One of my heroes. I met him once (well, it was a "I'm not worthy" moment so I admired him from afar but was in the same room). It was at The Professional Drum Shop on Vine in Hollywood.

Hal could play anything, expertly, first take. One of a kind. His tom tom run on Indian Reservation still gives me chills.

But he didn't do Hawaii 5-0, John Guerin on drums and Gene Estes on timpani, not Hal as some people believe.
