Greg Errico

What draws me to Greg Errico is the groove. As the drummer for Sly and the Family Stone, this San Francisco native laid the foundation for some of the most influential psychedelic soul and funk ever recorded. To me, his beats are the quiet engine behind that revolutionary sound, and his later work as a record producer shows a musician who understood records from the inside out. Born in 1948, he lived the heat of that era firsthand. I always want to applaud the unsung craftsmen who hold a whole band together, and Errico is exactly that.
