The Drum Shuffle

Bill Stewart's drumming is almost instantly recognizable the moment you hear it.  He is a masterful and very melodic player that is in high demand by many jazz greats.  On episode 040, Bill took a moment before a show with John Scofield in Seattle to talk with Jamie about his legendary career.  Bill speaks freely about his upbringing in Des Moines, moving east to attend William Patterson University and beginning his professional career in New York.  Bill has recorded countless great records in his career and has played with dozens upon dozens of icons in the music industry.  This is a wonderful interview that offers great information on this superb musician.
