BRIAN BENNETT was born in London in 1940 and by the late 1950s was one of the most sought-after percussionists around. As well as his solo work and collaborations he was a member of the Shadows, joining in 1961. He has been one of the top drummers in rock & roll for two generations, as well as a top arranger and an award-winning film and television composer. His multi-tiered career, which includes running his own record label, has made Bennett one of the most successful musicians of his generation, well into the 21st century.

The 12 tracks I have selected in the playlist below cover mostly the space funk/abstract soul side of his repertoire.
