Seen a lot of these., but this one is awesome!
Kenny Aronoff is a major force in the drumming community, he introduces himself so..and he nails Yes' Changes from 90125.

The best for last?
Kenny is 71 years old  :o


Why is it in Musicians? I am thinking of doing the course, I did learn music reading early on, but have since abandoned it largely in favor os listening and doing a basic chart when I hear new stuff. But I am thinking I now want this.

How is everyone on here with reading music?

Kenny is an absolute powerhouse of a drummer. We had Mellencamp's Lonesome Jubilee at vinyl night last night. And I listened to Scarecrow today.
He's a great drummer.

Huge regret, can't read a note. I should have stuck with violin lessons at primary school but I think I was only seven or eight and the teacher was a horrible scary guy. Seems funny now thinking back. He was a hired hand for the school. Probably a music student but he seemed quite old to me. I think in lesson two or three he had a bit of a go at me as I hadn't practised "I saw three ships a sailing" enough. The lessons were held in quite a cramped medical room. After my chastisement he got up and spat in the sink. I was horrified and gave up violin instantly and handed back my borrowed instrument. My interest switched to clarinet but my parents were obviously not convinced that the expense of buying me one would be worthwhile. So, many years of still having a fascination for music went by without any outlet for any possibility of lurking musical talent. Nose firmly pressed against any music store I walked past all during my early to mid teens. At 17 or 18 I got my first bass, a Kay I think and a P Bass copy. I tried buying the odd music score tuition book but couldn't make it stick. I regret that but things like that don't hold back the Geddys of this world. Real creative talent will always find a way.
