INDEX.HTM — The Hoke Drum List

Jeff Hoke taught the drum line at Warren Township High School, and then taught me privately at his house, a couple of times a month, for years. Somewhere in there he handed me this —three photocopied pages, four typed columns, alphabetical by drummer. Labels and catalog numbers appear exactly as he typed them: Columbia-KCS9401, not a cleaned-up reissue. Where the photocopy and the discography disagree, the photocopy wins. Read more about Jeff →

— the checkmarks are his. we think they’re the ones he owned.

All 124 records on the Hoke drum list, in the order they appear on the photocopy.
