RIP Alfonse Mouzon

Quite a resume and Weather Report founding member.

RIP, ALphonse. 

Saw him once with Larry Coryell and Eleventh House. It was a double bill with Billy Cobham Band at Avery Fischer Hall in NYC mid 70s. Two of the best drum solos I've ever seen outside of the GD. Play on drummer......

While it's not about Mouzon, I just came across this great music article. Worth the time to read,especially if you grew up in the NY music scene of the 70s.

I have a couple McCoy Tyner CD"s he plays on, and of course the Weather Report one of my favorite bands.

RIP
