This is in response to the latest Weckl thread. Weckl always deservedly garners copious compliments on his drum sound. But, there's just something raw and organic that comes through on Morello's drums that I've never heard surpassed, IMHO, of course. Obviously, it's better listing to the vinyl recording on a fancy tube amp stereo system. But, hopefully you'll get the idea.

I agree. For what it is, it's a beautiful sound.

The tone and resonance of those drums heard on a high quality sound system is amazing. I've discovered that about some other older drum recordings heard on the right equipment.
Years ago, I read that Morello switched to DW drums (Collecter's I'm guessing), because, in his opinion, they sounded like the old Ludwig's he used to play. I've also "heard," from others more knowledgeable about drum making, that that's what DW was going for.
