Gault, Billy

When Destiny Calls

Pianist/composer Billy (also known as William X) Gault recorded this his first and only leader album almost 50 years ago (October 1974). In spite of the elusive and sporadic career Gault has long achieved legendary status among many followers. Gault was born in New York in 1941 and studied music at Bennett Highschool and Buffalo University. He played in the Art Blakeys Jazz Messengers and with Jackie McLean in the 70s. Billy Gaults only documented album here is a collection of his own compositions characterized as hard bop with religious overtones.
