This mixtape is dedicated to Jeff Porcaro. Volume 2 features tracks from George Benson, Deniece Williams, Bill LaBounty, Leo Sayer, Amy Holland, David Roberts, Hall & Oates and many more.
AOR Disco: "If you want a masterclass on Westcoast music from the late 1970s and early 1980s, you just need to follow the trail of Jeff Porcaro. The top session drummer of the era and band leader of Toto, Porcaro had a deceptively simple style. He loathed unnecessary fills and refused to perform drum solos. For him it was all about feel and groove. "Just keep time," he told a group of students in this fascinating 45 minute video of a Q+A he did at the Musicians Institute in Los Angeles in 1986. Thanks again to Martijn Soetens, music director of NPO Radio 6 Soul and Jazz in the Netherlands, for another great selection. Volume 3 is coming soon..."
