In 1961, He Recorded Let There Be Drums (Co-Composed With Ritchie Podolor, Who Later Successfully Produced Three Dog Night And Steppenwolf) For Imperial And Again The Disc Went Gold.Rock'n'roll Drum Beat Assembles A Hefty 30 Tracks From Sandy's Great Imperial Sides (Including The Seminal Let There Be Drums).
