Born on this day ...

[Ruby]

Rick Marotta was born on this day in 1948, in New York City. He's a drummer with around 368 album credits up his sleevey. He did quite a bit with Carly Simon but otherwise has worked with vast number of different artists - I'm assuming him to be a first call session drummer considering the list! He also composed the music for the TV show Everybody Loves Raymond which I must say, I do not recall. His little brother Jerry is a notable drummer too - must've had some longsuffering parents!! I've chosen Steely Dan's "Peg" from Aja ... 



 

and Roxy Music's "To Turn You On" ...
