He was Stevie’s drummer in Stevie Ray Vaughan and the Double Trouble band, making him either the double or the trouble. So if you do know who Stevie Ray Vaughan was then placing Chris Layton in your mind will be easy. Maybe that’s a forgivable offense but I also didn’t know who Stevie Ray Vaughan was either. MyCustomKit.Chris Layton - Kenny Wayne Shepherd Turn To Stone Noah Hunt guitar, vocals - Scott Nelson bass - Joe Krown keyboards - Joe Sublett saxophone - Mark Pender trumpet - Rockpalast - Germany - 2019Maybe I’m all alone in this but before I picked up this DVD I had no idea who Chris Layton was. 'All the world's indeed a stage, and we are merely players'. Actually Chris Layton played Grestch back when Texas Flood was recorded not sure about the snare though, and he switched to Tama in 84 I believe and at some point after Stevie's death used Pearl for a while.
Today Chris Layton serves as the drummer for the Kenny Chris Layton: Manic Depression, Mitch Mitchell & Experience Hendrix Reverb Interview. The list of artists that Chris has worked with includes the likes of Jonny Lang, Eric Johnson, and Susan Tedeschi. After Double Trouble, Layton went on to, with Tommy Shannon, formed supergroups such as the Arc Angels, Storyville, and Grady.
There were a bunch of musical performances but honestly all they did was to cover for the fact that Chris had very little to say. The rest of the time he’s kinda meandering through something that resembles a drum lesson but he seems totally out of place. The only times Chris showed any real passion was when he was talking about SRV. It honestly felt more like a SRV tribute then an instructional video.
I wouldn’t bother, you’ll learn a lot more by listening to some SRV records.As you can tell my no-mic scoring experiment is still in effect so tell me what you think about that in the comments section. That isn’t horrible when you consider the age of this thing but it’s nothing special.All in all this one is skippable. It’s their job to give him direction and coax the knowledge from him… they failedFor extras they have slow motion exercises, artist biography, selected discography, and suggested listening.
