The third album by two masters of the maladjusted, following two releases on Knitting Factory Works. Saxophonist Roy Nathanson is best known as leader of the Jazz Passengers. Pianist Anthony Coleman is well known for his work with John Zorn and Marc Ribot, and has recorded two Tzadik albums as a leader.

I Could've Been A Drum is a delightful album of traditional Sephardic tunes, beautiful ballads and crazy original numbers showing off the remarkable chemistry between two highly-engaging jazz personalities.
