34 years ago the drumming world lost one of the best to ever do it. Larrie Londin was a force of nature behind a drum kit, and he was one of my greatest influences growing up (If you couldn't tell by the Hawaiian shirt in my profile picture lol) . He could play just about every kind of music and play it like it was supposed to be played. If you think he was just a country drummer, think again. From Motown, to Elvis, to Reba to Journey and everything in between. Go and listen to Steve Perry's Street Talk album or Journey's Raised on Radio. Absolutely incredible. I had the absolute pleasure of knowing him and first met him when he was in Houston working on a project with Rosanne Cash and Rodney Crowell back in the 80's. He was a wonderful human being and always had time to answer questions from an aspiring young kid. He was an innovator and one of the first to play DDrums. He had some great stories too. Gone but never forgotten. Another drumming giant gone way too soon. I miss you Larrie, but I still listen to you almost everyday.
