I feel ancient synapses of musical memory unlocking lately. I formed my jazz tastes listening to Billy Cobham’s album “A Funky Thide of Sings” (1975) and the Billy Cobham and George Duke Band “Live on Tour in Europe” (1976).
I just found a video of Cobham/Duke playing together again in 1998. My gosh, Billy Cobham has only gotten better over the years. This one’s for my drummer friends; you know who you are.

Ok, this isn’t related to Billy Cobham, but it is related to music and the blog is all about conversation, right? So Birgit got a “Dead Can Dance” DVD for her birthday from my sister yesterday. Have you heard (of) them? It was intriguing but very different kind of stuff. I would be interested to hear your and your readers opinions.
