Played bass with Billy in '78 at a drum clinic in Houston. All you can do is hang on for dear life. He asked for my number when it was over and I almost passed out. Never heard back. Lol! Will take it anyway.
...all you can do is HANG ON...wow. That says it all. Then, you know that when Billy came on the scene late 60s, early 70s, drummers F E A R E D him. Feared him. You can tell here that drummers still do.
I saw him in a tiny converted theater up in Bryan in the mid 80s. His drum set literally took up the entire stage! The band was crammed to the edges of the stage. It was awesome!!
Pour moi, un des plus grands batteurs de l'histoire du jazz-rock. Avec 2 ou 4 baguettes, (en démonstration), il prouve et redonne des lettres de noblesse aux percussions longtemps dépassées par les guitares électriques, les orgues ou autres. Un grand Monsieur dont je suis fan depuis plus de 20 ans. J'ai encore pratiquement tous ses albums en vinyle, (je suis de l'ancienne génération) et je ne m'en lasse pas. Tout comme Christian Vander avec Magma et Didier Lockwood, Billy a su créer son propre style inégalé à ce jour.
@@axllow3914 yeah I know he died 76.I was in Tampa at Curtis hixon Hall crossing the University of Tampa that I was attending and he was to play with Jeff Beck and died in Miami a couple of days before.. They played a tribute to him. It was awesome.. I'm sorry I didn't get to see him... But yeah he wouldn't have been playing in 2011 read it wrong. I apologize..
Billy Cobham always sounded like he rolled a giant drumset down an endless flight of stairs, and it somehow caught a rhythm. Always appreciated the way he cracked that snare.
Thanks Yvon! We as kids used to jam this and Stratus. Seeing vids of Jeff Beck and others doing these two I always wondered what Mr Cobham thought. Now I know- Tasty indeed! Mr. Cobham played at my college in middle Seventies with Brecker Bros. I was school photographer so I got to meet him. What a soft spoken Giant he was then and now.
The AMAZING Billy Cobham,on my first album Spectrum, 1977 for me ,Red Baron was my favorite song. I saw Mr. Cobham at the Blue Note Jazz club in New York City twice. What can I say. I love the man. all musicians on this video are amazing. Thank you all!!
My very first concert was to see Billy and John in M.O. open for ELP in Long Beach like 1974 and it was amazing to say the least. Then went on to catch Billy open for Weather Report at the SM Civic and when I was ushered with my deadly gorgeous date to where the mixing board was placed I was then taken to the management and offered 2nd row center seats !
I THINK THIS KIND OF TAKE THE PLACE OF THE 1982 LIVE ALBUM VERSION HE DID '' BILLY COBHAM'S GLASS MENAGERIE SMOKIN '' ALSO UNDER THE FILM TITLE BILLY COBHAM-RED BARON ( MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL 1978) IT IS HERE ON RUclips

He was in Dreams with Breackers back then with many great musicians which all were basically from Berklee Boston with John Abercrombie on guitar

Is it legal to have this much talent on one stage?
El mejor baterista del mundo 👍!!
For a youtube video the sound quality on this performance is astounding. And I say this wearing the kind of headphones that are unforgiving.
This was magical! ✨
