Not only did you post in the wrong place, Haynes is very much among us.

I hate to help out here, but this would be easy to find out at a Roy Haynes website...

No problemo, rightguy41:

Roy plays a Slingerland kit w/Remo heads. Before permormance, he treats his heads by rubbing them with large, molded clumps of spam. I asked him once how he got that snap crackle and he divulged his secret!

Of course, it's not WHAT he plays, but HOW he plays that counts.

Actually, I'd like to know where he got that cool cowboy hat he wears.
