High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Anthony John "Tony" Crombie (27 August 1925 - 18 October 1999) was an English jazz drummer, pianist, bandleader and composer. He was regarded as one of the finest jazz drummers and bandleaders, and occasional but very capable pianist and vibraphonist, to emerge in Britain, and as an energising influence on the British jazz scene across six decades.Born in London, England, he took up drums in his teens. He began to work regularly in London clubs, and joined vibes player Carlo Krahmer's band in 1943, before forming his own band for an Irish tour in 1947. In the following year he was part of a trio which accompanied Duke Ellington on the first official post-war tour of Britain by an American jazz artist. In December 1948, he helped start the short-lived Club Eleven in London, which became a crucial focal point for the emerging bebop scene, and worked closely with Ronnie Scott, Johnny Dankworth and others, as well as forming his own septet at the club. He was the drummer in the Victor Feldman Trio in 1954-5, prior to Feldman's move to the US.
