Legendary British drummer Bob Henrit, whose sense of timing and rhythmic flair provided the rock solid base for some of the world's greatest artists, has issued his memoirs.
'Banging On!' is illustrated with a wealth of photographs and personal recollections of Keith Moon, David Bowie, The Shadows, Queen, The Hollies, Sandie Shaw, and many more.
Born in 1944, Bob Henrit grew up in Hertfordshire and was educated at a Catholic college.
Having mastered the washboard by the age of twelve, within a short time he was playing drums for Adam Faith.
A founder member of Argent, Bob went on to play with Don McLean and Richie Havens among others, before joining Ray and Dave Davies in The Kinks.
Bob Henrit also drummed for The Roulettes, Cliff Richard, The Zombies, Richie Havens, Ringo Starr, Colin Blunstone, Unit 4 + 2, Genesis, Richard Anthony, Roger Daltrey, Leo Sayer and Ian Matthews, among others.
'Banging On!' is a must read for anyone interested in British music (rock and pop)over the past fifty years.
