Austin Drummer Magazine
Posted by Chris Bennett on 18th Nov 2016
Austin drummer and teacher Nic Marcy has put together a nifty online magazine in PDF format that is well worth checking out. Regardless of music preference, you'll find something enjoyable. The interviews are well constructed, as are the transcriptions and the "concepts" articles.
And you whippersnappers better appreciate all the great info online these days! Back then we had to trudge through ice and snow to get to the music store to get the annual drum issue of Downbeat. There were no drum magazines. :) Oops. Off topic. But after all it is my blog...

I couldn't help waxing nostalgic at the Cozy Powell transcription of Jeff Beck's "Situation", a song my band used to play in the 19....'s - err, back in the day...
Marcy also has a wonderful book out - "The Pulse of Jazz" published by Alfred Music.
Highly recommended.
