[spacitydrummer4JC]

They don't make drummers like this anymore. It's a shame. 

[superagnitio]

I watched him in Spain, 6 months ago. Crazy stuff, crazy energy

[TheSleathable]

Its cool he still has a really old pedal

[crazy8sdrums]

Roy Haynes is tha baddest muthafer to lay a stick into a ride cymbal, and he is a fuggin pimpin player yo!

[HomicidalPicnic]

What is that song that called from 2:30 to about 3:25

[jazzcbr01]

@HomicidalPicnic That tune is Question and Answer by Pat Metheny

[TheCpksoccer]

He is old and still doing tremendous things. I really enjoyed this and liked it immensely.

Hey guys! I'm not a native language speaker.....someone can tell me what does he mean when in the beginning of the video he says: "I play rhythm....I play rhythm a ning"

thank you very much!!!

[mlcoo17]

@micchemic  " I make rhythm........ I make rhythm my name " .

[daytube]

@micchemic He says "Rhythm-A-Ning", which is the name of a Thelonious Monk tune! Roy recorded this with Thelonious and Johnny Griffin at the Five Spot in 1958.

[prdj14]

does anyone know the song from 6:45-7:40??

[daytube]

That's a Roy Haynes vamp that he often attaches to "My Heart Belongs To Daddy"

[bucatinox]

[larryhappy99]

What a great man - what fantastic heart felt earthly rhythm.

I hope I am like Roy Haynes and am still full of life at the age of 82.

[CDSJAZZ]

I heard him live about five years ago. He hit a rim shot that Chuck Webb would have loved.

[ChangitoMalo]

[Rubyzeed]

This has the Modern Drummer footage and some old clip I've never seen (check out his outfit!) but here you can hear him talk about Bird, Miles, 'Trane, etc.

[jeaninebrownmusic]

I've never seen Roy perform live so this is cool! He's like a rock star!!!

[ColmOSullivanRed]
