Some of Michel’s early musical influences which shaped his sound had included, “Peter Hammill and his band Van Der Graaf. I copied their drummer, Guy Evans a lot. My drum style would be a combination of Evans, Clive Burr of Iron Maiden, Animal Taylor of Motorhead, and Terry Bozzio of Zappa.”

I did not know that!

Many of the great and good cite Hammill as an influence. I can see why from the few albums I own - and that's only his solo stuff. I've been meaning to get into Van der graf Generator for as long as I can recall.

I suppose it's obvious that he should love Bozzio - but it's cool to imagine him grooving to "punky's Whips".

... or "Titties'N'Beer"!

Also, Away is a fan of Acid Mothers Temple! Very cool!

That was probably one of the most informative articles I have read.

Thanks for the link.

Ok, now, I listened to "The Ocean Is The Ultimate Solution" this morning, and there's a double bass-drum part that is very Away-esque.

And Bozzio recorded it in 1976!

Very in depth article.

I didn't knew that he made music with the artist Eric Braun, it must be weird...

I still can't wait for that art book!

Acid Mothers Temple is a cool band name...
