Self-proclaimed the “Most Recorded Drummer in History,” Bernard “Pretty” Purdie is an American musical treasure. One of few artists who’s shaped the rhythm of American music for more than half a century, Purdie returned to the spotlight with an original collection of songs alongside modern funk, soul and jazz masterminds Ivan Neville, Pete Shand, and Brian J. Special guests include three inimitable vocalists Cyril Neville, Anthony Cole, and Mayteana Morales. Ranked among the “Top 20 Drummers of All Time” by Rolling Stone Magazine and inducted into Modern Drummer’s “Hall of Fame,” Purdie’s idiosyncratic drum work can be heard on a staggering number of classic albums produced by artists such as The Beatles, James Brown, Nina Simone, B.B. King, Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis, Hall & Oates, and Steely Dan.
