   About Wallace Roney
Grammy Award Winner

Hometown: Philadelphia, PA

Here's what the publicist says:
Wallace Roney earned the admiration and respect of his colleagues and his elders since age 16. He has been an integral part of the band with Tony Williams, Ornette Coleman, Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, Philly Joe Jones, Walter Davis Jr., Herbie Hancock, Jay McShann, David Murray, McCoy Tyner, Sonny Rollins, Curtis Fuller, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Dizzy Gillespie to name a few. He was one of the few musicians in his generation who learned and perfected his craft directly from alliances with Jazz Masters. But his most important and meaningful relationship was with Miles Davis.

Wallace was mentored by Miles Davis after Miles heard him in 1983 at his birthday gala performance in Carnegie Hall. Their association peaked when Miles chose Wallace to share the stage at his historic performance in Montreux in 1991. After Davis died, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams and Roney banded together and toured the world in tribute.


My goal is to make the best music I can. I enjoy, listen and can play ALL types of music I filter my expression through the jazz experience.

YAST S.O.L.O. - "El Reinicio"





May 25 2008 2:53 PM

BENDICIONES,
YA HA LLEGADO LO ALTAMENTE ESPERADO DURANTE TANTO TIEMPO…
HIP-HOP LIBERTARIO SIN CONCESIÓN.
Mis disculpas, dejo un poco de publi para la promo del disco hip-hop del año. ASOCIACIÓN PANTERAS NEGRAS presenta “EL REINICIO” pasad a echarle un oído al corte 16:

GRITEN; ¡NEGRATAS INVADEN¡

Debemos señalar que Yast se aleja de las letras nihilistas yegocéntricas del yo, el rap colaboracionista con la violencia de unsistema injusto en el que los raperos son tolerados en la mediada enque hablan de consolas, y cosas superficiales, hechos aislados yfragmentados que menciona los Mc de moda vinculados a la equidistanciasocial de los artistas colonizados de los que habla Edgar Said , sinembargo El reinicio pierde este carácter colaboracionista y seorganiza en un pensamiento político.

Hey Wallace,

It's good to see that you grew up to be the giant I knew you would become. Keep smokin' em, my brother.

Hopefully, I'll get to share musical space with you once again, before too long.

Stay Peaceful.
