Songs You Would Be Able To Identify w/ Drums Alone

"Keep A-Knockin'" by Little Richard (or for the purposes of this topic, Charles Connor... who's still alive!)

 

The Clash-"Tommy Gun", "Janie Jones"
D.O.A.-"World War III"
Stiff Little Fingers-"Alternative Ulster"

 

This one would have been in my memory decades ago, so it’s a bit distant, maybe a few others might know this today by drums alone:

Steve Gadd and Ringo and Linda on tambourine.

 

Could you tap your toe or something at the exact instant the instrumentation comes in every single time?

 

Another life Iron Maiden. Toms in the intro
Walk on the moon. Police Copeland´s Hi hats
Red rain - Peter Gabriel Copeland´s Hi hats

 

Get back

 

I’m no great musicologist. So it would have to something pretty obvious for me e.g.:
Pink Floyd - (intro to) Time
Explosions in the Sky - Have You Passed Through This Night (3’00 mark onwards)

 

Genesis - Los Endos
Black Sabbath - Fairies Wear Boots
The Police - Walking On The Moon

Photograph Def Leppard
Metal Health Quiet Riot
Moby Dick Led Zeppelin (most obvious)
Fire Of Unknown Origin Blue Oyster Cult
