  13.     I just picked up Camel's STATIONARY TRAVELLER and was surprised to
  14. hear that they used a drum machine for much (if not all) of the drumming.
  15. Paul Burgess is simply credited as playing "drums," and no machine is
  16. mentioned.  Did this guy play real drums too?
  17.  
  18.     How did I know it's a machine?  Easy -- I own the same drum
  19. machine (an E-Mu Drumulator) and its sound is very distinctive.
  20. "Fingertips" is a dead giveaway.
