#777John Arnold III ‘Johnny’ Griffin
24.04.1928, ЧикагоТенор-саксофонист. Один из темпераментных представителей хард-бопа. Критики назвали его "самым быстрым саксофонистом мира", а сам он признался: "...меня всегда злит, что приходится делать паузы, чтобы взять воздух".
Родился в музыкальной семье, играл на фортепиано, в школе освоил кларнет, гобой, альт- и тенор-саксофоны (в частности, учился у Джина Аммонса). В 1945 году вошел в оркестр Лайонела Хэмптона, в последующие годы играл с Бадом Пауэллом, Джо Джонсом, Арнеттом Коббом, Артом Блэйки (1957). Стал известен как участник квартета Телониуса Монка в нью-йоркском клубе Five Spot (1958–59). В 1960–62 сотрудничал с Уэсом Монтгомери, Кларком Тэрри, Эдди Локью Дэвисом. С 1962 года жил в Европе (сначала в Париже, потом в Амстердаме), играл в оркестрах Кенни Кларка — Фрэнси Боланда, Петера Хербольцхаймера, выступал в клубах. Вернулся в США в 1978 году, в 1979 играл с Декстером Гордоном в концертном зале Карнеги-холл, с 1980 вновь живет в Париже. В 2001 выступал в Москве в Le Club.Фейертаг В.Б. Джаз. XX век.
