He was an unbelievably sweet guy who was very very cool and encouraging of the local DJ and musician scene. Big big loss.

Karl Berger, vibraphonist, composer, educator and friend of Ornette Coleman passed away today aged 88. I knew him as a member of Conjoint, who put out some fantastic albums in the 90s. David Moufang aka Move D is also in the band.

Shit, another great, his contribution to the free jazz scene cannot be understated. He dug playing with younger kids too.

Jack Wilkins was born on June 4, 1944, lived all his life, and died last Friday (May 5) in New York City. A great all-around guitarist, he worked with everybody from from Charles Mingus to Stan Getz to the Brecker Brothers.
His best known track, a cover of Freddie Hubbard’s Red Clay, was sampled by ATCQ, Chance The Rapper, Angie stone and more. The whole album Windows is dope.

Impossible to overstate her importance to Brazilian music, particularly Rock and Roll. She was a giant.
