You have to admire Roy Haynes. At 86, he still has so much energy. I saw him last night at Scullers Jazz Club in Boston with his quartet. The other members of the quartet were young musicians, who I am not familiar with and were excellent. Roy played amazing drums. Great night! |

Roy is amazing, at any age. I saw him during his Birds of a Feather tour in 02 and he had the energy of a 20 year old drummer. Truly one of the greatest ever.

What a great story. I can see Pat in 30 yrs still having that youthful energy and playing well too. He’s a few years older than me but I can only hope to still be around to witness it.

I have a great memory of Roy, just a
youngster at 81 presenting at the
Mondavi Center in Davis Ca. He is
a unique drummer, not afraid to up
the tempo and improve the rhythm.
For instance, the Question and
Answer album. Anyways, getting
back to his age, he gets up after the
concert, thanks the audience, and
then proceeds to complain that the
bars in Davis close too early and
where are the women at night??
Classic Roy!!
