Double Trouble

Back in 1964 (I think) Pete, John Van Kirk & I went up to Mannys Music in NYC. I bought my Fender Bassman IV guitar & Bassman amp & speaker cabinet, which I still have. Pete bought a 2nd bass drum. We lugged all that stuff into a taxi & through Grand Central Station & loaded it on the train. We got home & put if all together & Pete played like hed been banging on that double bass set, like hed been playing it for years. The best drummer I ever played with. RIP Pete. If theres a rock n roll heaven, you know theyve got a helleva band.
