With great sadness and awe I read about the demise of Max Roach while on vacation a few days ago on a national newspaper. It felt a bit awkward to read about his death on a mainstream newspaper, which never ever ever says a thing about jazz or writes obituaries of important international artists, just bullshit magazine stuff. You know you’ve been an important artist when the news of your death is even featured on a mainstream tabloid in Turkey. Now that means something!.
