Herbie Hancock piano
Freddy Hubbard trumpet
Ron Carter contra bass
Tony Williams drums

Take a minute to look at that Quartet's line-up. Herbie Hancock piano, Freddy Hubbard trumpet, Ron Carter bass, and Tony Williams on drums. Any Jazz lover reading this will need no prompting to download this one. For the casual Jazz fan, this is not Hard Avant-Garde Jazz, Free Form Jazz, Funk-Jazz or Jazz Fusion. This is a more traditional style of Jazz, so nothing to fear here. If you just download a Jazz show here and there, this is one you should do just that. I recommend you'll enjoy it!

Great sounding set from Jazz Legend Tony Williams. Only thing wrong here...it's way too short. WE lost Tony Williams to a heart attack, February 23, 1997 at the age of 51. Mulgrew Miller passed away from a stroke, May 29, 2013, at the age of 57.

I think I downloaded this from Jazz Boot Experiment but I'm not sure. Jazz Boot Experiment is another great site for live unreleased Jazz shows from various artists. They are usually posted in MP3 320kbps and have a front cover for making a CD. This is another site that I recommend all my fellow Jazz fans visit.

This is a wonderful tribute to Jazz Great Tony Williams (R.I.P.).
