Me and Mr. Johnson
Slowhand's tribute to Delta blues legend Robert Johnson is released on March 23, 2004. The 14 covers are a "labor of love" and a long-held goal for Clapton to pay homage to one of his main musical influences. The band is a tad legendary, too -- Billy Preston on keyboards, Steve Gadd on drums, Nathan East on bass and Doyle Bramhall II. #ericclapton #slowhand #meandmrjohnson #blues #deltablues #robertjohnson #billypreston #stevegadd #music #musicsky…

O’Donel Levy – Simba (1974, US)
Our next spotlight is on number 303 on The List, submitted by weirdofhermiston.
Well hot damn, this is one funky album!
This is the fourth solo album from Baltimore jazz guitarist Levy, his fourth on Sonny Lester’s Groove Merchant album, third to be arranged by Manny Albam, and first to contain solely Levy’s own (or co-written) compositions.
What the stoic album cover doesn’t tell you is that contained within is a Levy-led brass-heavy band with members some of you may be familiar with, particularly in the rhythm section: Eddie Daniels on flute, piccolo, and baritone saxophone; Jon Faddis and Ernie Royal on trumpet; Burt Collins and Lew Soloff on both flugelhorn and trumpet; Cecil Bridgewater and Alan Rubin on flugelhorn; Bill Watrous on trombone; Warren Bernhardt on electric piano; Tony Levin – yes, the Tony Levin – on bass; and, *drum roll please* Steve Gadd on drums.
Have you hit play yet?!
Happy listening, all!

Just back from a concert with Bilcher Hemmer Gadd. While both Bilcher and Hemmer were great, Steve Gadd is why I bought the ticket.
So thankful to have experienced his drumming live, from about six meters distance. He is 79 years old and still playing perfectly. What an absolute legend!

@jadevol Yeah, especially #ChuckRainey talking about how he went against what they were asking him to play, and making it sound great. To have Chuck Rainey with #BernardPurdie & #JimKeltner & #SteveGadd on drums is something.
