This is some of his gold records. Impressive huh?!
Whats crazy is this is only a portion of this drummer's accomplishments. He actually has 12 platinum and 15 gold records to his credit. Whats even CRAZIER are the artists he has played with:
Elton John
Aretha Franklin
The Jacksons!!!!
The Temptations
Lou Rawls
and so on and so on.......
He even has some drum heads on his walls signed by all 5 Jacksons, Elton John, and Lou Rawls. So Cool!
Jess and I went to high school with his son and had the honor of taking some professional pictures of him to use for his marketing material for an upcoming promotional event. We had a blast hanging out at his awesome studio and we even got a private concert. Well, ok it was a very mini drum session, but it was AWESOME!
And, finally if you need a really last minute cool christmas gift this is a coffee table book that just came out featuring drummers from all over the world. Charles was featured as one of the 500 drummers.
Thanks Charles for sharing so much of your history and talent with us we had a blast!
