Title: And Whatever Happened to David Beal? Post by: boomka on May 16, 2008, 08:05 AM I was listening to the Joe Cocker version of Unchain My Heart today in preparation for a gig with a Soul/RnB band and as I enjoyed the rock solid pocket I asked myself, "Whatever happened to David Beal?" In the 80's and early 90's his name was frequently mentioned in Modern Drummer (he may have even been a cover story or at least a cover byline if I remember correctly), he played on some great albums and he did some interesting electronic percussion work with Michael Shrieve. But I haven't heard anything about him in years. I googled him and came up with nothing current, just pages related to the work I mentioned above. Does anyone have any information about what happened to him? He was a great player and it's odd that he hasn't poked his head above water on any big projects that I know of. I hope nothing untoward happened?
