Tom Rainey

I have two Cds with tom on them, one from Brad Shepik and another from Tim Berne, and I love the way this guy plays. But also, I really like the way he tunes his drums. Its really unique and raw and I really dig that about his playing. ANyone else check him out?

Yes, I live near NYC and m\have caught him a few times. He is one of the most amazingly acomplished drummer /musicians out there. I am 41 and am guess what you could say an advanced player but when I saw him with Tim Berne, there were times that I didn't know what the hell he was playing.. Tom is one of the unrecognized giants. The guy can play anything technically and more importantly musically. You can't say that about the Thomas Langs and the rest of these super heavy weight drum clinicians that are out there..You tube search for him. There are some duos with him and Tim on there that are smoking!
