🎓 STUDENT SPOTLIGHT 🎓
We want to celebrate Azize Dia today! ✨@-Azdia-

In only 3 months of lessons, Azize has shown amazing dedication. He just conquered a really challenging section – and has really worked hard on that legendary Steve Gadd feel in his playing. 🎶
Lloyd Ryan (Drum Tutor) says:
“Well done Az, you’ve really worked hard on this – such great progress, well done!”
Super proud of you! 💪🥁

🔥 UP FOR AUCTION: LEGENDARY PICK WITHERS SNARE DRUM – THE SULTANS OF SWING SOUND 🥁
Own a piece of music history — this is the actual Pick Withers snare drum played on Dire Straits’ timeless classic Sultans of Swing.
That crisp, defining backbeat you know instantly? It came from exactly this drum. It’s the heartbeat behind one of the most iconic songs ever recorded — the very sound that helped launch the band to global fame and shaped the sound of a generation.
Pick Withers’ playing style gave the track its signature groove, and this drum was central to that magic. It’s not just a piece of kit — it’s a direct link to the studio where rock history was made. Fully verified and authenticated, ready to take pride of place in any serious collection or studio.
This is an incredibly rare opportunity — instruments used on landmark recordings like this almost never come up for sale. Whether you’re a lifelong Dire Straits fan, a vintage gear collector, or someone who lives and breathes classic rock, this is your chance to own something irreplaceable.

🔸 2‑PLY• Warmer, deeper, more focused tone• Controlled resonance (less over‑ring)• Stronger, more stable in changing humidity• Best: studio, blues, vintage rock, heavy playing

So sad to hear that the legendary producer Jack Douglas has passed away. 💔
Sometimes life works out in the most incredible, crazy ways… imagine being 19, absolutely obsessed with The Beatles, and ending up not just meeting one of your heroes, but working alongside him. This story from Jack’s book is pure magic — and it gets even better! RIP Jack — what an amazing life and legacy you left behind. ✨

“I was 19, crazy about The Beatles, had no money, no visa, no nothing. My friend and I talked our way onto a cargo ship from New York — we just wanted to stand where they stood, buy Rubber Soul, see Liverpool. We slipped past immigration, walked right off the dock into the city. We wandered around all day, bought records, took photos, thought we were kings.”
“Next morning the police found us. They said: ‘You’re the two crazy Yanks from the paper!’ I looked — there it was, the Liverpool Echo, big headline: ‘Two American Fans Sneak In To See Beatles City’. They even had a little photo of us standing by the Pier Head. We were famous for 24 hours! They held us a few hours, put us back on the first ship home. I was heartbroken — but I kept that newspaper clipping for years.”
“Six years later, 1971, I’m working at Record Plant, and John Lennon walks in. I’m nervous, but I tell him: ‘I was that kid — the one in the Liverpool Echo back in ’65.’ John stopped, stared, and laughed out loud: ‘Oh you! I remember that story! I read it — said “What nuts!”’ Then he said: ‘You’re alright — you work for me now.’ That’s how I got Imagine.”
And here’s the brilliant extra bit we heard from someone who knew Jack — proper classic Scouse banter too! 😂
When they met, John kept asking him:
“Have you still got it?”
Jack, thinking back to that day, replied:
“What — the Liverpool Echo?”
John just laughed and shot back:
“No, soft arse! The guitar!!” 🎸
(And what a guitar it was — a beautiful, rare Les Paul)
What a story, what a career, and what a man. Rest in peace, Jack Douglas. You brought so much incredible music into the world. 🎶

✨ Look at Leo go! ✨
This awesome young drummer has been learning with Lloyd Ryan for just 4 months — and look what he’s achieved! 🤩
He’s just finished Jump by Van Halen… and this clip? It’s the middle section — the part that trips up so many drummers, the tricky bit that usually slows everyone down or feels impossible to get right. 🛑
But not Leo. 🙅‍♂️ He’s put in so much practice, focus and hard work every single week, and it shows — he’s nearly there 🎯

This week, Leo heads straight into his GCSE period — big focus, big effort, big milestones ahead. We’re so proud of how far he’s come in such a short time, and we know that same dedication will carry him brilliantly through his exams too. 💪
Keep going Leo ,seriously well done!
