Founder Ronald Spagnardi 1943–2003 mong my responsibilities each month at AModern Drummer is writing un-bylined parts President/CEO Isabel Spagnardi of the magazine—captions, feature deks, cover Senior Vice President Lori Spagnardi heads, that sort of thing. This month, as I was Publisher David Frangioni putting together the contents page, I noticed Vice President Kevin W. Kearns something interesting: there were no “band” drummers in the features section, meaning, no Associate Publisher Tracy A. Kearns one whose playing career revolved solely around Advertising Director Bob Berenson their work with one group or instrumentalist, or Jim Esposito Advertising Assistant LaShanda Gibson within one genre. It got me thinking about all the other drummers whose success has hinged on their ability to contribute in a Senior Art Director Scott G. Bienstock multitude of settings, or to a mix of styles, and how and why they cultivated Editorial Director Adam J. Budofsky that ability. Managing Editor Michael Dawson Over the years you’ve no doubt read many a pro drummer or MD Editor at Large Billy Amendola columnist espouse the importance of learning as wide a range of styles as possible. Even for players who largely came to prominence with one act, immersing themselves in multiple genres reaped big rewards. Think about, THE MD PRO PANEL/ADVISORY BOARD: Chris Adler, Kenny Aronoff, Eddie say, Danny Seraphine with Chicago, or Stewart Copeland with the Police, or Bayers, Gregg Bissonette, Jason Bittner, Bill Bruford, Will Calhoun, Terri Lyne Danny Carey with Tool. Carrington, Matt Chamberlain, Jeff Davis, Peter Erskine, Daniel Glass, Benny It seems unlikely that any of these drummers explicitly plotted their Greb, Matt Halpern, Horacio Hernandez, Gerald Heyward, Taku Hirano, Susie Ibarra, Jim Keltner, Paul Leim, Peter Magadini, George Marsh, Pat Mastelotto, particular road to stardom. Did Seraphine shed big band just so he could Allison Miller, Rod Morgenstein, Andy Newmark, Stephen Perkins, Dafnis join a “horn band” like Chicago? Nah, rock bands with horn sections didn’t Prieto, Rich Redmond, Brian Reitzell, Jim Riley, Antonio Sanchez, Gil Sharone, exist when Danny was young. Did Copeland imagine making history by Chad Smith, Steve Smith, Todd Sucherman, Billy Ward, Kenny mashing together punk rock and reggae music? Hard to imagine—punk Washington, Dave Weckl, Paul Wertico and reggae didn’t develop until well after Stewart fi rst picked up the sticks. How about Danny Carey and Tool? Well, I don’t think any of us saw his style CONTRIBUTING WRITERS: SUBSCRIPTIONS: coming.
