The lobby of the Ritz hotel.
I never fail to be mesmerized by the epic drum solo from "In a Gadda Da Vida". In fact, it's the only reason I bought the LP.

Likewise with the trippy lush drums on the extended version of Sparks' "Beat the Clock". It was well worth the 40 dollars I put into the yellow 12" single.

I've always liked John Bonham drumming and his fast double bass beats in "Good Times Bad Times".

Alex Van Halen in his finishing jamming in "Mean Street"..

Bill Ward drumming to Hand Of Doom.. Try playing that combo some time.. It sounds simple but it takes some skills..


Black Label's drummer during "All For You"



Les Claypools drummer doing this warm up..


And pretty much anything Fred Courey plays in concert

Paradise City- Steven Adler

is simple as the 4/4 time beat he is keeping, it is the same thing that makes it great. You would be surprised when I was auditioning drummers how many struggled with 4/4 time

This one:



In July of 1964, I shared a tent in scout camp with Eddie Pranskus, who would become the drummer of Thundermug! He was into the Dave Clark Five as opposed to the Beatles at the time.
