Mitch Mitchell ; The Jimi Hendrix Experience
"I wish this book had been available when I first started playing. At last, a common-sense book to help all drummers, novice or pro, in the understanding of their instrument. Along with practice and selection of heads, DRUM TUNING should help to keep recording engineers/producers from duct taping everything in sight (and making you sound like cardboard boxes)."

Kenny Aronoff ; John Mellincamp, Studio Musician, Smashing Pumkins...
"This book will really help someone who hasn't had a lot of experience tuning drums. What I mean is that for those kids who don't change their heads a lot because of money, or because they don't care, when they suddenly go in the studio or start playing out, this will really help. I wish this book existed when I was struggling. It's really good."

Carmine Appice ; Blue Murder, Rod Stewart, Vanilla Fudge, Cactus, Beck Bogart and Appice, ...etc
"This book is great for new and old drummers. I recommend it highly."

Ed Soph ; Univ. of North Texas, Studio Musician, Clinician, Author
"It's the most comprehensive discussion I've seen, clearly written and organized. I'm certainly going to recommend it to my students."

Hal Blaine ; Studio Musician - the most recorded ever - for everyone
"Larry Nolly has covered every aspect of drum tuning from A to Z and from the beginning of music to today's most popular sounds. It is an invaluable reference guide and teaching tool for any beginner or professional. This book should be in every reference library of every educational institution in the world! Thank you Larry!!"

Modern Drummer review
"...Nolly doesn't usually push his preferences, but rather advices experimentation. ...succeeds at clarifying an often baffling area, and DRUM TUNING is a pretty good place to look."

John Glozek ; editor Drum Tracks
"It is thorough and very well done."
