Hello all!
There are(were?) two phenomenal drummers that, for the life of me can't remember their names. Back in 89' A very young drummer was performing a duel with Louie Bellson with the North Western Jazz Ensemble : Vern Spiegle or something similar? Also, back in the early nighties, a very popular big band jazz drummer, who always seemed to be playing with various artists on PBS. He was easy to remember mainly for two reasons: the first His playing-frightening and second- His girth. I mean this cat was huge yet so nimble. Any info as to their fate or current status is much appreciated! Thanks, Jeff
