Details
Michael 'Spike' Wells (born on 16 January 1946 in Tunbridge Wells, Kent) is an English jazz drummer and priest. He was a chorister at Canterbury Cathedral Choir School, then became interested in jazz after coming across a recording by Dizzy Gillespie, which he found 'very exciting'. He took up drums in his early teens: 'I suppose the thing that really knocked me out about jazz was the rhythm, so I thought if I'm going to be in a jazz band I want to be the drummer.' He later had lessons from former Miles Davis drummer Philly Joe Jones, who lived in London in 1967 9, and he was also very influenced by another of Davis's drummers, Tony Williams. He read Greats at Oxford, where he put together a quartet with tenor player Pat Crumly and pianist Brian Priestley which played with visitors including saxophonists Bobby Wellins, Tony Coe and Joe Harriott, and blues singer Jimmy Witherspoon.
