Elvin Jones
John Coltrane Quartet ยท 1955โ2004

Jones played rolling triplet waves across the whole kit instead of marking the beat, so the pulse felt implied rather than stated. Coltrane's most adventurous music only holds together because of that elastic time.
Take it to the kit โ Time can breathe. Feel the bar, not just the click.
