As I relocate my residence from Victoria to Edmonton, I need to take a few weeks off. So I have a few more episodes from the ‘archives’ before I start with some very interesting and entertaining new episodes.
This is Part 2 of Jazz Drumming, with Victoria drummer, composer, and educator Kelby McNayr. You’ll hear some of the ‘roots’ of today’s drumming. We talk about Art Blakey and why he’s so distinctive. Then move onto Jack Dejohnette and what makes him such an innovator.
I glommed onto Fred Hersch’s drummer—Eric McPherson. Then invited Kelby to talk about the relationship between drums and melody. Did you know that most great drummers are also pianists?
We end with a talk about jazz fusion, and Kelby’s tribute to the great Canadian drummer, Claude Ranger.
