Review by Nicko McBrain, Now a legend with Iron Maiden. Pat first saw Nicko play with the Streetwalkers in 1976 and was very impressed with his drumming style. Nicko worked with Pat on a deal with the late Keith Moon (The Who) and also did a great deal of valuable road testing in the studio with the band Trust who he played with before joining Maiden. He found by varying the position and the type of microphone in an area in front of the exit ports of the drum shells produced very variable sounds, noticing the sound miked at the head (normal way standard drums are miked) was alot flatter than the sound coming from the front of the drum.
