He had a son. A drummer who studied with Elvin Jones. Reggie became my musical friend.I played bass and originally guitar unfortunately Reggie Pennsylvania rather young and then he doesn’t like to talk about it even in his autobiography he doesn’t mention about veggie haven’t passed away so I must’ve heard him greatly

Benny is not dead

Benny Golson joined Jon Batiste and his band Stay Human a few nights ago on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. They played a lot of Benny’s well known compositions like Killer Joe.

Pls. get your facts straight on matters concerning life and death. Benny Golson lives... in legend, in music and in body.

Thanks for nailing it. That's the best possible description of the jazz community's enduring view of Clifford's death. It remains raw all these years later, even for those who weren't alive at the time. It's JFK. That's it. I hung out with Clifford's widow, LaRue, once (she was still youthful in the late 1980's when I played with Illinois Jacquet on the Norway jazz cruise). If your analogy had occurred to me at the time, I'd have offered it to her, and I have no doubt she'd have really dug it.

His valves probably weren't moving as fluidly as he wanted so he oiled them

Danke Fabian! Ja, die Vereinsmitglieder und ihre Helfer haben echt eine Brücke nach Afrika gebaut. Absolut bemerkens,- und unterstützenswert! :)

Uriel Torres True. The way Benny transforms the story's emotions into sound is just as heartbreaking as it is beautiful.

it is. glad you enjoyed it :)
