Mitch Mitchell RIP

That is sad news. I saw him in 73 playing drums at the Bay Front Center in St Petersburg, Fl, with a group called Ramatam. He was one of the best rock drummers I've ever seen... very smooth and kind of jazzy.

It is tough to believe that the entire band is dead now.

So sad, especially since they were one of the leaders of the '60s music scene.

I always thought that he lost it when Hendrix died. Just look at what happened to his career. Like Ginger Baker, wasted potential.

"Like Ginger Baker, wasted potential."

What??!! Chashmal- . . . you are a frickin' idiot.

Yeah Deano, that's a great exponent of the old Socratic debate. One man's fantastic percussive accompaniment is another man's wasted potential. I guess we have different opinions and tastes. Yes, I think he blew it and could have been great. Instead, just mediocre. Sorry. Maybe there are other opinions outside of the trailer park.
