Weihnachten ist zwar schon vorbei, aber ich bin erst jetzt auf dieses Video aufmerksam gemacht worden. Wirklich wunderschön. Meine absolute Hochachtung! ;-)
Cool! Ihr habt einen super Groove! Am 20.06.15 feiere ich einen runden Geburtstag im Rickenbackers nach und Ihr spielt an dem Tag auch noch dort. Ja, was möchte ich mehr? Ich freue mich auf einen rockigen Abend mit Euch!!!
Not to pop your bubble, but I found the original of the solo on a Verve-Folkways album named "Drums of India. Note for note the same, except played on tradtional Indian drums. Check it out.
Excellent drum solo!............You started and finished real close to in a gadda da vida, but then did your own solo......again, excellent, but "not in a gadda da vida". Dave
When I was a youngster the original version was played over and over again,and I have just viewed it on youtube,but this man was unbelieveble,my god I have just listened to that performace on headphones give it a try it's great.
haha my dad hasnt been playing drums for almost 30 years and im only 18 but whenever i ask him to play he does this kinda thing too :P, starts off with that solo thn just keeps going into some crazy jungle stuff lol
I know nothing about drumming at all, but I must say I far prefer this style of drumming to, say, John Bonham's. Nothing against Bonham, but this actually has a groove to it. It's almost melodical, the way Ron Bushy played this solo.
It is always a crowd pleaser to give them what they expect, and then a bit more that they didn't. If you only go and play the exact same things they are used to hearing for all the songs you might as well be a high paid jukebox. This happens to be a song that has wide openings for piano, guitar, and (of course) drum solos after the originals. People may or may not like what you are doing,. but they listen to it because it catches their attention. I'd have to say,."Right on Man!"
@guitarbumx "An original" -- "the original" is just that -- laid down for the ages in a single version. The original artist isn't able to revise or elaborate. So, like anything by da Vinci, Beethoven or Shakespeare, (or Zeppelin for that matter), a copy/imitation/facimile should be, at the very least, respectful. Imagine Junior Walker's solo in "Urgent"/Foreigner played as unrecognizeable, comprised of random, aimless sax riffs -- largely designed to demonstrate prowess -- yet absent of soul.
First of all thank you for your comment.Perhaps you should try to make it better. Not everything has to be a cover - if you ask me. This is an own and extended version of the drum solo.Of course I can do it the same way like the original, but in perpetuity it's odd and boring.If you a pro-musician you will notice that this solo is much more elaborated and complex.Have a nice evening!!
