Percussion is as integral to a three-piece power trio as it is to a 125-piece orchestra. What's the issue with including drums for this Anglican rodeo?

John Mayall had no drums for a while.
There are also plenty of British Invasion folk song style artists, who would not have drummers.

The Pete Best Syndrome all over again.
Other than that, it sounds cool. I'd be wanting to see who took a pass on the Lads and went for The Tremeloes, or some other group. But no drums?

LOL, Chad and Jeremy, and Peter and Gordon were the two acts who immediately came to mind!

Not that all their songs were drumless...

might get slammerized for this but Gerry and The Pacemakers had a couple songs that could be performed with a clave, I wonder if a good lulu ( excellent teen movie cool vocal work from her) will show :lol: That right there we have to see the video :lol:
