Rock Siblings.....


I thought Julian Lennon had potential but that didn't happen. Forget Sean. Jakob Dylan is good but certainly not Dylan good. Zak Starkey has surpassed his Dad in every way. I think Damian Tuff Gong Marley does Bob Marley justice. Theres a bunch more out there, the more obscure the better. Any observations?

"And Zak isn't Keith Moon either" Probably not a bad thing, if you're at all concerned about liver function and life expectancy.

Zak is a darned decent drummer, that's for sure. And The Who's a darned good choice if he's gonna play with 1/2 of an elderly/legendary band ('cause he might have a small problem displacing the drummer of the other 1/2-strength elderly & legendary group of that era...)

Which of course has no relevance to either's musical acumen/proficiency.

Stay on course here horsehead.
Comparing Zak to Ringo is like walking into nuclear fallout without a
radiation suit.

IMO, if we're talking about musical acumen/proficiency, then my vote goes to
Zak over his dad. Zak's a tremendous musician. He's a far better fit with The
Who than either Kenny Jones or Simon Philips (who is the best of the bunch
regarding proficiency and musical acumen).

I once read that Zak learned much of his technique from Keith Moon, who
would sometimes come over to Ringo's house to hang out. Maybe
apocryphal, but it would explain certain stylistic similarities between Zak and
Keith (IMO).

Back to progeny...I have been told that Liam Finn, son of Neil Finn of
Crowded House, is quite talented.
I meant Rock's offspring. Not siblings. The kids of rock musicians we may have grown up listening to. Sorry for the confusion.
I also meant that Zak has surpassed his Dad in his drumming ability not in his accomplishments. That is undeniable.
