\nBelow this post is a list of musicians and others who made a mark in jazz or blues, and who died in 2014, as forwarded by radio host George Klein<\/a>.
\nI\u2019ve posted at length on some of these deaths (Roy Campbell, Amiri Baraka<\/a>,\u00a0Fred Ho<\/a><\/strong>).
\nThe one that hit me hardest was Charlie Haden<\/strong>. As I wrote here<\/a>:<\/p>\n

In conversation as on the bandstand, where he played his bass with graceful authority and achieved great renown, Charlie Haden <\/strong>was both soft-spoken and outspoken. In his life and his music, he was exceedingly gentle, drawn to simple beauty yet also at home within wild complexity and unafraid of controversial ideas and hard truths.
\nHaden was a towering figure of American music. His influence and appeal reached into all quarters of jazz, and well beyond that genre. His ability to innovate helped sparked at least one musical revolution, as a member of the Ornette Coleman Quartet. His unerring sense of time and love of melody anchored and focused many distinguished bands, some of which he led. His radiant humanity and stalwart voice for social justice was both rare and powerful in any field.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Those who doubt that jazz still has a community, one that shares a singular bond and a common purpose, don\u2019t grasp the essence of Haden\u2019s career and probably never attended a memorial for a fallen jazz hero.
\nI\u2019ll be there\u2014and you should be too\u2014when musicians, other colleagues and fans gather in Haden\u2019s honor in Manhattan for a memorial organized by his widow, singer Ruth Cameron Haden<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
