81st birthday of Jimmy Garrison

(Born 3 March 1934, Miami, US)
Bassist of the classic John Coltrane Quartet (full personnel: Coltrane, tenor and soprano saxophones; McCoy Tyner, piano; Garrison, bass; Elvin Jones, drums), 1962-1965, whose recognisable propulsive drive invigorates the group’s distinctive swinging oeuvre
