Biography by Scott Yanow
A
fiery drummer and a masterful accompanist, Philly Joe Jones came to
fame as a key member with the first classic Miles Davis Quintet. After
serving in the Army, he moved to New York in 1947, became the house
drummer at Cafe Society and played with a who's who of bop (including
Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Fats Navarro). He worked regularly
with Ben Webster, Joe Morris, Tiny Grimes, Lionel Hampton, and Tadd
Dameron (1953). Jones was with Miles Davis during 1955-1958, including
the quintet years (1955-1956) with John Coltrane, Red Garland, and Paul
Chambers and the beginnings of the super sextet that also included
Cannonball Adderley (recording the classic Milestones album). In 1958,
he started leading his own groups, recording for Riverside (1958-1959)
and Atlantic (1960). Jones lived in London and Paris during 1967-1972
(performing and recording with some avant-garde players, including
Archie Shepp). He eventually returned to Philadelphia, where he led a
fusion group, Le Grand Prix, toured with Bill Evans during 1976,
recorded for Galaxy in 1977 and 1979, and worked with Red Garland.
Starting in 1981, he led the group Dameronia, which revived Tadd
Dameron's music. But in reality, everything that Philly Joe Jones did
after Miles Davis was anticlimactic.
