Bio / info
Milford Graves (born August 20, 1941 in Queens, New York, died February 12, 2021 in Queens, New York) was an American jazz drummer and percussionist, most noteworthy for his early avant-garde contributions in the early 60s with Paul Bley and the New York Art Quartet alongside John Tchicai, Roswell Rudd, and Reggie Workman. He was considered to be a free jazz pioneer, liberating the percussion from its timekeeping role.
