Yesterday , 25th of November we lost another precious soul from Great Jazz Firmament. Great, Great Chico Hamilton, left us in the age of 92. Co – creator of the Cool Jazz style, the legendary Charles Mingus drummer, composer and one of the greatest improvisers that West Coast and all jazz planet ever had. He was among most important people who made The Jazz happened ,as well as helped so many great figures which ( some of them) are still present and making history to join the club and start their successful carriers. Like Eric Dolphy , Larry Coryell , Ron Carter, Jim Hall, Charles Lloyd or Gabor Szabo , to just name the few . This is a great lost and the end of the particular era as he remained active to the very end. He recorded an album “Inquiring Minds” last month with his Euphoria ensemble,which scheduled for release in early 2014, will be the last output we got from this special musician.
R.I.P Chico
