Though some jazz purists may not have fully appreciated his gifts, I am truly sad to hear of the passing of the great Joe Sample. The jazz world, and music world at large, has lost a giant. |

He did the STREET LIFE, the only way to go. A long Crusade.

Oh yes, yossarian. As Robert Bly says so eloquently: " We did not come here to remain whole. / We came to lose our leaves like the trees, / The trees that are broken / And start again, drawing up from the great roots." -- Starting Miles’ autobiography soon. About time. One of the "great roots", one of the major trunks.

My wife used to love his playing. "Hippies on the Corner" is the one I remember. RIP

Oh no, Kenny Wheeler and now this. Joe’s playing and compositions were great. Really sad.
