Sadly, it seems that another great elder of drumming has passed. Follow the link if you're not familiar with him. He was special. http://www.drummerworld.com/drummers/Jake_Hanna.html Gene

I use to play his sticks, Regal Tip Jake Hanna model. My dad knew him too. Good drummer.

His sticks were the first sticks I chose as well. Gene

I had no choice, my dad gave me his used sticks which were like new, seeing as he played an 18" bass drum with 12" tom and 14" floor three 20" K rides and never hit rim shots.

They were nice sticks. I only went away from them because I really preferred wood tips. He was a REALLY nice player. I often watched the Merv Griffin show just to hear him. Gene

Here's a Merv show, is that him in the back with a beard? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvnmbyxZB2g Only one I could find that showed the band.

I couldn't really see, but I think that's the late Nick Ceroli (another fine drummer worth checking out!) in that clip from Merv's show. Jake also played with Woody Herman's band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbjK9TZ3vnQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMDsk2nojd0
