The Camco kit to stage left impressed me when I saw it with Leon Russell in the early '70s. I believe it was Jim Gordon on drums alone with L Russell.
A couple of weeks later, I passed by a music store that I passed daily but happened to (for the first time) look at the window. Lo and behold, an identical kit shone forth.........bat turn, still play the kit.
Here's the inspiration. Pay no attention to all the Hippies.
Nice :cool:
You just caused me to watch like 4 Joe Cocker videos.
Good inspiration. :cool:
What a great performance and song. Love JC.
What's he up to these days I wonder?
He's still touring some and released another album last November.
Anyone know what brand model&sizes both Jim Gordon &Jim Keltner used playing with Joe Cocker's 'Mad Dogs&Englishman" Tour interms of cymbals drums heads&sticks?.
Some nice Picking Here... Note at about 6 minutes in, Clapton does a nice Lay Down Sally... the drummer ?? using an unusual combo
( Vintage Premier Snare coupled with a Trixon BD) ...
Cheers
John

John, it must have been a real mongrel kit. The rack tom is a keystone sky blue pearl Ludwig.

Nah... Three songs...Three drummers... Three separate Kits...
Cheers
Chuck Blackwell, Keltner and Gordon.
Great and shambolic band.
Cocker had some great rhythm sections.
