One of my favorite Hard Bop drummers, a native son of Washington D.C., a link to Jazz's past and a mentor to it's future has gone off to join the great immortal orchestra in the ethereal stratosphere.  
 

Thank you Jimmy.

Thanks for posting this ... Listened to the Village Vanguard show (link in story) this morn.

His drumming style was influential for sure:
