[[File:Milliondollarlegs.jpeg|right|200px]]"Million Dollar Legs" is a 1976 album by The New Tony Williams Lifetime. This album is quite a stark contrast to its predecessor, especially considering how close in time they were. Where "Believe It" was a combination of raw energy and virtuosic improvisation, "Million Dollar Legs" is polished and with less focus on improv. In other words, it's much less jazz. Williams and Newton are in charge of most of the material, with Allan writing nothing. Tony Newton is even singing on his own R'n'B/funk tune "You Did It To Me". This sudden change in direction led to some calling this album "I Don't Believe It". There are a few notable guitar moments, but for Holdsworth fans this is a letdown. | [[File:Milliondollarlegs.jpeg|right|200px]]"Million Dollar Legs" is a 1976 album by The New Tony Williams Lifetime, that features Allan on guitar.
