Imagine you’re 20 years old and you’re playing drums in Santana and the band gets asked to play WOODSTOCK. Thats exactly what happened to my guest Micheal Shrieve back in 1969.
Rock n Roll Hall Of Famer Michael Shrieve has had an incredible career behind the kit and his stories are amazing.
I first saw him play in 1984 with the supergroup H.S.A.S. that included Neal Schon, Sammy Hagar and Kenny Aaronson. That record is so underrated and I always wondered what could of happened if they kept going.
We dive into his career including how he recorded his latest record Drums Of Compassion which is out right now on all the streaming platforms.
