Something a little different today, the first non drummer ever to appear on Percussion Discussion, but.... he is a monster musician, the wonderful bass player Guy Pratt

 I feel very Privileged to have guy along to chat about his experiences playing with some of the finest drummers in existence today!

 Of course we had to start off with Pink Floyd drummer and founder member Nick Mason (Official) whom Guy has been performing with since the mid 80's and continues to do so with the Saucerful of secrets.
