Greetings,
In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.perfectsoundforever.com>, you'll find (among other things):
GINGER BAKER
Give the drummer some! by Gary Gomes
"... it seems noteworthy that after the sixties, there were fewer Dino Danelli's (the Rascals), Joey Barbata's (the Turtles), or even Ron Edgar's, the drummer from the Music Machine, who were erroneously hailed as "pre-punk" (Martin Chambers from the Pretenders is a notable exception here). While proficient drummers persisted in critically reviled “prog rock,” talented drummers seemed few and far between. The only value they had was to play to the click track..."
We're always looking for good writers and/or good ideas (and even some bad ones) so let us know if you have anything to share.
See you online,
Jason
