7/4 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I just heard Victor play with Steve Turre a few nights ago. Killer show too, tribute to JJ Johnson. New AAJ interview - Victor Lewis: The Drummer's Spirit Quote
CraigP Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I wondered what he's been up to. Seems like he was on a ton of sessions a few years ago, and then I didn't see his name much. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Fond memories of seeing him play with Bobby Watson's 'Horizon' a couple of decades ago. His recordings with Woody Shaw are great too. Edited February 12, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
BillF Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 Saw him with the Carla Bley Orch in the late 90s. Quote
jlhoots Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I saw / heard him a few months ago in a David Weiss group where he subbed for Billy Hart.He played well, but didn't look that healthy. Quote

John Tapscott Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 He's on the new George Cables CD Icons and Influences (High Note) which is very good. On George's previous High Note date, too. Quote
Peter Friedman Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 I especially liked his playing on the many albums he recorded with Stan Getz, Quote
CJ Shearn Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 Love his playing with Woody. I would enjoy hearing some of his more recent dates he's been on, Victor is always so tasteful. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 Only on page 2 of the interview, this is GREAT stuff I can learn from. Quote
