The weekend beer and music thread


Reminded me to post this from the Wildhearts' New York album "Chutzpah!" ( listening to the first 3 mins and 22 seconds, you might think....how? why? .... but the glorious long guitar playout and "here I am " refrain is the answer)

 
Possibly, along with Simon Phillips, my favourite drummer. And Tony Levin, what a bassist.

That drum intro is an absolute signature groove..nobody, and many have tried, can get close to the way Gadd plays it…breaking it down it’s really just a little military March figure.
But the touch and feel, well just ‘Gadd like’
Apparently on the session when they were recording it they couldn’t find a way into the song. Then Gadd suggested trying. “Something I’ve been messing about with”
Breaking drummers hearts since 1979😂
