That sounded real good.

Dropped his stick and never batted an eyelid or dropped a beat, what a great player. Just go and listen to Brian's immense playing on Gary Moore incredible album 'Back on the Streets', especially the intro to 'What Would You Rather Be or a Wasp'. Sheer musical drumming genius:-). For those about to rock, Sir Lord Downey... we most humbly salute you.

He's nowhere near as good as he used to be, but hey, that was 40 years ago, what're ya gonna do, guys getting old; he's doing amazing considering. Check out his drumming on Chinatown, Bad Reputation (the songs) and of course the L&D version of this song to get an idea of his best.

Tai Hayes

Awesome drum solo!

@edgroove7 They took the drum head back from you?

@edgroove7 Man honestly he's so sound really but I think he was having a hard time at the point he was at our gigs and he seemed shall I say Bitter? But when you have been in one of the best bands of all time and you end up playing lil clubs in dublin and living in very modest conditions I can imagine how that feels! But gent all the same! Sure were Irish arnt we!

Excuse the swearing but this still sounds just as fucking awesome like it did in the day....Shit-hot stuff...
