That was a fine vintage clip of Klook - and we can learn lots from it today.

Also nice to hear Howard McGhee on trumpet, Sonny Stitt on alto and J.J. Johnson on bone

Kenny Clarke was very instrumental in inventing a style or language of drumming. Many credit him with being the father of Bebop drumming... And he is.

The only Kenny Clarke I know of was instrumental in the pioneering of and then a falling out with MJQ. He wasn't so hot on John Lewis's fresh ideas.

wow, the phrasing of his soloing is so unique. You can hear the similarities of him and Roach. They both put the period at the end of the sentence so to speak. He makes it look so effortless.

year?

The drummer.

"Klook" was such a swinging cat. Broke ground and laid the foundation for many bebop drummers who followed

it's klook!!!

So well deserved. He was the man!
Kenny Clarke is a drummer no one really knows about when he basically invented bebop! come on, the guy who invented the "ding-ding-da-ding"!!!! insane, yet, no one ever mentions him, i do not like the big band swing, of just bass snare and hi hat, if it werent for him with the ride/snare and bass improv, jazz drumming would be boring to me, ppl need to put more vids up of him soloing lol.
