    The guy who came in and re-recorded all of the drum tracks on Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms album in a few days. The only thing the original drummer did that remained on the track was the intro to Money for Nothing. Everything else was Omar.

    Omar was the first drummer I admired who can lock tempo but hit snares and toms ahead or behind the beat to create excitement - back in the Sting years. Awesome dude!

I was 20 or 21 years old and you could walk into any Guitar Center in California and they would have Omar and Dave weckl a continuous loop. It was a wonderful time to be doing Studio work.
