates tremendous energy and imagination as well as control at such a high tempo.

Rest in peace, Roy Haynes (1925-2024), one of the greatest of all jazz drummers.

Neurological problems of jazz legends

Many great jazz musicians have faced neurological issues throughout their careers. Cole Porter, for example, remained incredibly productive despite severe leg injuries from an equestrian accident, but ultimately passed away due to osteomyelitis, amputations, depression, and phantom limb pain. George Gershwin struggled with uncinate seizures and a personality change, and ultimately herniated from a benign brain tumor. Thelonious Monk's erratic moods were reflected in his music, and he ultimately passed away from cerebrovascular events. Charlie Parker struggled with mood lability and drug dependence, ultimately living as hard as he played his famous saxophone lines. Charles Mingus hummed his final compositions into a tape recorder as he died of motor neuron disease. Bud Powell suffered from severe posttraumatic headaches after being struck by a police stick while defending Thelonious Monk during a raid on a Harlem club. These musicians have all left their mark on the jazz genre, despite the challenges they faced.
