We spoke to drummer <b>Jeff Williams</b> for a very special LondonJazz Podcast.<br/><br/>

Jeff came in with such an interesting life story to tell that we ended up speaking for about forty minutes and splitting the interview into a three-part series. This is part one and the rest will follow at a later date.<br/>br/>

Part 1 focuses on Jeff's early musical life, from meeting Miles Davis when he was 11 years old to studying at Berklee, jamming with Dave Holland, seeing Thelonius Monk play, joining Stan Getz's group... and so much more.<br/><br/>

We also talk about one of his early groups <b>The Ant Trip Ceremony</b> which he joined when he was just sixteen. We have embedded a You Tube clip of <i>Pale Shades of Grey</i> from their 1967 release <i>24 Hours</i> below for reference<br/><br/>
