Ludwig Drum Set Eagle Kit Last viewed: 2 weeks ago
Why Ludwig ? Why no standard sizes on this special kit ?? ;)
Wow, this thread is back from the dead......again! LoLoLoLo
Most likely because of the popularity of the power sizes at the time. Everyone was going that route. Even the jazzers of the era.......I've got a DVD of Sonny Rollins live @ the Montreal Jazz Festival, 1982 with Jack Dejohnette on drums, and his Sonors were all power sizes then.
It was the fashion of the time, I suppose......
So I stumbled upon this today...
Maybe right side up?
Just to bump this thread, I know Neil mentioned the Buddy Holly documentary. Here's Jerry Allison playing the Ludwig eagle kit at 4:25.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDD3y7qXhdI&feature=relatedBTW, if anybody has one the these sets and wants to sell it, please contact me.Thanks

Back in 2007 I got to play with Sonny West (wrote "Rave On" & "Oh Boy") at the Clovis Music Festival & went on the Petty Studio tour, met Tommy Allsup (drinkin' beer with him after the show :) ), the Tolletts (sang backup on "That'll Be the Day" & others) & Peggy Sue, sweet old lady now, about 5 foot nothin' :D
It was an awesome experience to be there & around the people who were part of the birth of rock 'n' roll.
What surprised me was I noticed the hotel was full of Brits, turns out he's a musical hero across the pond & still has a substantial following there (yes, I know about the Beatles coming up with their name as a tribute to the Crickets) :D
Here's another video with a kit, The Babys... [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-c8X52Qg4o"]THE BABYS - Isn't It Time - John Waite - YouTube[/ame]
