Miss Oli, just now finding out about Jamie. So sorry for your loss. I got to see Jamie with Eric Clapton back in the mid-70s, after "I Shot The Sheriff" and the other hits from that album. Jamie (and Carl) were the locomotive engine driving that band. This was when Eric did a tour with Santana, and they took turns headlining. Jamie was a strong, precise drummer, but always had that magical "feel". Eric Clapton always had the very BEST drummers play with him and record with him. Jamie was one of those. He played everything so effortlessly and made it look easy. I watched Jamie more than I did Eric. When I first found out Jamie was from Tulsa, after not knowing who the heck "was this guy playing with Clapton?", then I knew. He had that TULSA SOUND. He was great. The way Jamie tells these stories from his past is spellbinding. He could have been a great novelist. You just hang on to every single word. Again, I am so sorry for your loss and late to be finding out about it. Wish I could have met him.
He was a legend, his style was unique just like Jeff Porcaro sometimes I can't tell them apart when they play, they were the best drummers in my opinion and Steve Gadd these are my all time favourite drummers. Live Aid Leyla he cracked it and nailed it, he gave that song a soul, I know people believe Phil was the main engine but sorry as much as I love Phil and respect him as a all around musician Jamie had something unique.
It was a privilege and a honor to have known Jamie. Beautiful soul always smiling. Rest in Peace Brother. See you on the other side ED Solan
My cousin
Check it out :Frehley's Comet "Second Sightning" album & "Live +1" with Jamie on the drums.Great job!!!
Unless I missed it, it was odd they never mentioned Jamie Drumming for Frehley's Comet...
