Just saw it confirmed that drummer Fast Eddie Hoh passed away this past Saturday Nov. 7. One of my favorite drummers of the 60's mostly from his amazing tracks with the Monkees on the Pisces Aquarius album. After disappearing for much of the last 45 years to the point some thought he had died years ago, he reappeared via a friend who had seen fans talking about Eddie on internet music forums and he came on to update everyone about where Eddie was...and that led to a Facebook fan page where Eddie read every message and question posted there and delivered to him, and answered via his friend when he could.
Terrific drummer. My favorite Eddie Hoh drum tracks in no particular order:
Pleasant Valley Sunday
Words
Goin Down
The Door Into Summer
Daily Nightly
Season Of The Witch (Donovan and Super Session versions)
And this film outtake from Monterey Pop where Eddie gets a chance to cut loose on a jam while they fix some vocal microphone issues, and where the camera catches a priceless expression at 46 seconds after Eddie nails an awesome fill...
