The great drummer and educator Ted Reed died. He was the auther of "Syncopation" a MUST STUDY kind of book that trenscended musical type or style. He also wrote a fill ins and turn arounds book as well as a very decent latin dance book for set. What I loved about his writing was the spartan style and non cluttered look to his exercises.
On the cover of the Syncopation book, by the way, the snare drum and stand were made by Billy Gladstone. The stand must have wieghed 25 pounds!
Ted will Be missed
