Tony is/was one of my top 10 drummers of all time. He was the Commandant of Rythmic Finnesse.

It's ok if you dont like something ... Absolutely fine ... But also important to have humility to realise that you might be incapable of understanding certain things happening around you .. they are not necessarily bad or incapable, because you think so .. all the power to you .. let's listen harder !!!

Long live the father of Afrobeat

Can we talk about the saxophonist tho, he’s a little off direction
Maybe it’s just hard to take on all those notes solo

[lustierpatrick]

Mon dieu mon dieu.... Qu'est ce que Art Blakey a à voir avec ça...?!

[Calfemerald]

Did that guy honestly have names written on his shirt with a marker???? I get the “free” genre and these guys are beyond talented but come

[chrisscott]

That drummer is terrible. Check how the swing goes when the drums come in. As soon as the drums start it drags, then that's it all gone to shit.
