DONALD BYRD RIP
It seems like yesterday… and now they are both gone.
While shooting these images of Donald Byrd and Guru for Jazzmatazz (Vol 1) Donald Byrd said to me that I was documenting something very special indeed… he went on to say that back in his day there was a transitional shift in music he referred to as Be-Bop, and that the fusion of Hip-Hop and Jazz reminded him of that important transition.
Donald’s words inspired me to run and buy a super 8 film camera and document this fusion of Hip-Hop and Jazz on motion film. The resulting footage marked my entrance into film making.
Thank you Donald, Rest in Peace.
