Percussion Discussion - Episode 67 - Ian Mosley

Joining me today is the fabulous british drummer Ian Mosley, Ian has been playing for legendary british band Marillion since 1984!

 Join Ian and myself as we talk about his incredible career, from having a great teacher at school, through to working at the legendary drum shop - Drum City, where Ian would ask famous visiting drummers to show him something that he could play, and how he was once required to go to Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club to repair Buddy Rich's drum kit!!

 We also talk how he got a job playing in the West End as a teenager playing in Hair with very little rehearsal, we also talk about his time playing for former Genesis guitarist Steve Hackett and of course how he got the Marillion gig.

 We had to talk about Ian's recent move to British Drum Co and the wonderful drum kit they have provided for him that will be used on the forthcoming tour, speaking of the tour, we talk about the Marillion fans, arguably the best most loyal fans in the world!

It was a huge pleasure chatting to Ian, I have been a fan of his magnificent drumming for a long time - Thank you for giving your time so generously.

Many thanks to our mutual pal Bill Sanders for putting us both in touch.
