Thoughts on BoHammer



While putting this package together, I learned of the passing of Jim “BoHammer” Kelly, the drummer on the Ricochet Project. He died in November 2005. He’s probably the only person who had played in more bands with TC than I had. I have no idea how long the two knew each other, but there was a mutual respect and admiration between them. As a drummer, Jim’s style fit neatly between those of Led Zeppelin’s John Bonham and The Who’s Keith Moon. He was a heavy-handed wild man with a heart of gold, and he will be missed.
