One of the great Jazz drummers of the last century.
From here:
Legendary jazz drummer Joe Morello, from the Dave Brubeck quartet, has died aged 82.
With the quartet he played on some of the best-selling jazz records of all time, including Take Five.
His family said he died at home in New Jersey on Saturday.
I attended a drum workshop by Joe Morello in the early ‘60s. I was flabbergasted by the elegance of his technique. As I recall, he had a rather dim view of rock drummers – something I was aspiring to be.
