Alan White's adaptability - 675

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius It's already been 3 years since Alan White died. To mark the sad anniversary, Mark and I discussed the iconic drummer's adaptability this week. We each chose 3 different examples of his playing to highlight different aspects of his musical character. In addition, 4 YMP Patrons gave us comments to read out - Jon Pickles, Ronnie Neeley, Doug Curran, and Fred Barringer. It was very enjoyable to think about Alan but also, of course, a somewhat mournful process. Do add your own memories of Alan to the show notes for this week. Which songs did we choose? Was Alan 'just' a drummer? What were Alan's special skills?
