Don Alias

From Free net encyclopedia

Don Alias (b. December 25, 1939 New York City; d. March 29, 2006 New York City) was a jazz percussionist.

Alias performed on dozens—perhaps hundreds—of recordings, and was perhaps best known for his associations with Miles Davis and David Sanborn, though he also perfomed or recorded with Weather Report, Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock, The Brecker Brothers, Jaco Pastorius and many others.

Though Alias was a capable drum kit performer, he was better known for his skill at congas and other hand drums.
