I met Mulgrew in Germany while we were both at the same hotel and on tour. He was touring with Ron Carters trio. Both he and Ron were very kind and answered my questions about how it was to play with Tony. Ron left soon after but Mulgrew stayed and talked with me for a bit. And then he passed away. Total shocker. Never did get to see Tony in person. I don't think I could've even handled it. Tony was the one and only Tony. Often imitated but never duplicated. Never. I make all of my students watch Tony. His unique musicality taught me soooo much about the drums that I was missing before. Hell yeah Tony freaking Williams! And Mulgrew Miller!

Tony was as much an anomaly as Miles. So different from others in vision, their lenses a fair bit stronger. Boldly going where no others went. Who else in Jazz could pull off that badass yellow kit? Nobody but Tony!

It was the red powder coated lugs on his DW kit.......with the TW yellow shells which looked......how should I say..........really weird. P.S. I loved that yellow. I had that finish on a Meazzi Hollywood kit that Art Blakey once played. Gorgeous kit. The red lugs (and red rubber tom feet!) ??????

Thank you for posting this, great memories playing with Tony at La Pinède de Juan les Pins! It was very special for me, I grew up not far from Antibes. My parents took me to see many artists perform on that stage by the beach in the early sixties…

I think the personnel is: Piano - Mulgrew Miller Soprano Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone - Billy Pierce Trumpet - Wallace Roney Drums - Tony Williams Bass - Ira Coleman??? (I don't recognize him but am guessing based on looking up internet who Tony played with then). It would be nice if the uploader figured out who is on this and put it in the description.

And vice versa, definitely. But after TW saw BC perform on those monstrous kits he played in the 70's, TW followed suit with three floor toms, two toms up, and a 14x24 bass drum. He was playing with his New Lifetime group at the time, but even for acoustic jazz, he played the 24, which is mind boggling.
