Hal Blaine, studio drummer on your favorite songs, dies at age 90

Hal Blaine, the super-session drummer from the '60's and '70's, has died at age 90. The list of number 1 Billboard hits he played on is stunning. RIP, and thanks for all the great sounds.

Sad news, tho he was getting on in the years. He may have passed away, yet his music will live on. :)

He was one of the best.....his work on Pet Sounds...exquisite. I’ll be listening to Pet Sounds later in his honor.

Traditional grip.
We’re running out of drummers using the traditional grip.
