When I drew up my wish list of drummers to photograph for this project, Charlie Watts was right at the very top. Go well Charlie.

Two of my favourite drummers chewing the fat tomorrow night over on Instagram.
Hey, tomorrow night I’ll be chatting to this handsome bugger-Mike Spearman from @E_E_ at 9pm BST over on IG Live.....not chatted for ages so gonna be a good catch up.
It's been a while, but there's a new #CrashCourse up now - the first of several drummers who will be part of the NEXT stage of the project - the bold @AlynCosker, who literally walks us through some ideas for advanced drumming rhythms. youtube.com/watch?v=BdxbbXFQ…
Happy 80th birthday to Bruce Mitchell. In the Sixties, Bruce wanted to look cool. West Coast Jazz cool. Gerry Mulligan cool. That’s why he became a musician. @DuruttiColumn #Drummer flashwallop.co.uk/bruce-mitc…
Rob's portrait was inspired by the old

sleeves from the 50s and 60s. His image is actually superimposed onto a black cover of The White Album. flashwallop.co.uk/rob-cieka-…
In 1995, you couldn't go anywhere without hearing The Boo Radleys' impossibly catchy "Wake Up Boo!" - as different to any Britpop anthem you could find, with punchy brass and Rob Cieka's Motown-inspired beat.
Here's Rob's #CrashCourse. youtu.be/vtEkFlx0AkE
One of my favourite interviews/shoots was with Andy. An utter gent.

The portrait of @Juppelbow was based on the synapses which fire in the brain around the time most people start getting into drumming. Listen here: flashwallop.co.uk/rick-jupp

Tom's @FlashWallop portrait was based on a WWII artillery shell found on a beach outside Edinburgh. He used the shell as the base for improvised drumkits he took round Europe busking with Phil. This portrait (outtake) features the shell, on Gullane beach. flashwallop.co.uk/tom-bancro…
