Although he wasn't a drummer, I hate to announce the passing of Pete fountain at age 86. One of the greatest Dixieland jazz clarinetist of all time. the passing of any musician of this caliber deserves notice. RIP. A traditional jazz funeral is in the making.
Saw him numerous times, always a pleasure whether in a concert hall or a parade. Now he's swinging with the awesome clarinet section of Benny Goodman, Jimmy Dorsey and Woody Herman.
