My dad met Gene Krupa years ago. My father played the trumpet and loved the big band stuff. He was so taken buy Gene that he named my older brother after the man. I ended up staying with the drums and I am named after Glen Cambell.
This ^^^^^ is SERIOUSLY FUNNY! "I ended up staying with the drums and I am named after Glen Campbell. " The "frown face" just makes it...
Anyway... I believe "Sing Sing Sing" had more to do with me taking up drumming than even Ringo did. Just an unbelievably fantastic composition from any standpoint. The feel and dynamics if the drumming should be studied by anyone playing in any generation...
Compliments and respect to Gene Krupa for sure...
