Ed Thigpen: Master of Time, Rhythm and Taste
(Don McGlynn, USA/Denmark, 2009, Beta-SP, 91 min) Apart from being an incredible musician with a rare feel for music, the drummer Ed Thigpen, who passed away this year, was also a human being with a fascinating personal history. After growing up in Saint Louis and Los Angeles, he worked with the likes of Dinah Washington and Bud Powell at an early age. Later, he spent many years living in Copenhagen. He was a musician, but also a teacher and a family man of faith, who constantly sought out new means of expression. In this personal, multifaceted portrait film, the Copenhagen-based American director Don McGlynn tells the story of Thigpen, whose work (on no less than 900 albums) has included collaborations with Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, Herbie Hancock and Ella Fitzgerald, but who has also enriched the jazz world with his own two bands, "Ed Thigpen Trio" and "Ed Thigpen Scantet."
