Meet Rick Allen, drummer for Def Leppard. Some would argue that he is one of the greatest rock 'n roll drummers of all time. A strong argument considering the man only has one arm. His right arm.
Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich was seeking a specific snare-drum sound for the recording of Master of Puppets. The kind of sound that comes only from a Ludwig Black Beauty snare drum. The only person he knew of that owned one was Rick Allen, who at the time was still recovering from the car accident which took his left arm. Suddenly, a light bulb popped up over Lars' head.
Album producer Flemming Rasmussen told Rolling Stone about the phone call Lars made to Rick's manager:
“So [Lars] called their manager and said, ‘Hey, Rick’s not using the snare right now. Can you send it over?'... The next day it was there. They just overnighted it.Then on one of his days off, he went to some music shops in Denmark and found one that had been sitting on the shelf for, like, 10 years and it cost the 1976 price. Now he’s got, like, 20 of them.” - Rasmussen, Metallica Talk 30 Years of Master of Puppets, Kory Grow, Rolling Stone (Mar 2, 2016)
