What?[edit]

What does this mean? :"in concert, he was a monster player, creating a huge sound upon which guitarist Robert Fripp, bassist Greg Lake and saxophonist Ian McDonald played their symphonic jazz-rock." i don't find this as very encyclopedic, opinions? 200.76.238.105 01:32, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Just removed it. 189.4.108.55 (talk) 21:36, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Double Bass Drums Usage[edit]

While Michael's work with KC included some of the most original, musical, and innovative use of double bass drums, he was hardly the first rock drummer to employ them. One of the first and most notable was Keith Moon in 1966 followed immediately by Ginger Baker, Jon Hiseman, and many others. Heck, even Gary Lewis has been pictured playing them with the Playboys. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MikeKolesar (talk • contribs) 19:55, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
