Double Drumming / Double Drum Kits

Let's talk favorite examples of double drum kit drumming in jazz/rock/pop/etc. I'm almost always a sucker for it, but it's not something I've made a point to trace over the years, so I've probably forgotten a lot of my favorite examples.

Listening now:

(Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere--searched several phrases with no luck)

the Hanley/Burns combo was pretty hard to beat.

I love the Pink Fairies with two drummers:

They sound pretty ramshackle and loose but that's a nice contrast to what could've been just two guys pounding out a 4/4 beat. The middle drum solo/megashuffle bit is especially cool.

The only lineup of the Melvins I like is the two-drummer version.

Trumpeter Jeremy Pelt's 2015 album Tales, Musings and Other Reveries has two drummers and is great.

Search: Ringo and Jim Keltner.

Poi Dog Pondering did this for a while.

Saw King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard last year with two drummers. My primary thought was: for a half-filled club show, these dudes sure gotta split the money a lotta ways.

My all-time favorite example of double-drumming: Milford Graves and Toshi Tsuchitori

The new Zappa Roxy blu-ray features great Ralph Humphrey/Chester Thompson drumming plus Ruth Underwood on percussion and Zappa himself doing some tricky percussion on certain tunes

Ed Blackwell and Billy Higgins on Ornette's Free Jazz.

Two bassists too.

Don't forget Miles Davis's Bitches Brew, where Jack DeJohnette was paired up with Don Alias or Lenny White, depending on the track.

^some dauner i haven't heard before. drummers x 2 on his rischkas soul outing as well.

Yeah, "Kamasutram" from 'Rischkas Soul' is great for understated double drumming.

Ornette Coleman's prime time. Of human feelings album etc.

Horse Lords does some excellent double drumming that winds up sounding like Jaki Liebezeit overdubs.

What about when a drummer overdubs themselves? And not just a tambourine or maracas overdub, but a full kit.

Keith Moon did it here:

And Tony Oxley overdubbed himself here (interestingly, even though the full quartet overdubbed themselves on this piece, for the overdub, Bill Dixon was the only one hearing the first pass in his headphones):

-the double drum songs on Fugazi's 'The Argument'

-two drummers with different sound palettes on most of the newest Christian Scott album

-John Coltrane, Meditations (not my favorite but should be mentioned)

-Matt Chamberlain with Matt Chamberlain on those Fiona Apple songs, like 'Limp'

i feel like i'm missing something important (to me)...

also the "one whole drumkit in the left channel, the other in the right channel" mixing solution to this always kind of bothers me. it's good for identifying who's playing what on jazz albums, but it sounds weird unless both drummers are playing an interlocking part. no more weird than those old recordings with the drums in one channel and the bass in the other, but those can be annoying too if i fixate on it (good for sampling though).

i don't know what a better solution would be, maybe divide parts so one drummer is playing the low frequency instruments (kick/toms) and the other has the snare and cymbals?

...which is basically how all the New Orleans brass band music i listen to works (two drummers, one on bass drum + small cymbal, the other on snare + large cymbal).

FEELIES

don't normally like 2 drummers unless they're doing totally different/complimentary things. but off the top of my head:

Boredoms (2+)
90s King Crimson
Allman Brothers
some of the James Brown bands in the 60s

There is some really cool double drumming on Jim O'Rourke's "Therefore I Am" (from Insignificance), where the two drummers (or overdubbed drums, not sure which) basically play a unison, AC/DC type beat during the verses and then diverge for a couple bars after each verse.

I don't know what I enjoy most about this:
- The astounding musicianship
- Christian Vander's facial expressions
- Travis Bickle sitting in as his co-drummer

They never did anything overly complicated with their dual drummers, but Tussle were always good fun live
