Mark J. Butler (2006): “Unlocking the Groove. Rhythm, Meter, and Musical Design in Electronic Dance Music”. s. 82. [Alan] Schwartzberg, who played for everyone from to Judy Collins and James Brown – sometimes in one day – pays tribute clearly to the trendsetting work of MFSB drummer Earl Young in such up-tempo Philly classics as Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes’ “.” But Schwartzberg got most of the notice for developing disco’s characteristic sound: a driving, open, high-hat cymbal. He often fielded calls from producers and drummers for step-by-step instructions in disco technique: “It sounds like it’s just ‘shh, shh,’ but you’re actually playing [the cymbal] double-time and opening the high-hat on the ‘and,’” he explained to them.
