I love this video. I watch it once every few months.If you guys want to see something check this out
Vinnie… Dave…. Steve…. No last names necessary…. I first saw this 1990 as a student at PITT…. Absolutely mind blowing stuff.
I’ve seen this clip before and it’s great.So. I want to first admit that if god bestowed us with gifts, he did not bestow me with musicianship. My art quotient is in the idea and written word, not playing or writing music.
But if we want to go geekie and to continue on to the original post (mine) in this thread: This is fantastic.
I've always preferred to say in the pocket. I've always thought that most drum solos are boring as hell. Show your chops in the structure of the song with interesting fills and interplay with the other musicians, especially the bassist and if you have a keyboard player, his left hand.I’ve seen this clip before and it’s great.
Carey ticks all the boxes for me to consider someone a great drummer. 1: Do they have great chops? Definitely. 2: Is he innovative and helping to drive drumming forward? Of course. 3: Does he know how to lay back and fit in the pocket? For sure.
Carey ticks all 3. Ringo ticks one. He can stay in the pocket and that’s about it.
PJ has had an embarrassment or riches. Dave A or MFC? They also had Dave Klauson and Jack Irons. Abruzzesse was unreal and got screwed.Yeah I just started this because the question on Twitter (which is still running by the way) was asked who is basically #4 on the Mt Rushmore of Rock Drummers with Moon, Bonham and Peart.
I said Stewart Copeland of the Police (if you listen to early Police and that Ska sound, he was just phenomenal and complex)
Chad Smith (because I think he and Flea along with Chancellor and Carey and maybe Cummerfield and Wilk) are the best rhythm sections in modern rock and of course
Tool's Danny Carey.
But yeah, Grohl, Wilk, Baker, Hawkins, Fleetwood, Bozzio, Matt Cameron, Meg White, the chick who drummed for Slater Kinney (forget her name), Adrien Young of No Doubt all are among my favorites.
Oh god. I've taken drums for 3 months now and my teacher made me watch this during a session two weeks. Unreal. Vinnie with old school left handIf you guys want to see something check this out

Was really surprised, and disappointed when they got elected to the RRHOF, they brought back Dave Krusen and not Abruzzesse.PJ has had an embarrassment or riches. Dave A or MFC? They also had Dave Klauson and Jack Irons. Abruzzesse was unreal and got screwed.
They fired him for being too into the lime light so it had to stand. He was great on vs and vitality and angel is a great rare cut; As is acoustic # 1Was really surprised, and disappointed when they got elected to the RRHOF, they brought back Dave Krusen and not Abruzzesse.
I remember when I felt this way. Then I started talking with drummers and the quickly enlightened me on how criminally underrated Ringo has always been.Ringo has no business on this list.
I dunno. I’ve been drumming for 30 years. Even debated a career as a professional musician until I decided I wanted a job when I was older. I just don’t see it. To be fair though, I can’t stand the Beatles so that general opinion probably clouds my feelings on Ringo.I remember when I felt this way.

Hey that's cool! It's so subjective so that's what makes music awesome. One of the big things I hear about Ringo and have noticed myself since is that he plays a right handed drum set up lefthanded. So it creates a unique sound that is very silky smooth. If you watch the Get Back documentary its also cool to see him jump in on any piece of music and come up with the part the other guys liked. As a guitarist I really appreciate that because drums really brings a song aliveI dunno. I’ve been drumming for 30 years.
