Drummer Hal Blaine, who played on songs featuring Frank Sinatra, the Beach Boys and thousands of others, died of natural causes yesterday at his home in Palm Desert, California at the age of 90.

Blaine was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000. Last year he was presented with a Grammy for Lifetime Achievement.
