drumno5 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 There's a recent thread dealing with the "best music arrangers of all time," which for the most part has generated postings regarding horn arrangers. How about the drum guys? With apologies to anyone whom I have overlooked (and I know there are more than a few great ones out there), here's a list of 10 heavyweights to get things started: Dennis Delucia Tom Float Thom Hannum Ralph Hardimon Marty Hurley Larry McCormick Charlie Poole Fred Sanford Jerry Schellmar Bobby Thompson Who are your favorites? regards, Fred O.
