Drummer Cafe Tribute to William F Ludwig II

Bart Elliott and the folks over at the Drummer Cafe have recently posted up a WONDERFUL written and video tribute to William F Ludwig II who just passed away.

The Ludwig legacy began in 1909 when William F. Ludwig Sr. and uncle, Theobald Ludwig, created the Ludwig & Ludwig Drum Company.
