Lfalex v1.1 Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Now we may all be bassists together, but every so often I hear a bit of drumming that's so "on the button" that I can't help but go "WOW!" Here's a few from today's listening; The Flesh is Weak (Judy Tzuke) Going Back to My Roots (Odyssey) - Which in its unabridged form also contains a gorgeously squishy wah-infested w**k-free guitar solo Raining Blood (Slayer) - Yes, really. Dave Lombardo somehow imbues some sections with a degree of swing against the will of his bandmates! Quote
V4lve Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Just been watching some video of Will Calhoun (Living Colour). He's pretty cool. Quote

Doddy Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 That video of Brain proves that a good player will still sound good on crappy gear :brow: As far as wicked drumming...Steve Gadd is the Ultimate. Dave Weckl keeps getting better. JoJo Mayer is killing it. Gene Krupa is still brilliant,as is Buddy Rich. I could go on....................... Quote
RhysP Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Bill Bruford. Danny Carey. Gavin Harrison. Simon Phillips. Jeff Pocaro. David Francolini. And a thousand others. I love listening to great drummers - I'd far rather hear a drum solo than a bass solo. Quote
EBS_freak Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Pete Ray Biggin... he's going to be the best thing on X Factor tonight... Quote
EBS_freak Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Talking of Pete Biggin and X Factor... This is why Dan Pearce should have got through... but hey, X Factor is a sham... (Pete Ray on drums in the background...) Interesting choice of notes at 1:19...! and 3:50...? Edited October 18, 2009 by EBS_freak Quote

xilddx Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) I've always loved this one. The part at 2:14 is legendary Bear in mind he was 19 years old at the time, I believe Edited October 18, 2009 by silddx Quote

Chris2112 Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Neil Peart on "Prime Mover", so good it's stupid. Quote
Spoombung Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Funny. I favourite a lot of drummers on Youtube... but don't particularly like playing with them. They make too much noise. Quote
Zombywoof Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Ralph Humphrey who played with Frank Zappa is a quality drummer. I also like the way this guy grooves. Keeps it really nice and simple. Quote
Zombywoof Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Sorry to be so obvious but........ [b] John bonham [/b] There, someone had to say it! Quote
Mr. Foxen Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 This is the one I keep coming back to for ridiculousness: Quote
