HW: Father and son

[John Majka]

Yeah right on!  Clive Deamer was really awesome on that ECT recording!  I've
always ranked that performance as among my favorite HW appearances....
really high energy!  For me, the worst HW drummer is a toss-up between the
much-maligned Danny Thompson and Martin Griffin, as has already been pointed
out by many others...
