Mr. Jones
“The music I’ve wanted my groups to play is what I considered to be a pure form from music. When you hear the music you can feel it, and the people playing have a kind of rapport with each other so they project a definite kind of contemporary and spontaneous… well, they swing. I like to be moved. I like to feel things. I like to feel music because that the way I am… I want to enjoy myself; I want to to enjoy life, and when I enjoy myself then I think it’s an honest kind of effort I have put forth to function as a musician and an artist.”
RIP

Reading about his death this morning really knocked me down, I think. His music is dear to me.
