Lester Young, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker--these are just a few of the jazz innovators and luminaries who have called upon the intelligent support of drummer Roy Haynes, who is also a skilled and inspiring bandleader in his own right. This 2007 three-disc retrospective box set sketches a career that ranges from the 1940s to the present day, from the frontlines of the bop revolution through the transcendent fusion work of Pat Metheny and beyond. A fourth disc of video material contains an interview, live footage of the drummer in action, and a question-and-answer session from a 2005 percussion festival.
