Louis Hayes!

For those of you who missed it, Kenny Washington is now posting on Instagram (!) and he broadcast an inspiring and informative Instagram Live session last Saturday afternoon (check it out as I believe it is archived). I really hope he does more of these!

Someone asked Washington about his approach to playing uptempos and, of course, Louis Hayes' name came up (and as Kenny recommended, check out Hayes' drumming on "Easy to Love" from Cannonball Adderley's album Nippon Soul). 

 

It's also Louis Hayes' birthday today (!) so I thought I would share some great footage and a pair of interviews with the Master himself:
