One of Jeff's last interviews is being posted by Drum Mag
Kingdom of Desire Session
If you don't have TOTO's Kingdom of Desire....GET IT!
Some highlights...
Two hours and ten songs later-capped by a grueling, triple-stroke bass drum workout on the Sly Stone tune, "Higher"-he emerges from behind the pummeled tubs, holding his hip, limping, and laughing. "Man, I'm getting too old for this!" High fives are exchanged and slowly the room clears. For Jeff, the next stop is Chuck E. Cheese's pizza parlor for his son's five-year birthday party. "See you tomorrow," and off he goes.
===============================================
DRUM! Approximately how many sessions do you think you've done?
Jeff: Last year a British publishing company put out an encyclopedia of music which had a listing of musicians and the records they'd played on. I had quite a few, but it was probably actually only half of what I'd played on. A lot of stuff never even gets released. Probably half the stuff that anybody does never see's the light of day, it's on some shelf somewhere.
Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where? Where?

I was seeing the transcription of Rosanna and i found a different place of the second bass drum note from where i expected it was
the transcription show it play on the third note of the second triplet ( hi hat )
