He’s Back! 🥁

We’re delighted to share that Lloyd is back where he belongs—behind the drum kit!

Just 8 weeks after hip replacement surgery, Lloyd is back in the drum seat, doing what he loves most. His determination, hard work, and passion for music have been truly inspiring.

A huge thank you to everyone who has sent messages of support, encouragement, and good wishes throughout his recovery. It has meant the world.

Lloyd is looking forward to making music again and seeing friends, followers, and fellow musicians along the way.

Here’s to new beginnings, great music, and many more beats to come! 🥁❤️

A nice little snippet about the first drumshop in Liverpool acme drums supplied by Miles Holmes son of Mike RIP. This is from 1987. I added the picture at the end when Brian tried to sneek in ! Honestly you don’t have to be the biggest drumshop to be the best ! Acme was incredible. Moochers paradise ! The Icicle works Chris Sharrock was Brian’s staff member! Funny days. I never knew brass & woodwind was for sale here!! Picture 2. ❤️

Ready to go to a new studio — this is Pick Withers’ Dire Straits Yamaha 9000RA Recording Artist drum set 🤩
Pick took delivery of this exact kit at the legendary Power Station NYC in 1982. This is the rare final RA-series — the 9000 drums with famous 30° painted bearing edges that make the sustain off the scale. Yamaha brought their grand piano soundboard expertise into this short-lived line, and the tone is simply incredible.
A true piece of recording history — available on eBay now!

These are the rarer Yamaha Drums (Official) 9000 Recording Artist shells. This one dates to 1983 when Yamaha were using the 30 Degree Bearing edge and painting the edges! Anyone who builds drums will tell you this process is time consuming. The lacquer was the same as used on the grand pianos. Recording Artist 9000’s are rare. Usually found in the USA. Favoured by Steve Gadd, Jim Keltner, etc. This 13“ x 9“ is part of a dream set which will be revealed soon
