Jimmy Cobb’s Sketches Of Spain Band

Sets 8:30 & 10:30 pm
This is an all-star band will celebrate Miles Davis’ classic recording Sketches Of Spain, which Jimmy Cobb played on. Legendary jazz drummer, Jimmy Cobb, was born in Washington, D.C. on January 20, 1929. A superb, mostly self-taught musician, Jimmy is the elder statesman of all the incredible Miles Davis bands. Jimmy’s inspirational work with Miles, John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderly and Co. spanned 1957 until 1963, and included the masterpiece ’Kind of Blue’, the most popular jazz recording in history.
He also played on ’Sketches of Spain’, Someday My Prince will Come’, ’Live at Carnegie Hall, ’Live at the Blackhawk’, ’Porgy and Bess’, and many, many other watermark Miles Davis recordings.
