Mississippi Knights![]() |
|
For anyone interested, this album finds Billy sitting behind his triple bass drum set. He has 3 snare drums directly in front of him : an 8" to the left, a piccollo (3 1/2") in the middle and a 6 1/2" to the right. They have been "panned" this way at the point of recording. The 3 bass drums from left to right are 22, 24 and 20 which have received a similar treatment from the microphone standpoint. However, Billy can deceive the listener as he has a series of pedals behind the 3 bass drums that allow his right foot to play the bass drum on the far left hand side and visa-versa.
As has become usual for Billy to complete his sonic picture, the rack toms are not arranged in a standard order and in addition he has floor toms on either side.
