There is a new movie out called Birdman (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/birdman_2014/). It's an interesting and thoroughly entertaining film with a great cast. The reason I post about it here is that the soundtrack is essentially a Brian Blade* solo... all the way through. Not just one 30 second solo, but solo drum accompaniment more or less throughout greater portion of the entire film.

edit* It appears that Sanchez is the main cat and that Blade is involved somehow, but this is more about Sanchez...

I thought it was Antonio Sanchez.

Well, that article certainly and clearly credits it to Sanchez. I checked the credits in the theater and saw something called "BB Beats" by Brain Blade in the musical credits (also listed in all music as contributor to the soundtrack http://www.allmusic.com/artist/brian-bl ... 43/credits) . So, they are both involved but it appears Sanchez is indeed the main drummer, not Blade. My bad.
