Just wondering how many Bobby Chouinard fans there are out there? I was a HUGE fan of his way back in the early 80s, when he was tearing up the music scene & MTV, as part of the Billy Squier band. I was lucky enough to catch him perform a couple of times when he played Philadelphia. A real heavy hitter, who absolutely pounded away on his Ludwig drum kit and Paiste cymbals, leaving us some memorable beats & fills to forever enjoy. No doubt I know where my love for BIG drums & LARGE-sized cymbals comes from, thanks' to Bobby of course.
His nephew Roger penned a wonderful tribute book to him a while back that is full of many great photos & commentaries from fellow musicians titled The Story of Bobby Chouinard: Drummer Extraordinaire. It is a great book, that any drummer who likes to read should have in their collection.
