This is someone I want to know more about. Thank you for the post, rb.

The Survivor Suite by Keith Jarrett's american quartet is one of my favourite albums of all time.

Dewey was a true individual.

I was listening to Pat Metheny's 80/81 when I heard he passed away, although I knew he was in a coma hence why I spun it.

Sad news, he was an amazing player

i have a deep affection for old and new dream's live album "playing"--particularly the version of ornette's "happy house"--everyone on that track is at the top of their game, but dewey and eddie blackwell in particular are amazing on it.

survivor's suite is lovely as well.
