musical drummers...who are they ???
Stevecham. I found the article in Modern Drummer. Kenney Jones tells MD that he did not “ghost drum” on tracks before Keith died. He also admits to doing the soundtrack to the film “Tommy”, stating that Keith was in the studio but “out of it”. 
musical drummers...who are they ???
Stevecham, I may be wrong, but, I believe I read in Modern Drummer that Keith Moon did not play on the majority of that album. It may have been Kenny Jones. Since this thread is really about great drummers in general, add Todd Sucherman of Styx to... 
What song turns back the clock?
Shaw, Blades new CD.Had to respond since I’m listening right now to the new release by Tommy Shaw and Jack Blades titled Influence. Shaw (Styx, Damn Yankees) and Blades (Night Ranger, Damn Yankees) just released a CD of covers from the 60s and 70s... 
Music that has good cymbals
Gomez, Bring it On. Excellent, excellent recording. Track 6 has some of the best cymbal crashes I’ve ever heard recorded. Also, several tracks feature excellent hi-hat and splash cymbal work. You won’t be disappointed by the deep toms and bass dru... 
Anybody play any musical instruments...........
Tvad. I hope you achieve your dream. From what I understand, the Vistalites are making a come back. I see other drum manufactures (Tama, Sonor, as well as Ludwig) marketing these sets. If you are not a subscriber, I’d recommend getting Modern Drum... 
Anybody play any musical instruments...........
After a 16 year leave of the drums (marriage, kids, work, etc) I built a home office that’s large enough to accomodate my new drums and audio gear. I changed my previous audio equipment with the goal of finding new gear that could effortlessly pla... 
Mapleshade Samson rack: Opinions?
Mhu,I have experience with some Mapleshade products (not the Samson) and have been very impressed. That said, I would like you to also consider the Sistrum racks by Star Sound Technologies. I’m just a happy owner of this rack who can testify (alon... 
Wadia 860, Levinson & Aero Cap Direct into Amp
I agree with Nathanu. In my opinion, the Wadia 861 with the Statement Upgrade is an upgrade above the AA. The Wadia is built a hell of alot better too!I haven’t heard the 390s but someone I trust tells me that it isn’t nearly as good as the upgrad... 
Tweaks for Silverline speakers?
Hi,I own a pair of LaFolias and initially I had them on pucks. This made it fairly easy to move them until I was happy with the placement. They weight 165 lbs each so once I found the optimum spot, there they will stay.They are now sitting on Sist... 
Speakers that sing
I would seriously consider speakers much lower than $5,000 unless you also plan to upgrade your electronics (Excluding the Meridian). I owned the 4BST and IMO, it is not capable of maximizing the performance of these excellent speakers (Magnepan, ... 
The absolute best and worst-sounding CD you own ?
Mdomnick, August and Everything After is the only CD I own by The Counting Crows. This recording is actually very good for rock music. Mine is not the Mobility Fidelity disc. My only compliant was that there was background hiss during the softer p... 
Which power conditioner for my Musician II ?
I preferred no power conditioner on my Spectron. I previously owned a Hydra and then an Audio Magic Stealth. I kept the Spectron directly to the dedicated line (JPS labs in-wall cable with a FIM outlet). I have since been fortunate to greatly upgr... 
Jena Labs
I’m always hesitant to recommend products because of considerations we all realize (system synergy, room, likes/dislikes, etc, etc.) But here goes... I’m just burning in a pair of Harmonix 101 SLC and after only 50+ hours they sound amazing. I bel... 
5 best underrated or unknown bands and why?
I agree with Dogeatpuppy. Gomez is a great band and as a bonus, the recordings are far superior to other rock bands.My favorite disk is Bring it On.
