Friday Feature: Peter Erskine

Okay, time for a jazz artist who has changed the course of drumming history and contributed a great deal to the art.

Start here.

Then go here.

Then watch this.

There. You're welcome. Don't say I never gave ya nuthin'.

As an added bonus, check out this little jewel I stumbled across.

Happy drumming!

    My first Peter Erskine track, or at least the first one where I really noticed the drums and was blown away by it:

    I love the space he puts around each individual hit.
