SAXOPHONIST CHARLES LLOYD ON HIS SOMETIME BAND MATE, MASTER TABLA DRUMMER AND 1999 NEA NATIONAL HERITAGE FELLOW, ZAKIR HUSSAIN. Lloyd: And we get together and we play. We have a group, Sangam. Dancing on One Foot up Lloyd: I knew of Zakir Hussain. And what I heard was the deep blues, like I heard a source music comin' outta him.  He was beatin' those beats out with such soulfulness that it took me back to Howlin’ Wolf so it was like another level of experiencing those blues. And so I, I just always loved him. And still do.
