	Pete La Roca - Verve Records
		Pete La Roca's decision to leave music in 1968 and become an attorney (under his original name of Pete Sims) cut short a productive career.
		La Roca led his own group (1961-1962), was the house drummer at the Jazz Workshop in Boston (1963-1964), and worked with Art Farmer (1964-1965), Freddie Hubbard, Mose Allison, Charles Lloyd (1966), Paul Bley, and Steve Kuhn, among others.
		La Roca started playing jazz again in 1979.

		They are joined in by veteran, Eddie Henderson on trumpet with a squad of firmly entrenched neoboppers, David Weiss on trumpet, Craig Handy on tenor saxophone and Dwayne Burno on bass.
		Handy, who is excellent throughout this set, comes out swinging broad shouldered ala Sonny Rollins interjecting strong statements that grab hold of the listener in what is easily his best solo in the set.
		Handy and Weiss are excellent and continue to solo with ardor and poise showing a maturity well beyond their years.

		For drummer Pete "LaRoca" Sims, time is a fluid thing, existing on many levels, both philosophical and musical.
		When it comes to swing, Pete Sims is one of the all-time greats, a drummer whose incandescent beat and fiery rhythmic rejoinders pushed the envelope of collective interplay to the limit on many of the most cherished Blue Note releases of the late '50s and early '60s.
		The verities of his dynamic interplay with the current edition of SWINGTIME (Jimmy Owens, trumpet, flugelhorn; Ricky Ford, tenor saxophone; Dave Liebman or Lance Bryant, soprano saxophone; George Cables piano; Santi Debriano, bass), are as fresh and resonant in 1997 as they were with Sonny Rollins in 1957.

		In the 1950's, he was the pianist of choice on hundreds of sessions for various labels, including Prestige, and as time has passed, he has become an adventurous leader who has written more than a handful of standards.
		The band he is leading includes the tenor saxophonists Chico Freeman and Ricky Ford, with the great bassist Reggie Workman and the drummer-turned-lawyer Pete La Roca.
		Sets are to be at 10, 11:45 and 1:30 on Friday and Saturday and at 10 and midnight on Sunday; there is a $15 music charge and a $6 minimum.

	Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The final three cuts are from a 1957 session with Clifford Jordan (tenor), Kenny Burrell (guitar), Pete La Roca (drums) and Paul Chambers again.
		Clifford Jordan's singular tone is a similarly fine addition to the unit, and Pete La Roca would have been the first call drummer at any label that couldn't offer Art Blakey.
		I won't even get started on Paul Chambers because this is a review, not a book, but he's everything you would expect here, and if you don't know what to expect, go out immediately and buy everything you see with his name on it.

		Lloyd first encountered Eric Harland at a jam session in New York's Blue Note club in September 2001 recognizing immediately that he was hearing one of the great drummers.
		Within a year Harland was playing with the saxophonist - the latest in a long line of superb Lloyd group drummers that, in addition to Higgins, has included Roy Haynes, Tony Williams, Pete La Roca, Paul Motian, Jack DeJohnette, Jon Christensen and Billy Hart.
		Harland, who turns 30 in 2006, was first inspired to play jazz by the example of Elvin Jones on Coltrane's "A Love Supreme." He has since played with McCoy Tyner, Pharoah Sanders and Ravi Coltrane, with Joshua Redman, Betty Carter, Joe Henderson, Wynton Marsalis and many others.

		Bruce Williams, who now leads four bands of his own, served a broad-ranging apprenticeship with some of the most vital jazz artists of the day from traditional to hip-hop to the avant-garde before joining the WSQ in 2001.
		He has done stints with drummers Cecil Brooks III and Pete "La Roca" Sims, Lionel Hampton Orchestra, the Russell Gunn, Hip Hop Jazz Sextet, Winard Harper, organist Jimmy McGriff, vocalist Jimmy Scott, pianist Stanley Cowell, Frank Foster's Loud Minority and Swing Plus Big Bands, and many other outfits.
		His best opportunity to catch the attention of the WSQ veterans has come in his seven years with Oliver Lake Big Band Ensemble.

	TONY SCOTT-GOLDEN MOMENTS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		AMG REVIEW: Tony Scott was one of the major jazz clarinetists of the 1950s, but his decision to become a world traveler in 1960 has resulted in him becoming rather obscure.
		The bop-oriented improvisations hold one's interest and make one wish that Scott had stayed in New York throughout the '60s; he had much more to say.
		Color variations on cover are due to scan and not the cover which is uniform.

		Personnel: George Russell (piano); Sheila Jordan (vocals); Don Ellis (trumpet); Garnett Brown (trombone); Steve Swallow (acoustic bass); Pete La Roca (drums); Paul Plummer.
		The musicians take this standard where it has never gone before, stretching the song out and warping it, leading it down bluesy alleys and up into innovative skyscrapers, as Jordan`s sensuous voice draws from gospel, blues, and country.
		Throughout the album, Steve Swallow and Pete LaRoca provide the anchor of a powerful rhythm section while soaring along with the music.

		Joe Henderson's 1963 debut as a leader bears the formidable imprint of his mentor, trumpeter Kenny Dorham.
		Warren remains on hand for Page One, but McCoy Tyner and Pete La Roca replace Hancock and Williams, respectively.
		Page One put Joe Henderson on the map as a highly promising composer, not to mention one of the most original young tenor players of the era.

		Henderson (ts); Kenny Dorham (t); McCoy Tyner (p); Butch Warren (b); Pete La Roca (d).
		Henderson had not long since arrived in New York after being discharged from the army, and this six-theme set is very much the work of a new star on the scene.
		Tyner, Warren and La Roca are a rhythm section who seldom played together but they do very well here, as does the erratic Dorham.

	Chuck Israels - Jazz Drummers, from a Bass Player/Composer's Point of View
		How is it that the sound of the cymbal "ride" patterns of great jazz drummers is so personal that it can be identified by an experienced listener in a matter of a few measures of listening?
		What is it that identifies so clearly the playing of Kenny Clarke, Roy Haynes, Max Roach, Art Blakey, Philly Joe Jones, Pete La Roca, Larry Bunker, Donald Bailey, Bill Goodwin, Mel Lewis, Billy Higgins and other great jazz drummers with identifiable personal styles?
		It has been recommended in the pages of the Jazz Educator's Journal, that student drummers ought to play strong accents on both the high hat and on the ride cymbal on the 2nd and 4th beats of every measure.

		Much like the work of Charles Mingus, Little's compositions offer consistent changes in tempo, meter, and mood.
		With trumpeter Booker Little are tenor saxophonist George Coleman, trombonist Julian Priester, pianist Don Freedman, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Pete La Roca.
		The seven tunes presented at this session show the trumpeter's warm tone and allow for an articulation that is somewhat loose and removed from any classical teachings.

		in 1965, drummer Pete La Roca was 27, and making his way on the New York jazz scene.
		Within a few years, he quit music to pursue a career as a lawyer, a fact bemoaned by anyone who ever heard this album, a gem which may be more widely appreciated this time around.
		The great tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson put in some inspired work, but so too did pianist Steve Kuhn, bassist Steve Swallow and La Roca.

		The title PAGE ONE is fitting for this disc as it marks the beginning of the first chapter in the long career of tenor man Joe Henderson.
		And what a beginning it is; no less than Kenny Dorham, McCoy Tyner, Butch Warren, and Pete La Roca join the saxophonist for a stunning set that includes "Blue Bossa" and "Recorda Me," two works that would be forever associated with Henderson.
		Both are bossa novas that offer a hip alternative to the easy-listening Brazilian trend that would become popular with the masses.

		I discovered some fascinating information concerning Pete LaRoca (Sims) on Drummerworld tonight.
		He played drums with Sonny Rollins (1957-early 1959) and had associations with Jackie McLean, Slide Hampton, the John Coltrane Quartet (where he was the original drummer in 1960) and Marian McPartland.
