Charlie Hayden RIP

I was sad to learn of the death of the jazz bassist Charlie Hayden, who died last month.

Hayden played with some notable jazz performers of the 20th Century: in the ‘50s they were Paul Bley, Art Peeper and Ornette Coleman. In the ‘60s, and through to the ‘80s, Hayden played with John Handy and Archie Shepp as well as continuing to tour with the Ornette Coleman Quartet.

His recent collaboration with saxophonist Jan Garbarek and pianist Egberto Gismonti is something that I greatly enjoy listening to.

RIP Charlie
