all in all i dislike it, due to execution, but it's an interesting composition.

May go great with smoked meat and breakfast food. Hickory is a classic tree and flavor profile in the U.S., but because of a tree disease in the 19th century a lot of them died off. Hopefully they're making a comeback.
And YES, apple cider donuts, wouldn't be a NY market without those!

Zinn The Mood:
The song is going out over a two-chord progression. Which is *exactly* the place that a drummer seeks to play (or is specifically asked to) or says something interesting. In this case, being slightly trippy, it may have called for a little more Ringo “A Day In The Life” simple kind of stuff.
But as a drummer I’m not that bothered by it. Except for maybe that fast single stroke roll around the set that could be seen as slightly out of place.
Overall it’s not that problematic, if at all. The criticism was a bit unnecessarily harsh.
Your show today, however, has been excellent though, thanks!

Drummers quips. (seems to be agitating to more than a mere simmer lately). However, I’ve heard less polite feelings expressed via fun music radio show “Sound Opinions” outta Chicago. One of the drummer hosts detests over-drummers (Keith Moon oft sited)
Personally, as a fellow amateur drummer, I adore all things “too drummy”. K.Moon, John ‘drumbo’ French, Jody Stephens (Big Star), XTC, that PiL Flowers of Romance album ! , etc etc.
ps: i too was quite impressed with Alice de Buhr when I went down the rabbit-hole with the FANNY back catalog a few years ago ! Whew (those live tv appearances / broadcasts !) … GO !

Beyond that - Drumming is part of the overall Arrangement & Expression like every other Instrument &/or Voice. It's no less broad than that... So - there's Ensemble playing in that ...on both counts (Time Keeping & Accents alike...) - how players jive with each other. There's no accounting for 'Chemistry' like that... Sometimes truly Great Players don't work well together. Of course there are Pros who are super Capable & Reliable - & we exalt them for that.
KeithMoon - whatever his musical &/or personal liabilities - blew a giant hole in what was expected or even imagined in Rawk Drumming in the mid1960s - just as Townshend blew a hole in all our eardrums with the first Marshall stacks... That makes him one of the most important Players ever. Tragically - the same personal attributes that made him so dynamic in this regard made him increasingly unreliable - which is awful in yer Rhythm Section. & also created a lot of stress for people who cared about him - & took his life - if not @ 27 then soon enuff.

He had "Uncle Keith" teach Zak how to drum, and it's good that someone has preserved Moonie's technique. But Ringo didn't teach him his own technique? Well, if his steadiness is his best virtue, you can't really 'teach' that.

I like the "Day in the Life" sessions, where you hear his sound evolving with the song; at first, he plays a textbook sort of fill to go with the vocals. Then he starts to add 'accents' and emphasize the parts of the song as the form becomes clearer and a concept develops.
Inversely, "I Can't Explain" has been noted as being a regular sort of song that Moonie made spectacular, by throwing the textbook away and going in a wild, unexpected direction.

& if you have enuff of that - finding the Energy & Ability to in fact Say It is one's next difficulty ...not all the ways of getting there are always healthy or constructive - much less predictable...

I was being flippant. Sometimes I notice drumming.
I noticed Gene Krupa's propulsive drumming in Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing).
I noticed Meg White's primal and pure drumming.
And I sometimes notice Andrew Cyrille's drumming.
Matt from Springfield:
I don't mind that this jazz got mixed in the telepod with me...
Thanks for the location reference, @Ken!

But I just don't seem to be built to tune into drumming and notice it consciously, unless something so unusual is going on there that I have no choice but to notice.
I'm sure it affects my overall enjoyment of the music, but drumming isn't something I usually HEAR consciously.
