Interview: Louis Hayes (Part 2)
The more you listen to recordings by the Horace Silver Quintet in the 1950s, the more you realize that the group had two drummers: Silver's funky, rhythmic left hand on piano and Louis Hayes' sticks.

Interview: Louis Hayes (Part 1)
During the hard bop era of the 1950s and early 1960s, the Horace Silver Quintet was the most sublime expression of the movement.

Abstract Logix's Souvik Dutta: From Living Room to Center of the Universe
