Beatles Kids

[thenry]

Dhani Harrison new album - thefearofmissingout- to be released this month. What do you reckon to Julian Lennon, Zak Starkey, James McCartney and Dhani Harrison as the new super band ?

i think you will find that a lot of the bands around that time had their names on their bass drum skins.

Obviously The Beatles would have influenced those who had not already copied the trend, but i think in northern clubs, where a different band would play every weekend, it soon made sense for bands to have some non-verbail identification so that people could send the buzz around and get the crowd up for nest time they swung around that way.

Yes andy, but as dotty says, The Beatles' was more of a logo, with the elongated T, as opposed to being just the name daubed on the bass drum. I think she has a point!

Foot note - re MacCartney drumming - he played drums on some White Album tracks too after Starr left for a couple of weeks. Dear Prudence was one.

To get back to the OP, no definitely not a Beatles kids supergroup - terrible notion.

> Beats me where he gets it from....

He gets it from his father, who remains one of the greatest drummers ever. Most people who *** Ringo off do so out of peer pressure, demonstrating how little they understand rock 'n' roll music. You very rarely (if ever) hear a drummer *** Ring off...
