Steve Gadd
from Inside MusiCast Hosted by Rick Such
As one of the most influential drummers of all time, Steve Gadd set a new standard in contemporary drumming techniques and performance, and for years everyone has tried to play like him. His work is unavoidably recognizable, from the military, cadence-like shuffle intro on Paul Simon’s “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover”, to arguably one of the finest drum solos ever recorded on the title track from Steely Dan’s “Aja”, to his current touring gigs with James Taylor and Eric Clapton – Steve has a way of leaving his rhythmic stamp on most every track that he’s performed on over the past five decades. It’s good to know the native New Yorker is healthy and still going strong...and he’s here today to chat with us. Inside MusicCast is pleased to welcome the legendary Steve Gadd.
