For the past 40 years, their shared love for rhythms and musics of the world has taken them around the world in performing togetherwithFred Anderson,Don Cherry,Yusef Lateef, Pharaoh Sanders, Hassan Hakmoun, Hu: Vibrational,Mandingo Griot Society,and Adam Rudolphs Moving Pictures among others.Their shared Chicago rootsand the creative outlook,longtime global music research and performing experience have allowed them to forge a uniquely shared musical understanding and creative outlook.As Drake reflected upon their influence upon each other,I have been developing a hand drum concept on the drum set while Adam says he is developing a drum set concept on his hand drums. We understand one another.
