In this conversation from The Jazz Cruise in 2021, organist Joey DeFrancesco interviews his friend and bandmate—the legendary jazz drummer Billy Hart—about his long and illustrious career. Billy talks about growing up in Washington, DC and the influence of some of the elder jazz drummers. Naturally, they had to talk about Billy's stint with the legendary organist Jimmy Smith. Billy is truly a drummer's drummer and so the audience for this session was filled with just about every other drummer from the Cruise. This episode is sponsored by SiriusXM.
