Скачать или смотреть Slim Jim Phantom (Stray Cats) Drumstick Technique For Playing The Shuffle

In this clip, Slim Jim Phantom of The Stray Cats shares some helpful information to help drummers with drumstick techniques for playing shuffles.

Please check out episode 32 of Drum For The Song podcast featuring Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats and HeadCat for the full conversation.

In this episode we talk about the origins of the Stray Cats, with himself (drums), Brian Setzer (guitar and vocals) and Lee Rocker (upbright double bass) forming in high school and mastering their craft playing 5 nights a week in their home of Long Island, migrating over to England and eventually becoming part of the London scene, playing shows and getting noticed which resulted in getting signed and having Dave Edmunds record their debut album!

We also talked a lot about his great friendship with Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead who he also had a rockabilly side project band with called HeadCat with Danny B. Harvey. He describes how the band ended up forming after a recording an Elvis Presley track for a tribute album. He also explains how he and Lemmy became neighbours which helped their friendship grow over the years and how he was with Lemmy when he sadly passed away on 28th December 2015 at the age of 70.

We also discussed the band's choice of having a small drum kit at the front of the stage (rather than at the back) with Slim Jim Phantom playing whilst standing up and how difficult it was to adjust to playing that way and idea of having that extra spark and character is needed to become a star in the music industry.

We also talked about Slim Jim Phantom's favourite rockabilly drummers, drum injuries, living with actual cats, how loud Lemmy played onstage, his favourite and most memorable moments with Lemmy, his drum endorsements Gretsch, Zildjian, Vic Firth, re-enforcing a bass drum to enable him to stand on it, blues shuffle stick techniques, his upcoming rockabilly documentary and more.
