He added a creative piece to the band. He really left his mark. Great sound.

Listened to a few songs from Give Way and In My Tree is the definitive live version for sure. The whole band is tight and super into it

Add Immortality to that list. Both are nuts on that live album.

"Big Beats Big Times" is an ever-evolving project, revolving around the Istanbul based drummer Berke Can Ozcan (123, Marika), derived from his wish to collaborate with more artists in his field. Özcan asked other drummers who had accompanied and inspired him during his career to record drum tracks, which would go on to serve as a basis for a very unconventional and poignant album.
"Full Moon Theory” is a culmination of a three-year creative process, showcasing the results of meticulous hard work invested by Özcan and cocomposer Burak Irmak. The atmospheric density of their work spans eight complex arrangements, oscillating between hypnotic Dub, well tempered Trip-Hop and gloomy Electronica ...
The compositional brilliance and musical quality of "Full Moon Theory" is as distinguished and notable as the list of drummers and guest musicians featuring on the piece. These include: Kenny Wollesen (John Zorn), Erland Dahlen (Nils Petter-Molvær), Steve Nistor (Brian Blade’s Mama Rosa Band), Blair Sinta (Alanis Morrissette), Jack Irons (Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chilli Peppers), Craig "Santi" Santiago Official Fanpage (New Zion Tio), Arto Tunçboyacıyan (Armenian Navy Band) and many more.

I didn't know that they played W.M.A. with Jack. For some reason, I never thought they did. Is this widely known? Why didn't anyone tell me about this?
Not that I'm surprised that they did play it with him. It's right in his wheelhouse.

That may be the only time they did. It wasn’t much more than that, if not.

Jack has such a unique 'voice' on the drums, which is no small feat.

I listened to mirror ball today and I think it's my favorite work of any drummer.

Agree. Neil Young said he was very impressed with Jack’s drumming.

If I’m being honest, I’m much more impressed with the bass player.
