Hi all,
I watched an interesting documentary about the late Jazz drummer, Paul Motian, entitled "Motian In Motion", that was put up on youtube about a month ago. Paul Motian had an amazing career, and played with such greats as Thelonius Monk, Coleman Hawkins, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano. The movie has a lot of interview footage with Motian and musicians who played with him and it's great to hear the respect and affection with which they speak of him. I'll see if I can embed it here.
All best,
Johnm
