Cindy Blackman Group live in Munich, April 6 2009 Part 1

[eaglerock999]

Just found out she is engaged to Carlos Santana, who I admire a lot,didn't really know of her ,watched several videos of her playing. I don't like Jazz at all, but I gave her a shot,she seems too loud and drowns out the band on all the vids I watched.

Jazz lovers seem to like her.....but I find her playing and all Jazz irritating...... its all over the place.sorry...

Savage playing...........

wow protocosmos tony williams cool

Cindy Blackman is the only true heir to the Tony Williams throne; she alone has the same untamed raw energy & chops as Tony. Most importantly, she is not from the modern Berklee 'machine' school of playing. Go Cindy!

@jonsilence I think Jojo Mayer and Chris Dave are doing a good job being heir of Tony Williams

Listened to a radio concert yesterday (from Quasimodo/Berlin June 3/09) This is a piece by the Tony Williams new lifetime from 1975 "Snake oil" from "Believe it " album. I think, Tony Willians (RIP) was the main influence (?) on Cindy (similar drumming approach/style). She plays much better, than all the male drummers, I´ve been working with.She will have no problems in future to make a living from playing the drums..Her 3 collegues play well here, either.
