Isn't it Time - The Babys (Drum Cover)

This is a deceptively simple late 70s songs. The parts are straightforward but with a few twists. I think this is what makes these old songs so great. They are not perfect, but have these moments of greatness with little simple twists like the final hit into each section or the fill in the middle of the verse. Plus this song has a great hook! I hope you enjoy!

[@onlygospelmusic7806]

nice sound, what microphones do you use?

[@earldrum]

That’s a great question .... this is a hodgepodge of different mics on this kit. The OHs are 2 Octavia MK012, AKG D112e on the kick, SM57 on the snare, some AT drum kit mics on most of the toms and AT Pro 25 on the large toms
