From 1950 to 1953, Payne played with Erskine Hawkins' big band, and led his own band for two years, but in late 1954 he made his most significant move, joining Basie's band for more than ten years of constant touring and recording.
He left Basie in 1965, leading his own trio and touring with Illinois Jacquet in 1976. He was Frank Sinatra's personal drummer for all of the singer's appearances with the Count Basie Orchestra in 1965 and 1966, and he later rejoined Basie as the regular drummer (1973–1974). Most of the rest of his career, however, was spent in the Harry James band, which he joined in 1966, and with which he was working when he died of pneumonia at the age of 52. When he was dying in the hospital, Harry James paid all of his medical bills and subsequent funeral costs.
Sonny Payne w/Harry James Sept 1970 "Apples" drum solo
When Buddy Rich left the Harry James Band in 1966, Harry James used several other drummers to try and fill the drum chair.
Some of the drummers were Louis Bellson, Paul Humphrey, Sol Gubin, Charlie Persip and Tony DeNicola.
In December of 1966, Harry scored a big plus, when he hired Sonny Payne to be the band drummer.
Sonny Payne was the final piece in Harry's decade long quest of getting a Basie-feel to his already swinging band.
Everything Sonny Payne touched rocked hard.
Sonny went in and out of the Harry James Orchestra from Dec 1966-Dec 1978.
He died January 29, 1979 days before he was scheduled to join Harry for an Eastern tour. Harry James personally paid Payne's medical bills and funeral costs.
Sonny Payne was known for his showmanship, especially his stick throwing.

5 Drum Licks You Can Steal From The Jazz Greats
People are always comparing Greyson Nekrutman to legendary Big Band drummers. And it makes sense because these are the drummers he’s studied for years.
Greyson has tastefully borrowed licks from drummers like Buddy Rich, Louie Bellson, Sonny Payne, and more to develop his own style. There's SO much you can learn by studying the legends of Big Band Drumming -- an era where drummers stole the show.
While Greyson has taken care to build on the concepts he’s borrowed from the legends, in this video, he talks about his major influences and who inspires him while he develops his own sound.
