Charlie was not having one of his best years, mainly because he had Ollie Brown playing on many songs where there did not need be percussion.

I think Charlie never played any better than on the 1975 tour. He played looser and more free than any other tour. As far as he ever was a freestyle jazz drummer it was on this tour. He has never been as adventurous as on this tour. And he had the best snare sound ever.

I really don't hear it that way Mathijs; re. him playing looser, and the snare sound is a tricky call IMO because much of this is based on the boots. And they got better with each passing year, as the PA's themselves got better. I always loved Charlie in '69, style wise, and e.g. the snare sound on Ya-Ya's may be one of my alltime favorites.
But when someone whose opinion I really respect says something that differs from my view , it makes me go re-visit the whole deal, LOL.

When revisiting start with IORR from LA Friday. That's just amazing to my ears -Charlie never plays a steady beat for more than 4 bars. It's like he's soloing or playing percussion for the entire song.
