Andy's Drumming Career

Back to Andy's World

To anyone who knows me playing the drums was one of my greatest passions. I have managed to locate a few photos, and have posted those, and some music I have recorded with some special friends over the years. My drumming influences were/are Phil Collins, Neil Peart, Carl Palmer, Carmine Appice and Alan White. I recall when I was starting out playing, I used to practice 3 hours each night, and drove my parents so crazy that they used to run out of the house as soon as I got home! I hope you enjoy these photos and songs as much as I did re living the fun of these old days!

In between gig's with Tangent and playing with John Riolo, I joined a band called T'Pau. No not the famous T'Pau, the one that, of course, never went anywhere. I remember the lead guitarists name was Ernie and the signers name Nikki. Other than that, I remember only recording in a professional studio this one and only time in my life. What an experience!
