WHO AM I ?

I started playing in the days of Motown. I shared a kit as i could not afford my own, bless my mom who helped out. I've played all kinds of music in all kinds of bands. I played rock for years with nearly every band in Brum. I met this fella' called 'Geeza' who got me into Blues he got me to join the 58 Deluxe and then The Pheonix Blues Band( after all that rock i was a bad blues player...shuffle whats that?). After the Pheonix Blues Band i joined Dave Hadley in the DT'S, i remember Daves face when i brought my 22 shell kit along to his studio .........i still play it all ....but in smaller combinations.......JIM ALLDER.

THIS IS REBEL RED OR ROB TO US (A MALE STRIPPER) WHAT A GREAT GUY WITH MARTIN OUR KEYBOARD PLAYER FROM ICE HOUSE STUDIOS AT STOURBRIDGE.....MIXING OUR HARD WORK WITH THE REBEL BAND

I HAVE PLAYED IN MANY PLACES AND WITH MANY PEOPLE OVER THE YEARS....HOW I MANAGED TO PLAY THIS LOT I'LL NEVER KNOW!

I HAD SO LITTLE SPACE I HAD TO STACK MY KIT BUT EVERY DRUM HAD ITS USE SO CUTTING DOWN WASNT AN OPTION.

WHEN I BROKE MY LEG ABOUT 93' IT PUT PAID TO MY DOUBLE BASS DRUM WORK AS I FOUND IT HARD TO KEEP IN TIME HAVING A LEG SHORTER THAN THE OTHER...SO I HAD TO LEARN FASTER FOOTWORK WITH ONE LEG
