By the late ’80s, Levin’s legacy had grown to include Pink Floyd, Yes, and Gabriel’s seminal album So, for which Tony famously used diapers packed for his newborn daughter to mute the strings on Don’t Give Up, and developed funk fingers -drumsticks attached to his fingers-to duplicate Jerry Marotta’s drumming on his strings for Big Time.
