My guests today is Australian drummer Greg Henson and his wife Fizz. Greg’s love of drums and “all things hittable” started at school and he has made his living playing drums and percussion ever since.His first musical was the drum chair in “Jesus Christ, Superstar” in 1972.

Fizz Henson, sister of actor and musician John Waters, was born in the UK and worked for many years at Thames Studios including work on The Benny Hill Show amongst others. Upon moving to Australia, Fizz and Greg met on gig once and the rest is history. Greg and Fizz share many gig stories together which you’ll get to hear today as they bounce of each other. After dinner and a couple of drinks, I just put the recorder in the middle of the table, and off we went. So let's gets into it. Ladies and gentleman, sit back and enjoy this conversation with Greg and Fizz Henson. This conversation was recorded 22/10/2020.
