Comment:

Bobby Graham? Never heard of him.

After stumbling upon his web site, I learned that Bobby Graham was the premier session drummer in London during the Beat Boom. A quick look at his partial discography revealed plenty of Beat, Pop, and Freakbeat favorites. He spent time in The Outlaws, Joe Meek's house band, then joined the session circuit along with Jimmy Page and Big Jim Sullivan. Page's fingerprints are all over this mix, with many of the tracks coming from the two-volume Session Man CDs.

I can't really comment on Bobby Graham's drumming technique, except to say that it seems to fit the bill, whether it's backing a folky Peter & Gordon ditty or a Kinks rave-up. (No apologies for including three Kinks tracks!) What I find interesting is that he played with such a diverse cast of musicians in such a short period of time.

Bobby Graham? Yeah, he's great!
