ACCESSORIES – Comes only as seen in photos. Does not include any hardware. PHYSICAL CONDITION -Very Good. Kept in great shape all of these years! WORKING CONDITION -Very Good. Judge a man by the company he keeps, so the saying goes. By those standards, the company Ian Wallace keeps would rank him among the most accomplished and highly regarded drummers of his time. Sought out by acclaimed artists and successful record producers, and a favorite of fellow musicians, Ian Wallace has quietly amassed one of the most impressive musical resumes of the last three decades. But don’t take our word for it. Consider that Bob Dylan has repeatedly hired Wallace as his tour drummer, in the 1970s and again in the 1990s. Consider that Don Henley, himself a drummer as well as a renowned perfectionist, selected Wallace to take over the drum chair for three of his solo tours through the’80s and’90s. Need more proof: Wallace, who has worked with hundreds of performers, is hired most often by those whose reputations rest on their musical integrity. The Englishman has toured and/or recorded with such notables as multi-instrumentalist David Lindley; guitarists Bonnie Raitt, Ry Cooder, Larry Coryell, Robert Fripp (as a member of King Crimson), Lonnie Mack, Peter Frampton, Robben Ford, Joe Walsh and Alvin Lee; keyboardists Warren Zevon, Eno, and Keith Emerson; and vocalists Roy Orbison, Jackson Browne, Jon Anderson (Yes), Stevie Nicks, Steve Marriott, and Crosby, Stills, and Nash. Did we mention that he toured with Procol Harum and recorded with the supergroup The Traveling Wilburys as well? If Wallace wanted to add more ammunition to his case, he could mention that over the years he’s sat in with such famed bandleaders as Chuck Berry, Lindsey Buckingham, Tim Buckley, Jimmy Buffett, Eric Clapton, Bo Diddley, John Fogerty, Glen Frey, Billy Joel, Little Richard, Dave Mason, Al Kooper, Linda Ronstadt, Boz Scaggs, Bob Seger, Jo-el Sonnier, Otis Spann, Sting, and Steve Winwood. But, if there’s judging to be done, then let those with firsthand evidence do the testifying. David Lindley, who worked with Wallace for years in the band El Rayo-X, once told Musician magazine that Wallace played like a beast. ” Lindley spoke especially well of Wallace’s authority and his eclectic range, saying “Ian’s got these long arms, and that’s where he gets his power from. It’s like the rock-on-the-end-of-the-string principle. In a review of an El Rayo-X album, Win This Record! Respected music critic Dan Forte said of Wallace, “No one combines subtlety and brute force quite like Ian Wallace”, adding that the Englishman got his vote as The best drummer in L. Don Henley spoke of similar qualities when describing Wallace during an interview with Modern Drummer magazine. “I like the way Ian plays”, Henley said. Although he can get very complex. He can play jazz very well. He’s also one of the few drummers I know who doesn’t rush. I just like his style… He’s a hell of a nice guy and a hell of a drummer. That’s why I wanted him in my touring band. Henley also praised Wallace’s ability to work within a live show that included pre-programmed segments, commenting on how well Wallace triggered certain effects while maintaining his own live parts on his kit. “He’s very, very good at that sort of thing”, Henley said. Bonnie Raitt is another who was glad to go on record crowing about what she called Wallace’s killer drumming. Her remarks can be found. The liner notes of her Warner Bros. Greatest hits album, The Bonnie Raitt Collection, in which she talked about the wondrous groove Wallace brought to a cover of Toots and the Maytals’ “True Love Is Hard to Find”.

Without having to curb your enthusiasm of basking in the glow of your new piece of gear, think in terms of preserving it in its mint condition until certain you are keeping it. For instance, if it were rack gear, we would recommend avoiding racking it until you were certain it was a “keeper”. Thus preventing any possible “rack rash” or scratches. If it were a guitar pedal, avoid sticking Velcro on it and mounting to your pedal board until it passed your test to be knighted and sit at your round table of pedals. Although tempting to have both of your favorite things together, put down the chicken wings slathered in barbecue sauce that is dripping all over your leather vest and beard and be sure your hands are clean and dry before trying out your awesome new gear. Pet odors, cigarette and other smoke items can also affect the “newness” of your gear. Also, keep the gear away from your friend with the Billy Ray Cyrus mullet driving the Camaro.
