I liked his style. Not what I'd call extraordinary, but a good natural feel that added something good to every band he was in. @bdp24 , what do you think of him? |
Oh man, Johnny was fantastic! Even Buddy Rich thought so. His technical playing is just subtle enough to pass unnoticed, but not by drummers. Give a new listen to his playing on The Turtles’ "Happy Together", "Elenore" and "She’d Rather Be With Me". Absolutely brilliant, hip, and cool! I employ Johnny’s kick drum ideas in my own playing. His and Levon Helm’s, my models for the playing of the bass drum.
