The Old Neighborhood – Part IV – Falling Drums
This story is part of another one of my favorite memories from my youth. The back story: My Grandmother bought me a set of drums for my birthday when I was about 13-14. It was a sweet kit for the mid 70’s and I played it for hours on end. I guess it was 76 …
