SKF NOTE: North Texas State University offers this one-hour Elvin Jones jazz lecture online. I started watching from the beginning and couldn’t stop until I had watched the entire 60-minute video.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to promote the video by embedding it, with a link to the original, on my blog. So I’ve edited this clip for promotional purposes. If anyone connected with this video objects, please let me know, I will remove the video.

My hope, as I say, is that this excerpt will persuade viewers to visit the Jazz Lecture Series page and watch Elvin’s full verbal and musical performance.
