This 248 page book is an exciting documentation of the innovative
period of the 60s and 70s when the rhythm of popular music was
changed forever. Featured here are biographies, interviews,
discographies and rare archival photos of more than 20 great
drummers of R&B, funk and soul, including the drummers of James
Brown, Earth, Wind and Fire, Otis Redding and Sly and the Family
Stone. The true originators of the modern hip-hop beats tell their
stories, and the history of the funk comes to life. Appropriate for
music fans of all kinds, and all drummers: beginners thru advanced.
