Carl Palmer Pick

I was lucky enough to hang out with Carl Palmer a few times. Nice guy and big ego (deservedly so). He is a great drummer. He's been in a couple of great bands with virtuoso's and has played with some cool people. This pick takes some of my favorite moments of mine about him. Solo and even going back pre-ELP. I through in a few guest spots where I think he shined and came up with this compilation of Palmer showing why he deserves to have such a big ego. If there are some moments of his that I skipped, make sure you mention them in the comments. Over the next couple of days, I will do the same for the E and the L. Notice that over the three CD's I repeat only one ELP track, once. I will continue after Groundhog's Day.

Drums

Continuing on the Instruments series, here's the Drums one. Drum solos, just great drum parts, these songs tend to be a little longer, so less songs. Some of the best drum songs are in my Drum playlist pick. You may disagree with a couple, but the rest are arguably the best of all time, not just my pick. If you do have an argument for another track to be here instead, I would be happy to listen to it and give it a chance. Maybe for volume 2,if I get enough suggestions. By the way, do you recognize the drum kit on the cover?
