Count Me In Documentary on drumming and drummers-Interview Director Mark Lo


Listen Later

Mark Lo  (Director/Producer) has worked in film and TV for more than 20 years. First, as a music agent and supervisor, collaborating with composers and artists to bring music to picture and then as an Executive Music Producer Mark recently produced and directed the feature music documentary Count Me In. A  celebration of drummers and their unique ability to drive generations of music.     I love being a drummer. Everyone thinks you’re dumb. What they don’t realise is that if it weren’t for you, their band would suck. – Dave Grohl Eat drums! Eat cymbals! – Animal   Drumming was the only thing I was ever good at. John Bonham   Count Me In is a celebration of the role of the drummer in popular music.  Mark Lo’s British-made doc dates back to the even darker days of 2021.  It’s drummers talking about other drummers and appreciating great drumming, and if that works for you, then hear the drummer and get wicked.   The documentary includes interviews with the late Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters), Stewart Copeland (The Police), Roger Taylor (Queen), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Cindy Blackman Santana (Lenny Kravitz, Santana) and Jim Keltner (The Traveling Wilburys) and many others. They all seem to talk about Keith Moon (The Who), John Bonham (Led Zep), and Neil Peart (Rush).   Watching Ringo Starr, Charlie Watts, John Bonham, Ginger Baker, or Keith Moon play for the first time is amazing. Of course, many of those legends were inspired themselves by the great American jazz drummers like Max Roach, Buddy Rich, and Gene Krupa. Still, watching Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden give a detailed account of the differences in style between Starr and Watts is remarkable.   Enjoy the drumology session on the Mulligan Stew Podcast.  Turn it Up and Count Me In.
