This week’s Hum
starts out with a bit about the improv trio
Holshouser, Bennink and Moore
, (aka Third Man Trio) coming to town next
Tuesday, Oct. 20
, for a
Redwood Jazz Alliance
show
in HSU’s Fulkerson Recital Hall. The interview with the band’s reeds player,
Michael
Moore
, (
a Humboldt native
) mentions Dutch jazz icon
Han Bennink
, the wildest drummer I’ve ever heard.
Michael Eldridge of the RJA sent a link to today’s edition of
A Blog Supreme
, the National Public Radio
jazz blog
, which includes the above vid showing Bennink demonstrating his mad skills on a Dutch late night show. Check Blog Supreme for three more Bennink vids showing him playing a
drum kit made of cheese
.

Good stuff, Bob. Thanks.
