every time I watch a Quintet performance from this era, I always come away being more impressed by Tony Williams and Ron Carter than anyone else on the stage. it's almost impossible to overstate how incredibly dynamic and potent they are. for all the legend surrounding Herbie or Wayne or Miles himself, they are simply not as physically impressive as the powerhouse workhorse energy and constant - seamless, ceaseless - creative flow which is radiating from Tony and Ron. with virtually no letting up from start to finish. just boundless enthusiasm and inspiration. if you've never played drums or double bass, I don't think you can imagine how difficult it is to maintain such frenetic pace or high tempo for one whole song, let alone a complete show. Williams own internal stamina could power entire cities... the size and strength in Carter's fingers would make the branches of a Redwood jealous... absolutely incredible

Agree completely, LazyLion...In describing their incredible performance at Philharmonic Hall on 2/12/64, Jack Chambers said they maintained a pace that must be close to the physical limits of bass plucking and drumming--and the sheer musicality of Tony Williams' drumming always astonishes me. It's kinda sad in a way that after his tenure with Miles he never achieved greater accomplishments than these, though he remained for the rest of his life the most musical/melodic drummer in the history of the music, IMHO.

The reason why Miles's "free music" is superior to the avant-garde of that period, is that the music is tonal. The music has a tonal center, and they respond to the chords and modes they superimpose over the pedal. This was unlike the "free music" of the 60's, especially Cecil Taylor.
