As I combed through the memorabilia looking for photos of my 1967 Ludwig black oyster pearl kit in action, I came across these relics from my days as drummer in Homestead modern country and bluegrass band, alongside Leo Dalton and Geoff Whyte, in the 1970s. Ah those signature seventies flares and moustache!
