Maxwell Lemuel Roach (January 10, 1924 - August 16, 2007) was an American jazz drummer and composer. A pioneer of bebop, he worked in many other styles of music, and is generally considered alongside the most important drummers in history. He worked with many famous jazz musicians, including Coleman Hawkins, Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, Abbey Lincoln, Dinah Washington, Charles Mingus, Billy Eckstine, Stan Getz, Sonny Rollins, Eric Dolphy, and Booker Little. He was inducted into the DownBeat Hall of Fame in 1980 and the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1992.
Roach also co-led a pioneering quintet along with trumpeter Clifford Brown and the percussion ensemble M'Boom. He made numerous musical statements relating to the civil rights movement.
Max Roach was born to Alphonse and Cressie Roach in the Township of Newland, Pasquotank County, North Carolina, which borders the southern edge of the Great Dismal Swamp. The Township of Newland is sometimes mistaken for Newland Town in Avery County, North Carolina. Although his birth certificate lists his date of birth as January 10, 1924, Roach has been quoted by Phil Schaap, saying that his family believed he was actually born on January 8, 1925.
Roach's family moved to the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York, when he was four years old. He grew up in a musical home with his gospel singer mother. He started to play bugle in parades at a young age. At the age of 10, he was already playing drums in some gospel bands.
In 1942, as an 18-year-old recently graduated from Boys High School, he was called to fill in for Sonny Greer with the Duke Ellington Orchestra performing at the Paramount Theater in Manhattan. He starting going to the jazz clubs on 52nd Street and at 78th Street & Broadway for Georgie Jay's Taproom, where he played with schoolmate Cecil Payne. His first professional recording took place in December 1943, backing Coleman Hawkins.
He was one of the first drummers, along with Kenny Clarke, to play in the bebop style. Roach performed in bands led by Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Coleman Hawkins, Bud Powell, and Miles Davis. He played on many of Parker's most important records, including the Savoy Records November 1945 session, which marked a turning point in recorded jazz. His early brush work with Powell's trio, especially at fast tempos, has been highly praised.
Roach nurtured an interest in and respect for Afro-Caribbean music and traveled to Haiti in the late 1940s to study with the traditional drummer Ti Roro.

Max is the greatest. He never overplayed. He was confident in his skill, never felt he had anything to prove to anybody...
A genius at work.
Humble geniuses are the best. Showboating is just overcompensating or narcissistic and ruins great music. This is some spot on writing in my opinion. We are all one. Make America Honest Again
Only realised it was in 5/4 when Max started playing phrases he usually plays in 3/4… incredible.
I knew something was off!
proof that punk and elegance are not mutually exclusive.unfucking real.somebody give that camera-man a medal too.
I could never hold a bass line like that while the drummer is going nuts. Amazing.
Bass line is the lead... everyone else plays off of..
Sorry ,the name of the bass player ? And piano if you know, thanks in advance
@@zuconne3334 Eddie Khan is the bassist . Not sure of the pianist.
The saxophone player is like a statue when he's not playing. Reminds me of the changing of the guards guys who stand motionless for long periods of time without blinking.
He was lock ed in with the high hat.
Never lost time the whole piece
Pure gold! Love Max Roach especially.
Mind blowing masterpiece. Master drummer and composer, his then wife with her unbelieveble art of vocal expression of any kind of human feelings. Also great contribution of all members of this quintet: Cliff Jordan on sax, Eddie Khane on bass and (very underrated and almost unknown composer and pianist) Coleridge Perkinson on piano. Best regards from Slovenia!
Max Roach wasn't ever playing on the same planet as anyone else.
Agreed, unreal playing. Self taught as well.
My favourite drummer. Have you heard Max drum solo on Sonny Rollins, Album: Saxophone Colossus ( 1956) track : Blue seven.
Totally. He made them.
5/4, music's most defiant rhythm.
nah
Hardly
Agreed
My god, this is perfection....
This is pure soul.
I have no words....
Your words are perfect praise
@@astraluna6is9 so, so beautiful.
Abbey Lincoln was a phenomenal musician and knew her instrument well.
POWERFULL !!! Max on Drums and Abbey 's haunting vocals ~
One of the coolest things I've ever witnessed. DAMN
the first time after 40 years i finally understand max roach... i've had it wrong for years
They are all magnificent, but holy f*cking shit Max Roach!
Is it just me seeing Kirk, Spock and Uhura flying by in an earth near orbit, wondering what´s going on there?
Love it. If this was today, there would be a new camera angle every second, a bunch of focus pulling in and out, whip pans and glide cams galore. Also the set design is Art. And Max and Abbey together--it doesn't get any better.
Absolutely wonderful!!!
Max used two different size hi hat cymbals. Unusual.
He said cymbal sizing forced sound out
Just noticed that for the first time and searched to see if anyone else commented on it. I want to try that now.
@@jmfs3497 I've tried the 13" over 14" ala Max Roach. With the shoulder of the stick you're playing the bottom hat and with the tip of the stick you're playing the top hat, when the hats are closed. I personally wasn't a fan of it, but he made it work.
Such a class, ✊🏽 this is human heritage!!!!!!
No comment just pure original music 😎♫♪♫♪♫
Georgios Vlachos / 6th of March 2022 / Greece
58 years have passed since this jazz piece. The amazing playing on drums by Max
Roach and the wonderful voice of Abbey Lincoln, donate to us an unforgetable duet.
Masters of American Music! Love it, thanks for posting. Max Roach!
3:00 John Bonham got one of his licks from Max!
Well sure, Bonham also takes parts of The Drum Also Waltzes, you can it that clearly during his drum solo in the Royal Albert Hall performance filmed in 1970
@@humbertosandoval55 Hey, if you are going to steal, steal from the best.
Bonham was playing tribute to the master. Bonham loved Max.
He was pulling more from Elvin.
2:28 OMG! Amazing!
hahaha you got that right!
Clearly they have lived in an era of gentlemen, ladies and talent. The diversity and depth of this masterpiece cannot be found nowadays.
Also an era of Jim Crow unfortunately.
And heroin...lots and lots of heroin
Eh. You're just not looking hard enough.
... but also an era of true musicianship and the classic jazz sounds instrumentally and vocally. True jazz 1946-66.
Towards the end, the quality of her voice and even some of the notes/phrasing remind me of Clare Torry's beautiful, soulful work on "The Great Gig in the Sky" on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album.
Very nice observation.
I've often described this song as a mix between "The Great Gig In The Sky" and "Moby Dick"
Indeed. Music speaks to us across all bands of the spectrum.
As they say....another level!!
It’s the top shelf
J’ai vu Max et son orchestre en 1971 à Metz au caveau des trinitaires. La classe! Il est venu me parler à la mi-temps. J’étais sidéré de la qualité des orchestres de jazz américains. Je n’oublierais jamais.
Genuinely exciting music!
What a masterpiece.
I ain't seen no drumming like that ever.
Now I see where Death Metal actually came from
It isn't just metal though either! Jazz has had such an incredibly widespread influence on modern music, everything from contemporary pop music, to breakcore, to avant garde noise stuff takes massive influence from jazz. Even if the artists making the music don't realize were those influences came from.
Death metal 😑🙄 you dont know good music
Played now, that would be considered avant garde. It's incredibly ambitious, given the time, and it would be now.
...in the timbre and rhythm a strong imprint of truth
Music can take you to far away places.
What a beautiful song
Max was so much more precise playing the small kit with trad grip.
Wow, UA-cam is a treasure. Jazz music forever. Love the style. As always Max Roach is classy. As is the whole band.
Powerful. Mighty
Man these cats were playing in 2064
still love his drumming and his attitude!!
Max going crazy we see a lady's teeth. great camera work...
Hysterical! I hope everyone was singing along or even tried to hum the tune😖
A karaoke go-to of mine
Wow the buzzing on the 12 tom, from the snare. I hate that. And it is very hard to get rid of it. But Max is amazing, as always!
Abbie was an remarkably resourceful singer. I can easily imagine that this gift was nurtured by one of the world's greatest drummers. Thanks for posting.
In another video, someone compared Buddy Rich to Star Wars, and Jo Jones to Citizen Kane, watching this video I can only say that Max Roach is 2001: Space Odyssey
First time hearing this and WOW! Man sounds like a metronome from another dimension.
Thankds for Posting this. Amazing.
se non erro, questa Cantante era la😍 MOGLIE 😍 di 👑🏆 MAX 🏆👑 ...., by mladic .....
I like the fact that the female singer screams and yells. She does so combined with Max's drumming but does so in such an artistic fashion. Whats with the Buddy Rich clip at the end?
Yeah, very artistic. Woo hoo!
Free expression
@@jackxavier3915 Representative of a movement in the 1960s called "Free Jazz".
Legend.
The tune here is actually Tears for Johannesburg
thank you!!! you just saved my life
I was confused since the original song is just vocals and drums.
darwin this is good
Happy 100th birthday Max❤
Max for President !!!
l'indipenenza tra mani di MAX è UNICA !!! 👑👑👑👑🏆🏆🏆🏆
Original Dire Straits drummer Pick Withers brought me here!!!
in this historical context of those days of segreggation, we can see how seriously and creatively advanced was this american art form despite the mainstream ingnorance..
That was powerful. And unfortunately so apt for the times in which we are living.
❤ Go Max
Som fino...
Be nice to see max drumming away at the end instead of this woman's open gob :-o
Go head Max!!!!!!!
Merci
Timeless
DAT hithat o.o
Coukikou !!!
THUMBS UP !
I wonder if a 13 o'er a 14 as exposited in Mr Roach's set-up really cuts down on "hi hat lock" or hihat choke where the pedal note is rendered inaudible due to a plunger-like effect of those old school hihats? ( Something I've never met anyone whose experienced before but I have seen the holes drilled on a bottom hat occasionally)
There is a video of this band playing this music where the set is each individual band member in a jail cell. Anyone ever seen it or know where I can find it? Great performance as is this one but the visual put it over the top
Yes, you can find this on You tube. Recorded on January 15, 1964 in Baden Baden, named Complete German concert. Regards from Slovenia!
The black scream shouting against the barbarism of racism. Impressive presentation. Clapping
You're being sarcastic , right?
You're being sarcastic , right?
Who's in control here?
Fuck u 2 administrator!
@@richardbutler4528 Of course not, it's real. Connect man
Ele era um às da bateria ....
So good! Who is that on bass, tho?
Aprendiendo de lo bueno
who is vocals?? please!!!
Abbey Lincoln
Ok... either he's playing both the snare and the tom with one hand, or he's got snare's attached to his tom. Any drummers here? What's going on there?
No, he is playing one at the time.
Notice that his tom is tuned higher than the snare. That's why you had that feeling
Gustavo Estevam what ? Si you mean that sound like a snare is really the high Tom tuned higher ?
@@santiagojosecaballerocalab3750 yes. That is right. It is the tom tom tuned very high.
Marcus Bendon Sympathetic snare buzz. The tom is activating the snares on the snare drum. All drum kits do this to some degree. Modern recording techniques might subdue it but that’s the actual sound. Same thing happens when the bass player plays just about anything.
Gustavo Estevam I just can’t believe that and I never thought about doing that this is a creative genius
Max’s response/homage to Take Five?
clifford jordan on the tenor sax
Traditional grip trip.
🙂🌸💛
Anyone got the lyrics to this? 🤔
8:10
Goth / rock music innovators.
Masterpiece
This is a tool song....think about it....5/4....haunting repetition .....droning bass...lol. Awesome. Influences are ageless.
dude you're so right on about that. I couldn't agree more
@@KickflipGnasty yup. Once it clicks it is so obvious..yet so awesome..lol.
na fuck tool ,why cant these black artists have their own stuff without yall comparing them to tool and pink floyd etc ...white artists that already got their shine!
@@samtotheg What does skin colour have to do with anything? 🙄
@@james5637 everything white boy ,its always black music artist being compared to white artists who are palatable to white people in the comments, I peep game!
Yoko Ono at the end?
is this on a record?
2:26 what
Mr High Hat.
2020, not much has changed
Wait. Where’s the one ?
She sounds like a theremin who is the singer?
Man what a hecktic scene.
Hear some strong joe morello influence on those 5/4 grooves and the solo at the beginning. Couldn't blame him though
I heard that
Max was doing it years before Joe actually
@@bugbugbugbugbugbug yeah max wasnt influenced by joe at all!
exactly backwards
And people say death metal is weird...
Where can I find more amazing stuff like this?
@@musicircle thank you so much
Yoko Ono was like 👀
3/4 ?
5/4
Who the hell is on bass and piano??lol
I believe the piano: Coleridge Perkinson. Bass : Eddie Khan. Sax : Clifford Jordan.
