SKF NOTE: Listening this morning to tenor saxophonist Don Byas‘s CD Riffin’ and Jivin’. Mr. Byas is one of those great musicians I haven’t listened to much. Last night, combing through a large box of my CD’s, I came across Riffin’ and Jivin’, and decided I would dig deeper into Don Byas’s jazz contributions.
With the CD playing softly in the background, and me at work on my computer, a cool drum solo on the song, Rosetta, grabs my total attention. The drummer is Buford Oliver – a name brand new to me. Great! I love discovering drummers. Looking forward to learning about, and hearing more, from Buford Oliver.

Wow – Buford Oliver … Terrific Drummer. It’s always fun when you think you’ve heard most of the great players from the 1940s or any era, and suddenly find someone totally ‘new.’
