On Drums - Stewart Copeland (TV series)

[jet_noise]

Lot to enjoy here.
Knowledgeable and enthusiastic (beyond being American ) presenter.
Range of articulate (by absolute terms, let alone drummers) guests.
Sheila E, phwoar.

Definitely be watching next week.

Yes a decent programme but it didn't go nearly as far as Sky Arts 6 hours of "The Art Of Drumming"

Next week its Tina Weymouth on Bass.

Any chance of a clue as to where this can be watched?

Was on BBC4 so Iplayer or maybe there's a repeat.

gmaz - 6hrs. Just on drumming. A step too far for me

I watched apprehensively - drum solos, gawd the bane of any gig years back unless it was someone like Jon Hiseman, Bonham, Baker, even Mick Fleetwood although he rarely did them (he is on current US Canada tour and hmm, no, especially when he gets his bongos out!) and a few others. The rest, everyone headed for the bar.
However, I thought it was really good.
Loved seeing John Densmore (The Doors) still at it - must me getting on mid 70s now. Copeland really was infectious throughout.

I kept thinking 'Sting' was going to appear somewhere, thankfully not!

Enjoyed the 'Drums' episode, but I couldn't believe they could do a programme on the bass guitar without even mentioning Mark King... too heavily American biased for a BBC production.
