One reason, perhaps, that James Stroud is very in-demand in
the Nashville studios is that he doesn't approach a project

On Review
On Track, On Tape, and Printed Page are MD's
three primary review columns. Here is where we
bring some of the finer recordings, videocassettes,
and drum books to your attention. Occasionally,
I'll receive a letter from a reader saying that MD
never seems to have anything bad to say about an
album, video, or drum book. I've even had a few
cynical readers accuse us of taking payoffs in
return for rave reviews—kind of like publishing
payola! Well, nothing could be further from the
truth.
In reality, our reviewing procedure is based on
an editorial policy initiated many years ago and
adhered to since then. This policy maintains that
we will devote space in review departments only to
materials that we strongly feel will benefit the read-
Double Exposure
These past two years have been very exciting for
MD. Among the most exhilarating moments was
our exposure on the most prestigious medium of
them all—TV!
For those who may have missed us, our initial
debut came on the Late Night With David Letter-
man show, when Letterman proudly displayed the
magazine with drummer Steve Jordan on the
cover. Our second TV spot occurred on The
Tonight Show, where host Johnny Carson made
mention of MD's cover story on drummer Ed
Shaughnessy. Our April cover had been framed
ership, and that are thereby worthy of mention in
the pages of MD.
Though many publications apparently take
pleasure in printing bad, or downright malicious,
reviews, we prefer not to waste pages on this type
of reporting. Using valuable editorial space to
inform you of all the negatives on a particular
work and the reasons you should avoid it, to us,
does not constitute productive usage of that space.
If our reviewers honestly approve of a particular
project, you'll certainly read about it here. If, on
the other hand, they feel the material has little or
no value, you're not likely to hear about it at all in
MD. Being extremely selective about the material
we review, we feel, is the most beneficial way to
handle the situation.
and was proudly sitting atop The Tonight Show
band's piano, when a closeup shot suddenly put us
in full view of millions of late-night TV viewers.
And if that wasn't enough, it occurred on a Friday
evening when the viewer ratings are the highest.
Exciting? Sure was. Thrilling moments like this
don't usually happen to special-interest publica-
tions like MD— without paying for them! Who
would have thought, ten years ago, that a little-
known publication—born in a basement—would
someday grow to make its presence known to mil-
lions of people around the world. Certainly, not I!
