Ace. 1995.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still a terrific drummer., May 19, 2002

By	"lasvegashq" (Hollywood, California United States) - See all my reviews

I admit it. I am old enough to remember Sandy Nelson from the first time around, in the early 60s. I practically wore out his big hit 45 TEEN BEAT when I was a disc jockey in Cleveland, Ohio. Unlike many drummers of the era, Sandy had a real sense of the relative importance of his drums to the overall music. He didn't just do solo work. He incorporated his stick work into the song itself, never replacing the other musicians.
This CD is a wonderful compilation of one of the great (dare I say, unsung) drummers of our generation.
