Bill has been playing in an organ trio with Larry Goldings and Peter Bernstein for the last 25 years. They release material as "The Larry Goldings Trio", "The Peter Bernstein Trio", and "Peter Bernstein, Larry Goldings and Bill Stewart". But regardless of what name they play under, when these three get together general bad-assery abounds.
First, here is some trading on the tune "Metamorphosis", from the Peter Bernstein record Earth Tones. Bill has such a grasp on independence, and internalization of time and form that he can take ideas which, when seen on paper, are actually quite clinical and scientific and give them an incredibly raw and earthy, almost Elvin-y vibe.

Next is the intro to a Meters-esque tune from The Larry Goldings Trio record called Moonbird. Here Bill channels his inner Ziggy but in his own, unique Bill Stewart way.
Could you send me a PDF of your metamorphosis transcription?
