Met Neil totally by chance on the beach in Hollywood FL when he was on vacay with his daughter and wife (who both later passed).

Bruford, who i met a couple of times including when he helped launch the Simmons amazing SDX kit, saw the possibilities of implementing electronic drums in a different way... including melodically. His exploration in prog, jazz, and melody is awe-inspiring. Bill creates both experimental sound in interesting 'time' and space for the music to flourish.

Bozzio... an amazing musical journey. From his really cool electronic triggers within a custom artistic platform during Missing Persons to other kits, and yes, finally, his large tuned drums and percussion kit many are familiar with today. This current kit makes incredible sense to me, bravo Terry! His musical journey shows glorious human technical prowess combined with musical 'growth' and inspiration imho, tho Bruford is his equal yet in a different way.

While my friends were busy learning The Who, Stones, Beatles and others, some of us were on a different 'not commercially acceptable' path... and that's when i realized the music biz is as Hunter S. Thompson says it is.

<sarc> Gotta love the music BUSINESS.
I’ve liked Bozzio’s playing and the drums of his huge, tuned set sounds cool but the cymbals sound like trash can lids to me. I haven’t been as fond of his solos though. That’s where I feel Peart really shined. To me, his solos were always more interesting than many of the other great drummers. Buddy Rich was awfully damn good as well.

Currently listening to rough mixes from our latest recording project. Last week we added some keyboards [B3, piano, Fender Rhodes, & Wurlitzer] to 4 tracks from a local legend, Steve Schmidt, who was asked to fill in for Count Basie on a couple gigs many years ago when the Dr would not allow CB to perform.

Agreed Peart embraced a more 'structured' solo and was generally well thought-out ahead of time, while i think Bozzio has a looser structure and just does a lot of it by 'feel of the moment'.

Have seen Rich a couple of times and yes he was fast, flamboyant, and with style. Like trumpet player Maynard Furguson, i think Rick tended to hire very talented college-aged kids for his band. All good stuff

Being Canadian, some Gordon Lightfoot recently.

But this week it's been Augustana. How many of you are familiar with them? I saw a concert recently in Toronto and it was awesome. Their album Can't Love, Can't Hurt is really great!

I guess I’ve been out of it for a while, but I literally just discovered Greta Van Fleet. Regardless of who they may sound like, they kick the heck out of the vast majority of stuff out there right now…. So I’m listening to whatever I can get ahold of of theirs…
