The History of Working Drummers pt 2: 1960 - Today with Dr. Matt Brennan

(You do not need to have listened to part 1 to enjoy this episode) Part 2 covers the role of working drummers starting in the 1960's with session drummers, then Rock and Roll superstar's, through the 80's monster drumsets and up to modern times. Matt is a brilliant historian and educator, and he brings us a very fun and relaxed conversation about this amazing history of how drummers survived and worked throughout history. We cover interesting bits such as why you cant copyright a drum beat, why you drummers rarely get as much writing credits as other musicians, and how things slowly changed over time. We are discussing chapter 5 of Matts book "Kick It: A Social History of the Drum Kit".

Part 1 is episode 36, go back and check it out if you haven't listened yet. You will love it!
