The Ed Greene Interview

This interview is an absolute gem! This man is such an underrated musician and I don’t doubt that Jeff Porcaro was influenced by Ed, especially with the one-handed 16th feel. (Maybe Ed got turned onto that by James Gadson?) The musical lineage of these studio greats is off the scale in terms of achievement, they are forgotten heroes but in no way irrelevant today. These guys have left time capsules in their work that demands revisiting and given the respect and recognition it deserves. I feel so lucky to have grown up as a kid in the 70’s with so much of Ed Greene’s grooves helping cultivate my own sense of rhythm. Yes, this interview is a gem, thanks for sharing it with us.
