Born to Drum: The Truth About the World's Greatest Drummers--from John Bonham and Keith Moon to Sheila E. and Dave Grohl

â€œAn engaging journey into the wild and wonderful world of drumming.â€â€”CLEM BURKE, BlondieTo have a great band you need a great drummer. For the first time, Tony Barrell shines a long-overdue spotlight on these musicians, offering an exciting look into their world, their art, and their personalities. In Born to Drum, he interviews some of the most famous, revered, and influential drummers of our timeâ€”including Chad Smith, Ginger Baker, Clem Burke, Sheila E., Phil Collins, Nick Mason, Patty Schemel, Butch Vig, and Omar Hakimâ€”who share astonishing truths about their work and lives. He investigates the stories of late, great drummers such as Keith Moon and John Bonham, analyzes many of the greatest drum tracks ever recorded, and introduces us to the worldâ€™s fastest and loudest drummers, as well as the first musician to pilot a â€œflying drum kitâ€ onstage.Filled with fascinating insights into the trade and little-known details about the greats, Born to Drum elevates drummers and their achievements to their rightful place in music lore and pop culture.â€œAs Born to Drum proves, thereâ€™s a lot more to be told about drums and drumming than the Rolls-Royce in the swimming pool and the pyro beneath the bass drum.â€â€”NICK MASON, Pink Floydâ€œEveryone should read this bookâ€”especially if youâ€™re not a drummer. A great insight into a great sport.â€â€”Joey Kramer, Aerosmith
