Pete Thomas, Attraction
Direct hits from an unsung groover
Josef Woodard
|
In his own parlance, Pete Thomas, the anchor of Elvis Costello's Attractions for a solid decade, is a bit of a "murgler": i.e. one who creeps mischievously about in hallways. The same goes for his approach behind a drum kit. You don't hear him bashing and flailing much in the rhythm bed beneath his boss. Instead, he's a sly dog of a drummer, driving home basic feels while injecting fire, slink and truth into Costello's witty songfest. Clearly this is one of rock's great unsung groovers.
