Micky Waller

Michael "Micky" Waller (6 September 1941 – 6 May 2008)〔 was an English drummer, who played with many of the biggest names on the UK rock and blues scene, after he became a professional musician in 1960. In addition to being a member, albeit sometimes briefly, of some of the seminal bands of the 1960s, Waller played as a session musician with a host of UK and US artists and was famously known for never having a full drum kit whenever he turned up for recording sessions.〔
==Biography==
Waller was born in Hammersmith, London.〔(Thedeadrockstarsclub.com ) – accessed January 2011. Some sources give his date of death as 29 April 2008. Other sources, including an obituary in ''The Guardian'', listed his stage name spelling as Mickey Waller.〕 Waller's first professional band, The Flee-Rekkers, had a No. 23 hit in the UK Singles Chart in 1960, with their recording of "Green Jeans" produced by Joe Meek. He soon left to join a well-known band of the day, Joe Brown and the Bruvvers.〔
In July 1963, he joined the Cyril Davies R&B All Stars, a band with a volatile line-up, replacing the band's original drummer Carlo Little. At that time the line-up was:
* Cyril Davies (vocals, harmonica)
* Long John Baldry (vocals)
* Geoff Bradford (guitar)
* Cliff Barton (bass)
* Keith Scott (piano)
* Micky Waller (drums)
Davies died on 7 January 1964,〔(The 1960s ). The Dead Rock Stars Club. Retrieved on 28 December 2012.〕 and Waller left as the band was changed by Long John Baldry to become the Hoochie Coochie Men. Waller went on to play with Marty Wilde as one of the Wildecats.〔 While with Wilde, Waller played on two tours with Little Richard around the UK.〔
Like many musicians of the day, Waller moved frequently from band to band, or as was often the case, the band he was in metamorphosed into another. After a short stint with Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames, a band he was to rejoin several times, he joined Brian Auger to become part of The Trinity,〔 and was soon followed by Long John Baldry. In April 1965, the group was expanded by Rod Stewart and Julie Driscoll and evolved into a new band, The Steampacket:
* Long John Baldry (vocals)
* Rod Stewart (vocals)
* Julie Driscoll (vocals)
* Vic Briggs (guitar)
* Brian Auger (keyboards)
* Rick Brown (bass)
* Micky Waller (drums)〔
In April 1966, Rod Stewart left, and the other members remained as the nucleus of a new band, Brian Auger, Julie Driscoll & The Trinity:
* Julie Driscoll (vocals)
* Vic Briggs (guitar)
* Rick Brown (bass)
* Brian Auger (keyboards)
* Micky Waller (drums)
Waller subsequently joined John Mayall's Bluesbreakers for a few gigs in April 1967,〔 while Mayall looked for a permanent drummer, and was soon replaced by Keef Hartley.
* John Mayall (vocals, guitar, keyboards)
* Peter Green (guitar, vocals)
* John McVie (bass)
* Micky Waller (drums)
In August 1967, Waller joined the Jeff Beck Group, with former bandmate Rod Stewart:
* Rod Stewart (vocals)
* Jeff Beck (guitar)
* Ron Wood (bass)
* Micky Waller (drums)〔
The group produced two albums. ''Truth'' in 1968 saw the four piece play a mixture of blues with guitar riffs. The instrumental, "Beck's Bolero", with Jimmy Page on rhythm guitar, The Who's Keith Moon on drums, and bassist John Paul Jones; combined with Waller's playing on the remake of The Yardbirds' hit "Shapes of Things"; set the template for a heavier blues style. The following year, a second album from the band was ''Beck-Ola''. But by this point Waller had already departed the band,〔 to be replaced by Tony Newman.
In 1969, Waller flew to Venice Beach Los Angeles to form the band "Silver Metre" with guitarist Leigh Stephens of Blue Cheer fame, fellow Brit Pete Sears on bass and keyboards, and Jack Reynolds (singer). They recorded one album at Trident Studios in London, England which was released on the National General label,〔Eyries, Patrice, David Edwards and Mike Callahan. (21 October 2005). (National General Album Discography ). Both Sides Now Publications. Accessed on 1 May 2014.〕 produced by their manager, FM rock radio pioneer Tom Donahue.
Also in '69, Waller sat in on ''An Old Raincoat Won't Ever Let You Down'', Rod Stewart's first solo album (it was known as ''The Rod Stewart Album'' in the US). The backing band on the album also included Ron Wood, Ian McLagan, Keith Emerson, and guitarists Martin Pugh (of Steamhammer, and later Armageddon and 7th Order) and Martin Quittenton (also from Steamhammer).〔http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-rod-stewart-album-rod-stewart/73413?ean=731455805826〕 Waller's relationship with Stewart and Wood served him well, as he would go on to join them on the next Stewart album, ''Every Picture Tells a Story''.〔 The coupling meant that Waller played percussion on Stewart's transatlantic chart topping hit single, "Maggie May".〔
In 1971, Waller joined the Long John Baldry blues band for Baldry's first tour of the United States. The band included Ian Armitt on piano, and fellow Rod Stewart session men, Sam Mitchell on guitar, and Pete Sears on bass. Waller continued to work regularly in both rock and blues bands, and joined the original line-up of the Deluxe Blues Band, with Dick Heckstall-Smith, and bassist Bob Brunning.
* Danny Adler (vocal, guitar)
* Bob Brunning (bass)
* Bob Hall (piano)
* Dick Heckstall-Smith (sax)
* Micky Waller (drums)
In the early 1980s, Waller was a member of the Terry Smith Blues Band, with Jo Ann Kelly (vocals) and Tony Ashton (organ). Over the intervening years Waller's playing experience included credits with The Walker Brothers, Cat Stevens, Eric Clapton, Bo Diddley, Dusty Springfield and Paul McCartney.〔 In the early 1980s, Waller also played in the Sam Mitchell Band.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sam mitchell discography )
Brunning subsequently hung onto the Deluxe Blues band name, reusing it for a number of line-ups, whilst Waller went to play in Italy for a period. Upon his return to London, Waller briefly joined a revived Deluxe Blues Band that reunited him with Heckstall-Smith and Brunning, along with new members Dave Beaumont, Alan Vincent and Phil Taylor. He continued to play intermittently with a number of blues bands in the London area, including the eponymous Micky Waller Band.〔
In his later life, Waller took a degree in law, and used his gained knowledge to win court claims for unpaid royalties.〔
Waller died of liver failure in London, in May 2008, at the age of 66.〔
