Kenny Clarke (January 2, 1914–January 26, 1985), born Kenneth Spearman Clarke, nicknamed "Klook" and later known as Liaqat Ali Salaam, was a jazzdrummer and bandleader. He was a major innovator of the bebop style of drumming. As the house drummer at Minton's Playhouse in the early 1940s, he participated in the after hours jams that led to the birth of Be-Bop, which in turn led to modern jazz. While in New York, he played with the major innovators of the emerging bop style, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Curly Russell and others, as well as musicians of the prior generation, including Sidney Bechet. He spent his later life in Paris.
Early career
Clarke was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1914. Coming from a musical family, he studied multiple instruments, including vibes and trombone, as well as music theory and composition, while still in high school. As a teenager, Clarke played in the bands of Leroy Bradley and Roy Eldridge. He toured around the Midwest for several years with the Jeter-Pillars band, which also featured bassistJimmy Blanton and guitaristCharlie Christian. By 1935, Clarke was more frequently in New York, where he eventually moved. He worked in groups led by Edgar Hayes and Lonnie Smith, and began developing the rhythmic concepts that would later define his contribution to the music.

KENNY CLARKE & CHARLIE CHRISTIAN (From swing to bop) Jazz History #46
Kenny Clarke and Charlie Christian were on the forefront of the evolution of bebop and each had an outsized impact on the development and usage of their instrument. Clarke paved the way for modern drummers by moving the primary timekeeping role to the ride cymbal and using the drums for accents, a signature move that earned him the nickname of Klook Mop.
Charlie Christian's single-note lines, made possible by the use of an amplified electric guitar, foreshadowed the chromatic language of bebop, though he wouldn't live to see the culmination. As an early adopter and innovator of the instrument that would come to dominate rock music, he earned a place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
