“We've had some major influence on the music scene. I've had some spectacular players throughout the years. Historic players. Vernell Fournier, Israel Crosby. Vernell Fournier was perhaps the most imitated drummer in the world. I had Ray Crawford, the giant of the guitar who used to get percussive effects on the frets of his guitar, and he was widely imitated. The trio was not only imitated for its content but for its individualism.”

– Ahmad Jamal
