They did make be-bop kits. Saw a used one in a drum shop once and it sounded very good.

to my knowledge they didn't make any drums during that time, the first drumset from remo was the pts or pre tuned system drums made during the early 80's?

That should be "he could've used whatever he wanted"....Louie passed away last year. He did play Rogers, Slingerland and Remo. He was good friends with Remo Belli and was one of the first endorsers of Remo drums. He was also a heck of a talent and a fine person from what I've heatd.

Its better to have people think you're an idiot, than to open your mouth and prove them wrong, unless you doubt yourself then speak away....

are those late 90s kits easy to come bye? I have for sure seen footage of Bellson in the 50s or 60s Remo set in a brass looking finish. I can not find them anymore however.

Can anyone confirm he did use Remo's before the 80s?? And Remo ever sold sets in the 50s/60s?
