Old Fashioned Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 A jazz giant has passed away. I first discovered this earlier today when I was browsing the CNN website. The headline didn't include his name, but I somehow sensed it was him, even though I hoped it wasn't. He will be greatly missed. Max Roach, a Founder of Modern Jazz, Dies at 83
kfw Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Thanks for posting, Old-Fashioned. He was my favorite jazz drummer, and seemed to be a real gentleman too. For the last few years as he's been out off the scene I've often wondered how he was doing.
