Billy Martin: illyB Eats 2
by AAJ Staff
Be warned: this collection of beats and grooves is not suitable for regular listening... so if you're looking for straight-up satisfaction, look elsewhere.

After all these years, the master drummer/percussionist has decided to unveil his earliest work as a leader on Amulet Records, ...

Coltrane, who bore so many musical descendants, will surely be pleased with the various tributes to come. One early contribution to that upcoming year ...
