The great TONY KINSEY was 90 years old on 11 October. Two days later he was out at Cafe Posk with Art Themen, John Horler and Andy Cleyndert. Photographer Paul Wood caught them in action. Paul writes: “Legend drummer Tony Kinsey who recently celebrated his 90th birthday, showed no sign of taking it easy behind his Gretsch drum kit, playing a mixture of Al Cohn tunes with jazz standards and original compositions from his most recent CD, Blue Circles, which the audience greatly appreciated.” Richard Williams wrote recently about this hero of British jazz HERE.
