This jam to Billy Cobham’s music is a free interpretation from my part. This track is from Billy’s 1974 follow up album “Total Eclipse” after the groundbreaking and successful 1973 album “Spectrum”. This track is insanely organic in it’s time and tempo (and sometimes the drums, bass and horns seems to play in different time zones), nevertheless a brilliant composition delivered with raw emotion. Here’s the original track. Billy Cobham - Total Eclipse:

Most of the things I cover (concerning both drum-style and choice of music) is a result of the “soundtrack of my life”. And my highest hope is of course that this can lead to musical discoveries (from a great area of music) for someone else. And for the ones that know this music at least lead to rediscovery and revitalization of a golden past.
Don’t hesitate to comment on my posts whether it’s questions, recommendations or critique.
