Hey crew, I finally started playing drums for a band again and I've been learning a bunch of covers. Two of the tunes are by Bad Co., and I have to say- out of all the great songs we're doing, the SOUND of Simon Kirke's snare drum (as well as his playing) really stood out to me and is something I want to emulate.
So I started researching what he was using back then.
My first thought was that it HAD to be the old standard Ludwig metal. There isn't much info about Simon Kirke, but I found this great article about Hayman during my search:
http://www.vintagedrumguide.com/hayman_history.html
I thought it was a pretty interesting read. Not that I could afford one if I could find one.
Anyway, does anyone here have any other info re: the early drum sounds from Bad Co?
