Desi Jones |
I just heard from a friend that Desi Jones the outstanding drummer has passed on. I am still trying to make contact with his number and hoping that someone will answer. If you have any information please WhatsApp me at 876 816-5261.
Desi and I were students at UTech during the 1979s and were involved in entertainment on and off campus. He played the congo drums while I was the leader of the CAST Singers.
He then started playing with various groups such as Chalice, Sonny Bradshaw Big Band and other bands.
Let's wish his wife and family all the best. Add your comments to this blog so his family and friends can see your comments.
