Tate hörrt neben Billy Higgins, Steve Gadd un Peter Erskine to de an’ meesten upnommen Slagtüüchspeler. De Tall vun LPs oder CDs, an de he mitwarkt hett, sall woll so um un bi 700 liggen. Bekannt is he in de Apenlichkeit aber meest nicht, wat doran liggt, dat he ganz faken as Studiomusiker arbeit hett. Bi sien Kollegen aber, t.B. Peter Erskine is he bannig good ansehn.
