Philly Jo Jones...you know, I think he's around Roy Haynes level. He's great.
That one is mainly a blues, but PJ really cooks.
The thing about Rashied is that his inspirations are Art and Philly Joe, but he adds that multi-tonal avant garde thing into the mix and of course played on Coltrane's later in-your-face material. For some of those reasons, I put him above Bennink, who to me is also head and shoulders, along with Ali, above the rest of any the more 'free' drummers.
