R.I.P. Tom... you'll sadly be missed. Only just half a year later and a massive heart attack took from us such a talented man who moved so many people over many years with his great songs. No to mention that he was a superb rhythm guitar player with a unique feel all his own. But I do like Steve's playing very much too.

[@thescatman5029]

Steve Ferrone is THE best combination of syncopation and four on the floor EVER! Those Chaka albums Chaka, Naughty and Whatcha Gonna Do For Me are classics, and shows Ferrone at his best!

[@gretschdrumsusa]

Indeed.

Immense Steve Ferrone!!!!! He played on one of the most funk record of all times : GLOW BY RICK JAMES! One of the best sounding drum I have ever listen to!

I got chills watching this video as my very first drum kit was a Gretsch in the EXACT same colors and paint scheme. Except mine was from the 40's or 50's from what I was told. No vent hole in the toms, round badge (no hole), hoop clamp tom mount, hoop clamp bass drum spurs. Watching this unboxing makes we want to go back! I'd love to get a kit like this AGAIN but with the sizes I like 26, 13, 16, 18. Unfortunately, life is funny and the cost is out of reach... for now. ;) One day maybe again.

[@pbldrum]

Saw Steve with Clapton a few times. We met him backstage at Great Woods in Mansfield Ma cause my buddy was the Sabian rep. A real gentleman. He always had a huge smile on his face. Hell, he got to play alongside Nathan East. Who wouldn't be smiling?!

He may be with Gretsch, but his Pearl Signature Snare is a monster. As a session player over the years I’ve used it on countless tracks. It’s so good I’ve been scolded by engineers when trying to swap it out for something else. 😂

Anybody know what kind of wood those drums are? - (Maple - Mahogany - ?) What about the snare ? It has the crisp, high-pitch of a metal snare ??? - Thanks in advance! - - I just did a little Googling and it looks like they are Maple and interestingly the snare is brass (This assumes that this is a Gretch BroadKaster set - ??)

brian boyd Yeah this finish or finishes were big in I think the 50's or 60's. I have a Slingerland snare in a brown/gold duco finish. They are making a come back a bit but yeah not for everyone of course I just happen to like the finish.
