“Legend of Jazz”, “Jazz Icon”, “Jazz Giant” ? The great Anglo-Saxon press competes with discovery. What are you trying to say? Something very simple but hard not to say clichés: One of the greatest composer-actors (musicians) of the past seventy years, Mr. Wayne Short, born August 25, 1933 in Newark (NJ), Died March 2 in a Los Angeles hospital. He’s 89 years old, and in a scientifically verifiable way, 89 ways to invent “jazz” at any one time.
Three highlights of his pursuit of intimacy and rigor: Jazz Messengers with drummer Art Blakey (who later became music director); Sharing Miles Davis’ Most Stunning Quintet, The Second (1964-1968), according to Meyer A real designer, according to Stanley; a weather reporting group founded in 1970 by Joe Zawinul and Miroslav Vitous.

Father Joseph was a welder for Singer Co., and mother was a seamstress. Everything was in order. The brothers, the music of the body, are also passionate about painting, science fiction, radio soap operas and Movie Morning at the Adams Theatre.
