His studio and live credits read like a who's who of jazz -- Miles Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell are just some of the major artists with whom he played. His group Taylor's Wailers provided a training ground for up-and-coming players in a Hard Bop setting similar to the one pursued by fellow drummer Art Blakey. Taylor's sound was crisp and dynamic, pushing the limits of just how hard a musician could swing, and always adding the perfect snare roll or crack. Whether driving one of his own blistering sessions or contributing to classics such as John Coltrane's <I>Giant Steps</I>, Taylor always propelled groups to new musical heights. - Jessy TerryHard Bopen720Sun, 29 Nov 2009 11:31:02 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.10392&rws=%2Farthur-taylor%2Fmusic-videos.rss A subtle time-keeper or a boisterous swinger, depending on the requirements of the session, Taylor was one of the finest jazz drummers.
