About Me

Johny Barbata. One of the greatest Rock & Roll drummers of all time, his name is synonymous with the best in music was borne in Passaic, New Jersey, April 1, 1945. Now, he shares the days and nights of his life as a star musician on the road with hit groups such as the Turtles; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; Steven Stills, and Neil Young, as well as Jefferson Airplane; and Jefferson Starship.

Already a established session drummer when he joined The Turtles, he was one of the pioneering drummers who converted pop music rhythms from the down-beat rhythms of the 195o's to the off-beat rhythms that have dominated ever since. Johny lived the high-life most people only dreamed about and he met challenges rarely experienced. In this first person narrative, he relates the stories that shaped his life, with behind-the-scenes and after-the-show details. The life and times of this superstar drummer and his encounters around the world are chronicled from his earliest days when he discovered music to the tour stops in Hollywood, Las Vegas, San Francisco, New York, London, and beyond.
