He's an excellent drummer but I always thought his syncopated beats didn't really work with hendrix, I think someone with a solid backbeat like Led Zeps John Bonham would have worked better to anchor the whole sound. Agree with you about the premiers, I never liked them. As it happens, Ludwig have just released replicas of their old classic drums (drool, drool) but at greater expense than I can manage. Just in case you missed John Bonham (how likely is that?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl_h586Ep9M Drumming in that is way harder than it sounds. And why not have a go yourself! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-p1gHyqhnw
