I suppose this one deserves recognition, although it is uncertain if we can say he wasn't a drummer. He has some serious credits for work on the kit.

I can't say for sure if she actually played drums, but she seems to know what she's doing here.. And.... She looks absolutely gorgeous doing it.. Just look at that face..

I've been in love with her since i was 6 years old, and still think she's beautiful today !

What a cool posting! Thanks, drumfx! Years ago, on an episode of "Hogan's Heroes" I saw Bob Crane playing a kit for the prison band. As I recall, he was pretty good!

Brian

Just a drummer who loves all things about vintage drums! Nothing more, nothing less.
