@freein2339 I lol'd when i saw the thank you to "the greatest man on the planet- L. Ron Hubbard" haha this guy was way out there but this album is just.... tony williams is an animal on the drums, bill connnors absolutely shreds throughout, and of course Mr. Clarke tying it all together with the funky dopeness. ..this is just a great album packed with big name talent.
@freein2339 Yeah, there were a couple great jazz drummers (Elvin Jones comes to mind) who could not master a good back-beat. Tony was one of the best. Thanks for the post.
@triplettam Elvin Jones comes to my mind too. I'm a drummer and I loved him no end. But his excursions into back beat territory (especially with Santana) just didn't . . .you know what I mean. I will not speak bad of one the greatest drummers of all time, but all styles require training. Tony had it all.
From a writing, composition and all star band perspective I think your right. I've often said the same thing. School Days from a different perspective would be the other.
It has nothing to do with YouTube: its the jackass bastard lawyers at the record companies that make it so difficult: they have screwed so many people, from musicians to writers and now all they want to do is protect what they think is their bloody property. Music that was most likely stolen in by them in the first place!
Damn! That's Wack!!!!!! This ain't Youtube A Couple Of Years Ago. Now They Police Everything. You Can See Anything From Murder To Damn Near Teen Porn, But You Can't Put A Classic Album or Any Rare Things On No More. I Think Thats Bass Ackwards.

Stanley's best album in my opinion. Saw him twice in the 80s, he'd hit some notes that would just penetrate.
