    I played bass on Jimmy Smith’s last Quartet tour of Europe with Phil Upchurch on Guitar and Jimmy June Bug Jackson on Drums. That was about 20 years ago and it was a lot of fun!

      The funny thing about listening to a wide range of music is that your musical world just gets bigger and bigger. Example: I found out about Jimmy Smith years ago through the Beastie Boys. I can't remember exactly what it was they said or referenced, but it led me into Groove Holmes and Jimmy Smith and from them into Jimmy McGriff and from him on and on. It's a mistake to limit what you listen to. Just last night my son was playing some They Might Be Giants stuff for me that I'd never heard before. Bigger and bigger world.

    Mr. Jones if you’re reading this, I had the good fortune of seeing you with the Davis band in Fukuoka Japan the summer of 1987. I’d only seen you once prior, on the Sting video of Let them free. I was blown away!!!!!!!!

    I loved Miles’ late career music - especially You’re Under Arrest and Decoy - on which Darryl played - his band was always tight, the arrangements fresh, and the material challenging.

    @Danielsobotta.. Yes he was, they did the Sting album Dream of the Blue Turtles with friend of mine Omar Hakim on drums, Darryl (bass), Branford Marsalis (sax, etc.) & Kenny Kirkland (keyboards)..I saw Kenny Kirkland many years ago at the Panasonic Jazz Festival in NYC playing for Kenny Garrett with Jeff "Tain" Watts on drums of which whom I met. Sadly not long after that show Kenny Kirkland passed away in his hotel room. R.I.P Mr. Kirkland..you will always be missed.

      Because of his curiosity and openness, the interviewer has brought a lot of insight to those who don’t know much about the subject but are also curious and open to learn it from Mr. jones himself. (One could also pose the thought that Mr. Jones found someone to ask the question so he could elaborate on the personal story that is interesting for any listener.) So many musicians ignore the reason why one makes music. They often focus their attention on training and the technical aspects of their craft. When one has a need to express themselves musically more than anything else in the world then deep communication between humans is possible. That’s what Miles Davis was listening for in Mr. Jones’s Bb Blues - and everything anybody else ever played.
