Album Review: This Time The Drum’s On Me, one of three recordings Levey made as a leader for Bethlehem in the mid-fifties, he displays sticking and footwork equal to Kenny Clarke and Max Roach, the two primary architects of modern jazz drumming. Levey’s unobtrusive support of the soloists is in the form of steady, flowing time on a thin sounding ride cymbal, or meticulous brushwork, rather than stylishly “dropping bombs” on the snare and bass drums. Only during brief breaks and one extended solo does Levey cut loose in a way that is reminiscent of his better known contemporaries.
