MAX ROACH hands down the best of the best!!!

The Words Greatest Jazz Drummer every drummer should know was James(Coatesville)Harris. He played and recorded with John Coltrane. Buddy Rich mentioned him on the Johnny Carson show years ago. He was a Black Drummer who Rich knew and was rated number 3 Behind Rich and Cruppa only because he couldn't read music.Max Roach May be the best alive. But the best in the begining was James (Coatesville ) Harris.
