I hate to be the bearer of sad news, but as a drummer (and iffy guitarist), I have to add this for a talent that gave enjoyment and his all to fans and the music world.

Condolences to his family and friends. Here is a look at Skip Prokop.

Thanks, for the paradiddles and the ratamacues, Skip. RIP

I did a little drumming early on, and also still have a best friend who is probably one of the finest drummers, next to Ginger Baker in his prime.

That's great, Glen. The world can always use more good drummers. Drummers are becoming extinct (although, without a roadie, I don't mind not having to haul gear). Besides, there's a pretty good list that double up as vocalists, guitarists, and/or band leaders like Skip. :P
