A rare recording of Billy Higgins, talking with Rudy Van Gelder and Don Sickler about the great tenor saxophonist Dexter Gordon. This conversation was recorded in 1998, at Rudy Van Gelder's studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, where Higgins recorded countless great records.

I never could understand why on CZcams it's become fashionable to talk down on this legendary drummer. Billy was like an athletic machine on the drums. 🥁

My favorite drummer!

Billy Higgins is one of the most recorded drummers in the history of this music. How come there's no extensive interviews with him about all the giants he played with? Sad!.....

Love this history and the music is the best!
