    Billy's 1985 Tama Superstars with a custom paint job look and sound amazing, he recently received them from back from the previous owner and is using them on this Crosswinds Tour.

      saw him two weeks ago in philly .. the way Billy explained it was the “Warning” kit walked away from a reputable storage facility in 1986. he was able to track down the shells on eBay and somehow get them back and they are on the Crosswinds tour. beautiful shells when u see them up close

    Nobody plays tighter than Jazz Fusion bands!!!
    Been a fan of Billy Cobham and all jazz fusion since Christmas 1973 when I received the "Spectrum" album! I can't even begin to imagine how many times I've played that album, and his others, over the years. "Spectrum opened my eyes and ears to so many fine, excellent musicians over the years.
    I especially like the work he's done lately collaborating with the Nicolosi Productions /Novecento " "Drum and Voice" albums 1, 2, 3, and 4.

    I 1st saw Bill C when I was about 6 yrs old on the Atlantic City Boardwalk back in the late 60's with my dad. He was playing in a band called DREAMS with the Breaker Bros. Followed the guy all thru my school days. He is still playing and making great music.

      Ive been diggin' Billy too since the 70s and over the years I found that every drummer I've heard from beginner to pro, ..
      EVERY drummer will play SOMETHING in some way that I've heard him do or will remind me of some thing he's done. That ALONE is undeniable and proves the power of his influence in music. ALL music.
      Mah MAN!

    The camera should predominantly focus on Bill Cobham(99%). . He is the star and most of us want to see his playing, and we don't gain anything from watching the other musicians pressing on frets or keys and making faces.

      Jan Hammer used better sounds in the 70's. It's now 2022. There is no reason to use bad synth brass and pad sounds. Hope that explains my comment a little better.
