Billy Cobham: Blowin' in the Crosswinds - JazzTimes

He was (arguably) the definitive drummer of the fusion generation. Now Billy Cobham is returning to some of his 1970s music—but don’t expect a retread.

Billy Cobham – Crosswinds (Full Album)

Crosswinds is the second album of fusion drummer Billy Cobham. The album was released in 1974. It comprises four songs, all composed by Billy Cobham.

“Billy Cobham’s second date as a leader was one of his better sessions. Four songs (all originals by the leader/drummer) comprise “Spanish Moss — A Sound Portrait,” and, in addition, Cobham contributed three other pieces. The selections team him with guitarist John Abercrombie, both of the Brecker Brothers, trombonist Garnett Brown, keyboardist George Duke, bassist John Williams, and Latin percussionist Lee Pastora. In general, the melodies and the vamps are reasonably memorable. Cobham also takes an unaccompanied drum solo on “Storm.” Worth searching for by fusion collectors.” – Scott Yanow/AllMusic .
