RIP Hank Crawford and Lukas Foss

I was saddened to learn that David "Fathead" Newman's old foil, Hank Crawford, has also died, just a few days after Newman's passing. Bruce Weber has the NYT Obit, and here's Doug Ramsey (Rifftides). 

See also Dave Douglas (Greenleaf), who links Hank Crawford with another departed American original, Lukas Foss. And for a movingly detailed reminiscence of that iconoclastic composer, you must read Matthew Guerrieri's tribute to his former teacher.
