Love Vinnie's Snare

perhaps in this ... ( 3 days ago by juanbarros88)

perhaps in this occasion Vinnie played to impress people and he also wanted to see how much his technique had improved... but he's so much more skilled, He was probably into technique and speed in those days (i mean around that week, not back in the decade). His drumming is not always like that, he even plays simple stuff with great taste. sometimes he overplays when they let him.

I used to like Gadd ... ( 3 days ago by juanbarros88)

I used to like Gadd, I got bored of his way of playing and I got more interested in other drummers like Weckl and Colaiuta. Gadd is a very different drummer. his approach to the kit is like weird, not that I dont understand rhythm figures, Is just that I dont like... some of his phrases, how he places his ideas, some of his ideas are weird. But that makes his very unique and I cant deny he got something to offer to the world of percussion and he has a big name.

Gadd has some nice ... ( 3 days ago by juanbarros88)

Gadd has some nice licks n very useful ones n he's good 'cause he does very well what a drummer is suppose to do; time keeping and accompaniment. He got fame with his latin grooves... here everybody went nuts when they heard the cowbell used with a good paradiddle, hehe. But for my taste, VInnie & Weckl r better, Vinnie in particular. & I also think that in technique VInnie>Weckl>Gadd. Gadd is all that but I dont like what goes through his mind when phrasing and combining good ideas any more

Vinnie n Weckl are ... ( 3 days ago by juanbarros88)

Vinnie n Weckl are more skilled than Mr. Gadd (with respect). Yeah that cowbell was nice and all and the army solo but there's more to drumming that that and anyway he does that all the time. When he runs out of ideas, he just goes mozambique on the cowbell. It was all right until he overused paradiddles, cowbell n that lick he does all the time which sometimes sounds misplaced(not that it sounds out of time). Vinnie uses displacement, polyrhythms, borrowed time but they sound well placed

I have to say that ... ( 2 days ago by treasures91)

I have to say that Gadd was by far the most musical drummer out of the three in this instance, in my opinion. Vinnie has great technique and Weckl has a very fluid style but Gadd has such a feel, every time! Yes perhaps his licks are overfamiliar by now, but they're incredibly original and have been imitated by everyone since.

well can argue with ... ( 2 days ago by juanbarros88)

well can argue with you, we are all different and we all have different perspectives, I'll have to accept the opinion of others. In your case Gadd's feeling doesnt go with my taste as much as it does with yours . what matters the most is that you enjoy what you listen to, regardless of what others think.

Gadd is the most ... ( 2 days ago by Trardragon)

Gadd is the most influincial alive drummer today... my fav ever is still Bonzo.

I think u can't say who is the best one... Every drummer has a different style (gadd above all). But I'm sure this is the best drum-video ever!!!!

How about Elvin ... ( 1 day ago by houseote)

How about Elvin Jones for influential drummer alive. Or did he die? I mean, Elvin pretty much lay the foundation for the latin style of drumming that Gadd has taken to another level. I don't disagree that Gadd is a major influence, but to say the most that is still alive is a bit over the top. But that is my opinion.

Weckyl = melodic ... ( 1 day ago by jimbox666)

Weckyl = melodic cymbal work with nice double strokes(but on drum set?...really...come on)favorite song like solo Vinnie = super nice chops with the ability to move both ways on the set. plus ebony heads because thats hilarious. really nice sounding kit nonetheless. Gadd = by far the funnest to watch plus an amzing feel for the groove. probably the drummer who had the most fun.
