Billy & Tony

Eigentlich wollte ich ja herausfinden, welches Delaygerät auf der Cobham Scheibe „A funky Thide of Sings“ verwendet wurde, bekam anstelle einer Antwort den Hinweis, dass Billy Cobham und Tony Williams ein knapp zwanzigminütiges Duett in Japan spielten, damals am 27.07.1978.
Ist ja auch ’ne Art von Echo! (Das ebenfalls in die Liste der Doppeltrommler gehört.)

>>Recently I went to Japan and played with Tony Williams at a concert. The two of us. together. Tony never worked with another drummer before. He had worked with Lenny White once, but felt very uncomfortable working with me because he didn’t know what to expect. But it worked out well. We’re going to record an album together, and do another concert. He’ll be a guest at some of my concerts and vice versa. We’ll have some things worked out that we can play together. We’ll be listening to each other, which is important. When two drummers are onstage, more often than not they try to blow each other off the stage, which is wrong. It can be musical if it’s done properly.<<
