Loved his "Retaliation" stuff-way back in the day!
Thought I already posted him or did I misspell?
Here it is slinglander...great stuff!
I think you're right-I went with J. Hiseman...
It was great to see him a few years ago touring with Eric Burdon (also Dave Meros from Spock's Beard on bass). Had a nice chat after the show and he autographed all my Retaliation cds!

Also, loved all of his stuff with Frank Zappa ...
The sweet fill he does right after the last verse is my all time favourite, I love playing this song live

Man that Modern Times record brings back memories. Still have it on vinyl. Always liked the sound of the drums on that record kind of like a hollow sound like he was in a big room with not much sound proofing
I went to the same high school "La Sierra" as guitarist Craig Chaquico. It closed in 1983 after my junior year.

Back in the '80's I don't think there was anyone hotter than Lita Ford.

Rick, what does Lita Ford have to do with Aynsley Dunbar in this thread???
Ansley Dunbar, wow! He is a huge talent. He can grove, has monster chops and the good sense to know when to use them.

"I wish that my playing reminded people of Steve Gadd. But they seem to confuse me with his little known cousin... E."
"Snare drums happen."
