Roy Haynes, a cornerstone of Jazz and one of my heroes. Glad to gave seen him play live and to have shaken his hand. Lived to be 99 - what a life!
(Also frequently in the best dressed men lists in several mags…dude had style)

The Depth Charge lp will be getting a well overdue spin tomorrow
And there’s loads of material I don’t know. His excellent street photography was certainly mentioned here too
