| Your favorite Sheherazade LP ? I too like the Reiner CSO recording but have to add that Analogue Productions did this recording a great service when they reissued it on SACD/hybrid. It's also available as a DSD download on the Acoustic Sounds website. | |
| Mono recordings For one thing with mono, you're not splitting the resolution between two channels, which over all makes mono recordings much denser. Also as mentioned, many early recordings were only recorded in mono or if a record was recorded in both mono and ... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers It looks as though many aren't shying away from mentioning jazz drummers. My mention, Joey Baron. | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers bdp24, I've got a fever and the only cure is more cow bell! (teehee) I believe that those in a soundtrack situation could benefit from what Broadway musical pit drummers are doing. Pit drummers need to stay four or more measures ahead of the orche... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Ian Pace stated that Ringo Starr was his favorite drummer while he was learning to play (or something similar). He mentioned that Ringo was a swinging drummer like no other. I've always admired Ringo Starr for his musicality, his unpredictability ... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers lowrider!Gong, New York Gong, Daevid Allen's Gong, Pierre Moerlen's Gong,Planet Gong,...so many to choose from. For Pierre Moerlen's Gong, 'Shamal' is a fun listen. Daevid Allen's last record 'I See You' (2014) has some great tracks and Orlando Al... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers audiolabyrinth, it's just as funny how no-one knows who Pierre Moerlen is, given he had a long career as a drummer, percussionist, musician and technician. It may just be a generation gap. | |

| Greatest Rock Drummers Very cool Michael, Woodstock 1969 is beyond legendary, What else can be said? | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers bdp24, I do know that Jim Keltner is a very musical drummer, he's just not someone that I know about extensively. Primarily his works with Steely Dan and John Lennon are recognizable. I've spent most of my time and energy invested in jazz and clas... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers bdp24, unfortunately I never had the opportunity to see Leon Russell. Yes, Jim Keltner was a solid drummer too but I never saw him play. Not many of these guys around anymore. | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers The most interesting and fun I’ve seen, has to be the Rhythm Devils (Billy Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart) with the Grateful Dead. The last time was in Santa Clara for the Fare Thee Well tour, both nights. And the more they incorporated electronics th... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Keith Carlock (Wayne Krantz) played with Steely Dan as did Peter Erskin, so both played Rock music. I think worth mentioning is David Kemper who I saw with the Jerry Garcia Band and he is as rock solid as they come. If I had a musically charged gr... | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Sorry about getting here late. I come from the Gary Chester philosophy about drumming, which is to play musically foremost and then if you’re given a drum solo... Lately I’ve been listening to Dallas Taylor on the first CS&N recording and it s... | |
