    "comment": "Happy Thursday and welcome to The Afternoon Show with smiling Larry Mizell, Jr. and lovely producer Sharlese! From September 15th to October 15th, on Aqui y Ahora, KEXP recognizes the contributions, resilience, and music of Latinx, Hispanic and Latino-identified communities everywhere. Today, on OG Thursday, Larry is celebrating fusion's greatest drummer, Panamanian–American jazz drummer Billy Cobham! We’re so glad you’re here with us today!\n--\n\"What makes Cobham’s drumming on “Stratus” so unique is how he balances control and chaos. He’s got a deep pocket, so the groove always feels tight, but he never plays it safe—he’s constantly pushing the rhythm, adding layers of texture and intensity without ever losing the pulse. It’s like he’s having a conversation with every other instrument at once, yet he’s always in the lead.\"\n--\nThe personnel are: Billy Cobham – Drums, Percussion & Producer \nJan Hammer – Electric Piano, Moog Synthesizer \nTommy Bolin – Electric Guitar \nLee Sklar – Electric Bass",
