Yes indeedy, Bill Cosby on his short-lived drumming career is a classic!

With Jack Benny on the side, no less.

Actually, The Cos really does know the rudiments and the kit, I once got to see him sit in with the bigband at Playboy Jazzfest, he may not be a pro-grade drummer, but he can hold court when he isn't mugging for the laughs.

Here's Bill in Philly workin' a bit with a Drumline of kids, wish it were longer because at one point he got kinda serious with the kids, you know, show 'em what's up...

Music is part of the well-rounded education.

Or at least, it should be.
