Agreed! I will never for the life of me understand how TP could have preferred the boring, metronome style drumming of Steve Ferrone to that of Stan. Ferrone ruins so many great TP songs for me... dum, dum, thump, dum, dum, thump.

hodgo said:

I'm really enjoying this set a lot, including the McGuinn & John Lee Hooker sets, but when it comes to Steve Ferrone I agree with you whole heartedly. He has such a boring, repetitive drumming style, dum, dum, thump, unfortunately that's what TP preferred yet Stan would have added so much more to these songs.

hodgo said:

A better drummer would helped more than anything else. Dum, dum, thump gets a little too repetative and boring after more than a couple of songs.

He’s had quite a career for someone you appear to think is a lousy drummer. Steve Ferrone - Wikipedia

I agree Steve is a great drummer.Different to Stan.If anything he has a bigger range than Stan although both are mighty.

MechanicalAnimal6 said:

plus Steve was a team player and didn't throw tantrums and fits like Stan did.....
i thought Steve was more than fine in Tom Petty's band.

hodgo said:

I never said he wasn't a capable drummer, he's definitely that, boring but capable.

Just because I'm not a drummer myself doesn't mean I can't tell the difference between a capable and more interesting drummer.

Aggie57 said:

He drummed on Clapton's Unplugged and George Harrison's Live in Japan albums. He's not shabby.

Hoodo Man said:

pretty sure he was on Claptons 24 Nights live from the Royal Albert Hall as well

hodgo said:

I remember at the time Ferrone wasn't very happy that for the Blues Nights, EC replaced him with Jamie Oldaker, EC quite wisely knew who the better blues drummer would be.

J_D__ said:

He’s a serviceable drummer much like Kenney Jones later in his career.

hodgo said:

I actually think Kenney, was/is a much more interesting drummer throughout his whole career than Steve Ferrone.

	Ask any musician/band about STeVE. Many of them would answer: Who the hell are them?

Their judgement is more than a little sus.

Might change his tune if he finds out.
	I don't like that album. I have the LP and CD and have never been able to hear the attraction.

Unfortunately it is not possible to have a grown up discussion on this forum due to the entrenched views of some members from either side of the argument.

All discussion of such matters will cease forthwith.

We do not shut threads down without good reason, so do not try to restart a problem thread that has been shut down by the moderation team.

In future if a thread is shut down you can always contact the moderation team to ask why the thread was shut down. Instead of undermining the moderation team which is highly disrespectful, I suggest in the future you reach out to a moderator and ask if it would be possible to start again, which in this case the answer would be an emphatic no!

Fuck, he meenz bizness now:

Moderator Note:

"Aa few pages back I asked for members to stop criticising others for having a different point of view to their own. I also stated that anyone who ignored that request would be thread banned and warned. On this occasion I will not be doing either of those things, but be warned this is the final polite request I shall make. If you or anyone else from this point forward, decides to criticise or disrespect the opinion of others, you will be removed from the thread and warned."
