Jazz legends Jimmy Cobb and Butch Miles hang at Drummers World in NYC and rap about teaching and finding your own voice. Butch also tells a classic Buddy story.
Two great drummers.I've been listening to: Jimmy since his Miles days, and Butch since I first met him in '74 with Basie in Westport Ct. Later I got to know Butch much better when I was a radio host on WJAZ in Stamford Ct. I admire both Jimmy and Butch for their tremendous feel and sense of swing. Not many players around anymore like these two gentlemen!
i love butch and made great friends with him ever since meeting him in cork ireland when he was touring with bob wilber back in the eighties.real genuine dude who loves playing and teaching.great to see him here,thanks for posting

Terrific, two of our great elders passing down the wisdom. Both of these guys have had a huge impact on my playing and my life.

Butch is one of the last really good big band drummers from that day. Good to see more videos of him coming up here lately. It's well deserved,
