Double post tonight but if I sleep on this, I'll loose it.

Meet Elvin Jones. In this clip, he's driving the train. You should know that Elvin has perfect pitch and always knows the song as well or better then anyone else in the band. He actually sees the differen't [chord] changes, as different colors.

When I listen to him play, I hear what I call "controlled chaos." It's explosive. It's mean. Check it out:

Update (post title updated too):

I realized that I should clarify the larger idea that this post illustrates (to me, anyway). In college, I spent many hours searching for rare video clips of some of my favorite musicians. The frustrating thing was that I always knew that TONS of good video existed; but was just locked in some dusty archive, waiting to deteriorate.

Occasionally, partial clips would show up here or there, but that just made me realize how much more there must be. Anyway, it's all bubbling up to the surface now with free internet video and the good folks that keep uploading it. This really is a beneficial service to the overall good of humans. This part of our society/history urgently needs Interest Injection(TM).
