Homer Steinweiss - Percussion Discussion - Episode 118
Joining me today is Homer Steinweiss, Homer is a drummer, writer and producer from New York, he has an enviable CV of both live and recording credits including - Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Fleet Foxes, Lady Ga Ga, Bruno Mars, Texas, Amy Winehouse, St Vincent, Michael Buble, Charles Bradley, Sheryl Crow, Rufus Wainright, Daniel Merriweather and literally hundreds more!
Join Homer and myself as we talk about his quite remarkable career so far - we talk about his work with late Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings and the effort that went in to making those beautifully crafted and incredibly authentic sounding albums, including the approach of the producer, recording equipment and of course the vintage drums themselves, something Homer is very passionate about (as am i)
We also talk about his work with the late great Charles Bradley and how his soulful style was the perfect fit with Homers beautiful and equally soulfull touch on the drums.
Homer speaks at length about how he thinks drummers should recieve a writing credit for coming up with a drum part for a song, he explains that had this happened many years ago then the likes of the late Clyde Stubblefield could have had a much more comfortable lifestyle later in life as the composer of one of the most sampled drum beats in history "The Funky Drummer"
We also talk about the sessions with Mark Ronson about the Amy Winehouse Back to Black sessions of which Homer played on half of the tracks on this iconic album, he lso tells about how Valerie was recorded live in the studio with Amy Winehouse singing!
This conversation was nothing short of remarkable, Homers name deserves far more recognition than it presently has, an incredible drummer, writer & producer plus with a great head for business too.
Homer kindly offered to let me use the beautiful playing that you hear over the titles totally free of charge, definitely more drummy and more in keeping with the nature of this podcast.
