"The Ze Suicide Diaries - Part 9! MAKING KINDER-EGG TOYS WITH TINA TURNER – AND OTHER TALL STORIES
Ex-UK Subs drummer Stevie Ze Suicide is now forging a career as a sleaze/glam frontman. Here`s the ninth – and sadly final – in an irregular series of Ze Suicide Diaries…
Right, let`s talk about drummers. Who are your favourites? I am often asked who are mine and who have been of particular influence. I always put Buddy Rich top yet there are so many great players. Check out Deep Purple`s Ian Paice on the intro to Firebal`. Don`t forget it was a single bass drum pedal he used – no cheating in those days, just rock solid drums at lightning speed. Fantastic stuff!
Also Charlie Watts gets the feel so spot-on for Honky Tonk Woman, plus Slade`s Don Powell on everything they recorded. Then there`s the mighty Keith Moon – my fave drum tracks are Won`t Get Fooled Again, My Generation and, oh yeah, the entire Live At Leeds album.
These are life-changing moments in rock history for me. Let us know your views on great drummers?
...
You know, I once thought it was bloody weird that last night`s spag bol stains had suddenly disappeared from down the front of my favourite Slade tee shirt – was this me on the brink? No, it was okay, I had it on inside-out by mistake.
Yours sincerely,
Stevie Ze Suicide, `The King Of Noize`"
