  | R.I.P Johnny Griffin Saxophonist Johnny Griffin, 80, Dies - Breaking News From New Jersey - NJ.com He was a fantastic player. I love the quote at the end about why he played so fast "I got so excited when I played and I still do," he once said. "I want to eat up the music like a child eating candy."

| Re: R.I.P Johnny Griffin Time for some reflective tough tenor listening and a good serve of the Gil Evans Big Band. Always sad to loose such talent. Always grateful they have been recorded. Let them not be lost.

| Re: R.I.P Johnny Griffin I think i saw Hiram Bullock at the Iridium with Randy Brecker and have some Joe Beck albums on the pile here to be converted to cd. They will all be greatly missed.
