New Concert Pics !


Jazz Fest Gronau.  April 2006

with Helge Schneider,  Munich, June 2006


From this highly eclectic list of talented performers it is plain to see that PETE YORK is one of the most versatile musicians ever to sit at the drum set.


He is equally at home in a rock and roll group, New Orleans funk, Big Band Swing, symphony orchestra, bebop,  mainstream, Dixieland, blues, ethnic music of all kinds,  in fact anywhere that a drummer might find himself.

The complete highlight of the whole evening was Pete York's drum solo. I was open mouthed at the sheer power and skill in his drumming, especially when he switched from drumsticks to brushes halfway through and then swapped back again with no interruption whatsoever. A drumming genius, no doubt about it.
