Awesome drummer, Barriemore Barlow -
another great inspiration for me:

He also changed the way people
heard the double-kick. Just a
fabulous player!

My favorite rock drummer! Great to watch as well. Great economy of motion, so fluid around the kit! I like his work on JT's Stormwatch album.

"something's on the move" just kills!

In honor of the bulb bike horn and rearview mirror he used to mount on his kit in Tull, I had a bike horn latched to a cymbal stand for years back in the day; would even honk the thing during solos.

Surprisingly, I read Ritchie Blackmore rippin' on Barrie in an old issue of Guitar Player: "I had a blow with them (Tull) once and that drummer couldn't keep a straight beat."

I haven't laughed so hard since I read a lady reviewer's quip about Moby Dick 1977: "That drummer played for so long I thought the rest of the group had gone out to dinner or something."

5-8,

LOL! That is quite a story! Hi, btw. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Barrie always played and no doubt, Ritchie
was not used to that type of syncopation.
He did play with drumming great, Ian Paice,
though and that accounts for a lot, surely.
