In the Studio with Drummer Gary Mallaber (2014)
*** (out of 4)
This 17-minute interview with Gary Mallaber can be found on the Shout Factory! release of PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE, Brian DePalma's cult classic from 1974. Mallaber talks about how he got involved with the film and then we go into great details about how the songs were recorded. Fans of the movie will certainly enjoy getting to hear the behind-the-scenes stories but I think the people that will enjoy this featurette the most are drummers. Mallaber talks in great detail about drumming and the work that can be done during drumming and if you're into this type of thing then you're going to get some great information here. I think fans of the film will get a lot of information from the interview but at 17-minutes it does start to drag at spots.
