saxophone, tenorAbout
On one side, the legendary Boston saxophonist Ricky Ford who played with the master Charles Mingus in the late seventies and keeps a violent verve, served by a majestic sound. A unique stylist, he has showcased his invention and musicality in an abundant and eclectic discography featuring Roy Hargove, Abdullah Ibrahim, McCoy Tyner, Sonny Stitt, Jaki Byard ... Scenic monster, Ricky Ford still surprises with his indomitable energy. A colossus of the saxophone to see live! On the other, the fabulous drummer Doug Sides, born in Los Angeles in 1942, was first pianist and remains an incredible performer of Scott Joplin. Former companion of Herbie Hancock and Johnny Griffin, Lionel Hampton, Abbey Lincoln, Jon Hendricks, Joe Henderson, Chick Corea, Hank Jones Cedar Walton or Phineas Newborn, he is a reference, a beautiful stylist whose wrist speed and tonicity fascinate all drummers! A power quartet....
