Bob Dylan and his band - Appreciation post: George Recile
In the band since: January 31, 2002
Instruments: drums, percussions
Quote from Bob about George :I like the drummer I have now, he is one of the best around.
Joke from Bob about George: On drums, George Recile. He's the best drummer - on stage.
Quote from George about recording Modern Times: I had total freedom for ideas and it was a lot of fun. The beauty of working with Bob is that it is a different approach. I mean if you're looking at it as a musician (and not solely as a drummer); this is the area you have to go in if you're going to play the song.
About working with Bob: To work with Bob Dylan do you have to be clairvoyant? Whatever you are delivering, make sure it's fresh. If you're doing that…and calling that clairvoyant, you're right. I think it's about being open to where the music is going to take you, and having the ability to seize it immediately. You relly need to have this sense. By that I mean, always pushing the limits. You can't be afraid to take chances. The word is fearless.
