Mel Brown Solo (ending of Salt Peanuts) at Jimmy Mak's

If this is the same drummer named Mel Brown, (I doubt there's another great jazz drummer named Mel Brown who looks like that...) I had the treat of being judged by him at a jazz competition a few weeks ago. I would like to emphasize the word "treat". He played with the hosting school's jazz band afterward.  Not only does he play amazing things. He does all of this without looking like any effort is used. Beautiful. He was not a very nice judge though. :-) At least he's honest.
