Biography
American jazz drummer, born January 18, 1943 in Richmond, Virginia, USA. Died May 28, 2025.
A member of Miles Davis’ band for 13 years (1972-1985), he was one of the few people to have contact with Davis during his retirement from 1975–1981. After Foster left Miles Davis in 1985, he worked independently, sometimes as leader, sometimes as sideman.
