John Marshall also drums on the Volker Kriegel albums "Inside: Missing Link" (1972) and "Lift" (1973), which I both highly recommend. here a track from each album: |

^^Thanks very much for those links-I have those recordings, but had not realized that Marshall was on them. That is awesome!

^ I think he may also have played on the Keith Emerson solo record Honky Tonk Train Blues but I'm unable to corroborate that annoyingly. A lot of uncredited musicians were used during ELP's Works period.

Many of the prog-related drummers of that era were also fine!
Ian Paice (Deep Purple), Roger Taylor-Meadows (Queen), John Bonham (Led Zeppelin), Bobby Caldwell (Captain Beyond), and Lee Keerslake (Uriah Heep) were all excellent!

The drummers on Honky (just one word) were Frank Scully and Neil Symonette.

Sorry for the bad joke... but "Classic Era" Prog Drummer must be:
... Chester Thompson ! I'm not kidding, it really IS Chester Thompson on drums for this Era album.

Emerson also had a hit with his cover of the Meade Lux Lewis song Honky Train Blues, performed here with Oscar Peterson (Carl Palmer on drums for Keith but he didn't play on the record) |
