Hunt Sales
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hunt Sales (born 1954) is a rock and roll drummer who has played with Todd Rundgren, his brother Tony Sales, Iggy Pop and Tin Machine.
In 1976, he played drums with the hard rock power trio Paris, formed by former Fleetwood Mac guitarist/songwriter Bob Welch. This trio (which included ex-Jethro Tull bassist Glenn Cornick) was short lived, releasing two albums for Capitol Records. Hunt played and sang backup vocals on the second Paris LP, Big Towne, 2061.
In 1977 Hunt, along with brother Tony, provided the rhythm section for the Iggy Pop album Lust for Life. David Bowie's memories of their contribution to the recording led him to invite the pair to join Tin Machine in the late 1980s.
Sales' father is the 1950s/60s television comedian Soupy Sales. As of April 2007, Hunt Sales resides in Nashville, Tennessee, where he produces and does session work. He has a daughter, Cali Sales, born in 1990.
