North Drums did well at that time.



They were Cool Days
before Drum Sample Computers.
When Music was of great Value.

I've ALWAYS liked North drums. If I could find a set for a reasonable price, I'd buy them and use them.

White is my favorite color on North drums.

There are a bunch of white North Drums on Ebay right now, check them out!

The same guy has 10" and 12" toms up right now.

Then check out these two white North 6" and 8" toms:

North Drums were cool, how come they are not available today!

They all went south, Drumman!...he he!

I met Billy, for the first time, then.
I was a little kid and he was and
still is THE Billy Cobham!





Regards,

I saw him play on the North drums at Symphony Hall in Boston, Mass. in the 1970's.
He was playing with George Duke, Alphonso Johnson, & John Scofield, I believe.

I wish we could find the first gigs with
Doug Rauch on Bass.


I know he was not that long with the first set up
due to a sad drug problem
he was taken off the gig.
