This week Mark and I spoke to Chris Kimball about a 70s oddity in the Yes instrumental arsenal - Alan White's North drums. After restoring, playing and recording with these strange objects, Chris is ideally placed to explain why they look so weird and why drummers like Alan White were interested in using them. It's another engrossing story from a very knowledgeable musician and it's packed with detail so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Why are North drums shaped like that?What were they made of?Why did they disappear? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think!
