This is my personal channel and it was originally just a place for me to post random music related videos. My passion is drums, vintage drums in particular, so recently this channel has a lot of content relating to that. Going forward expect more drum history, groove breakdowns, and reviews and playing demos of my favorite gear.

Просмотров 3,1 тыс.Год назад
The Tom Mills drum is a museum piece, LITERALLY, because it was made by the founder of Sonor drums before he started Sonor drums and because it was THE inspiration for William F Ludwig to start making brass shell, separate tension snare drums in the US long before Ludwig and Ludwig existed.

I have done my best to verify the facts contained in this video, but like many historical pieces much of the information comes from sources that are repeating what they’ve been told or read from other sources. The major points...
