#RIP Jack DeJohnette
📷 K. Abe, 1972

"I hear overtones & chords in the cymbals as well as the drums. I am hearing orchestrally. The cymbals are to my drum set what the sustain pedal is on the acoustic piano. So I am hearing colors. I consider myself somebody who colors the music."

RIP to one of the all-time greats... Jack DeJohnette has passed away at age 83. The legendary drummer is pictured here at the September 24, 1965 recording session for Jackie McLean's "Jacknife," which marked his first appearance on a Blue Note record.

Dear Politicians, sending me SMS texts like this make me *less* likely to support you. The deluge of these has to stop. & Apple needs to take blocking these numbers seriously.
