[kj] BPF - "THE LEAST GOOD DRUMMER THEY HAD"

[Brendan Quinn]

The original statement in this thread…disagreed. That strikes me as one of
those points-scoring wanky comments where someone is trying to sound like
they know what they’re on about by making an outrageous comment but
delivering it way more authoritatively than it deserves.

 

At least he said “I think”. Entitled to his own opinion. But, just,
incredibly wrong. Hard-to-understand, “WHAT YOU TALKING ‘BOUT WILLIS” wrong…

I'd suspect that whoever wrote that didn't see KJ live with Big Paul.

And probably doesn't realise what an enormous contribution (probably the
biggest of the founding members, IMHO) the man made to the ethos and ideas
of KJ.

He was also the only person who could keep Jaz's silliness in check.

I'm not a musician or at all musically knowledgeable, so can't really
comment authoritatively on the relative technical merits of KJ's drummers,
but to me that pales in comparison with the points above.

"I think he's the least good drummer they had. It was never more apparent
than when they brought in Atkins on Extremities. Everyone else they've
employed, even the sterile drummer on Outside the Gates, is preferred to Big
Paul."

 

read this surprising statement on the net today - discuss
