David Frangioni's new coffee table book Crash: The World's Greatest Drum Kits released yesterday in association with Modern Drummer magazine. The book is an illustrated history of legendary rock drum kits featuring images from live concerts, outdoor festivals, and private recording sessions. Along with the makes and models, each kit is accompanied by commentary about the history of the kit, its special characteristics, as well as its significance to rock history. The book features Neil Peart, Carl Palmer, Ginger Baker, Keith Moon, Ringo Starr, and many more, and is currently available to order via Amazon at this location. Modern Drummer is currently running a contest where you could win one of 3 signed copies of the book. For all the details and to enter the contest, go to this location.
