    You can hear Ringo's influence.

    For someone pushing 65, he still has his speed. Looks like the years are finally catching up to his waistline, however. I noticed he also alternates between the matched and classic grip.

    I wish they would reform The Shaggs With this guy drumming. "My Pal Foot-Foot" would take on an even more transcendent feel.

    Man, I just can't get into drum solos; they simply don't work for me. I seldom hear anything musical in them. Now a drummer soloing against a band, or a percussionist, or something like that, has a much greater chance of being musical, and interesting to me.

    And I'm a drummer. Go figure.

    Totally agree, and I'm also a drummer(a not so good one, but that's neither here nor there). Very few have entertained me over the years and most are just the same old same old.

    I've always enjoyed CP's solos and find them to be a great mix of playing and theatrics...I think this one suffers from poor sound quality though (too bass-y and reverb-y) or it would sound much more impressive. For me, the most "musical" drum solo I have on record is Barriemore Barlow's Conundrum from Tull's Bursting Out album.

    I absolutely love Barrie's drum solo near the beginning of side 2 of Thick as a Brick as well...the only other prog studio album I can think of with as interesting a drum solo is Hymn to the Atman - and I'm not much of a Kansas fan
