Es gab selten eine Familie in der Jazzmusik, die einen so großen Einfluss auf die Musik und auf den Jazz nahm wie die Heath Brothers – Bassist Percy Heath , Tenorsaxophonist Jimmy Heath und Schlagzeuger Albert “Tootie” Heath . In den drei Heathbrüdern steckt nicht nur die Jazzgeschichte drin, sie sind Jazzgeschichte. Zusammen mit den drei Jones Brothers, bestehend aus Pianist Hank Jones, Trompeter Thad Jones und Schlagzeuger Elvin Jones, haben es Percy, Jimmy und Albert als einzige Familie geschafft über ein Half a century by the most successful family of jazz music to be, and often appeared to be another. It is the story of a family full of jazz and music history.

The following three articles deal with this question in three different profiles of musicians will be shown who they were, the three brothers, of which there are sadly only two remain, because the bassist Percy Heath died in 2005 of complications from cancer.
