Booooo! Jack DeJohnette is THE greatest drummer in jazz today! He is the last innovator to come along. Just ask guys like Bill Stewart, Jeff Ballard, etc. He was recently voted into the Modern Drummer Magazine Hall Of Fame. However, that should have happened about two decades sooner! No one has invented a new way to swing since Jack. REQUIRED LISTENING: Pat Metheny "80/81", John Abercrombie "Timeless", Dave Holland Trio "Triplicate", plus Jarrett's Standards Trio, to name but a few! If you got ears, you gotta listen!
