In the mid 70's when you couldn't escape the sound of disco drums, I turned to jazz fusion, and one of my favorite albums from that time was this one by The New Tony Williams Lifetime titled "Believe it," and after listening to it, I sure did believe it.
Tony Williams was phenom, and has even been called "probably the best drummer in the world." To put an exclamation point on that, Tony played with Miles Davis when he was only 17 years old. Not only did he play with Miles, he was the driving force behind the sound of Miles Davis's
"Second Great Quintet."
This record from 1975 included Allan Holdsworth on Guitar, Tony Newton on Bass, and Alan Pasqua on Electric Piano and Clavinet.
Unfortunately Tony passed away in 1997 at only 51 years of age.
All I can say is TURN IT UP!!
