here is an interesting conversation about drummers playing 4 on the floor
the drummers involved in the discussion are
Elvin Jones
Joe Morello
Mel Lewis
Cozy Cole
Shelly Manne
Nick Ceroli
Art Blakey
Donald Dean
Tony Williams
and for the record I agree with everything Tony says ..... while reading this it sounds a bit to me like most of those guys are in the dark ages and Tony is living in the future
amd Elvin probably puts it best when he says ...
" Learn how to play the bass drum! Everything that is included in the drumset is there for a purpose and should be learned. Whether you use it consistently or not, you should know how to use it."
