Aw thanks Sonia, you're too kind!  To answer your question, yes always recorded the drums in a studio - that particular song was recorded live at radio 1's Abbey Road studio in 1987 along with 3 others (also on youtube). It would be difficult to get a good recorded drum sound at home. Even people who have their own home studio will often go to a pro studio to record the drums and do the rest at home.

Have to agree that the Collins/Thompson duo is a perfect match of gifted stickmen.  Their combined work on the "In the Cage" medley off Three Sides Live still gives me chills.

Nightfly wrote: ^ Thanks again Sonia.  Another factor that makes a big difference to the drum sound besides the way you mic it up is the general ambience of the room. The perfect example of that is John Bonham's drum sound on When The Levee Breaks by Led Zeppelin, which the story goes was recorded by a single mic hanging from the ceiling in the main hall at Headley grange. If you type in Fast Kutz on Youtube it'll bring up quite a few more videos and songs including some clips someone has put up from last years Brofest which we headlined on the Saturday night - first gig that band had done for 26 years....lol. Sound quality's not great though as it looks like it's Iphone recorded. Thanks again for your interest

Since I first heard Bruford only four other drummers have ever "wowed" me: 

Carmen Appice. Vanilla Fudge is a guilty pleasure of mine.

Right now forget the moozik genre, rock metal or not or yes or maybe or whatever flavor of the week to those who are indecisive hihihi  etc, forget all inc. riffs and vocals, ..... now listen/focus on those double kickin' whooohaaaaaaaaaaaaaa drums and tums (also part of drums hihihi) and that fantastic exciting rhythmic perfect timing heavy bottom end and fantastic snare drum! wow it's fast too you almost miss the drum rolls a few times hahaha hajhaha!!! This was aaah awesome really!  loved it and had an amazing time listening to this track :) this organic deep exciting ultimate while sounding effortless drumming is very rare and when you get to hear it, you'll know it and go wow just like me xxxxxxxx I love and enjoy hreat moozik so much <3

Thanks Angelo, 28 years ago to be precise.  feeling old now. I meant almost 30, indeed. Keep making that mistake of being stuck in the previous decade  Angelo, you are very naughty, David Bowie is the sexiest man alive and age does not matter infact makes HIM more experienced and interesting Ok now you best go record an album and release it before you get to Bowie's age  hihihihi That is me being snotty lol pay no attention to what I said, I am still p**sed off at Iman tho' for stealing Bowie from me. Bah who does she think she is, only because she is hot and legs that go for miles long umhpf that's obnoxious  this said, they have been happily married since forever btw so long I stopped counting lol   P.S. Dit is voor jou, Angelo "Jij bent groot, ik ben klein, da's niet eerlijk  "  hugs!
