Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Legendary Jazz Drummer Joe Farnsworth .. He opened up during this odd time on earth with a pandemic and social unrest rampant to talk about his latest 2020 CD Time to Swing with Wynton Marsalis, Kenny Barron and Peter Washington .. This musician from South Hadley, Massachusetts has been revered for years for his blazing speed, precision, musical, and melodic playing. He grew up in a musical family and studied with Alan Dawson and Arthur Taylor. From there, it was on to New York City and eventually recording over 100 CD’s as leader and side-man with the likes of Pharaoh Sanders, Horace Silver, Harold Mabern, McCoy Tyner, Cedar Walton, Diana Krall, Benny Golson, George Coleman, Johnny Griffin, Lou Donaldson, Benny Green, Barry Harris and Curtis Fuller .. his story is amazing.
