Legendary Drummer of Deep Purple reviews Yoyoka's latest cover "Burn" 

For the guy who posted a "Dislike", he knows NOTHING about music !! If you don't have anything good to say, don't be an ass. Just go away. This is a masterpiece.

Seeing Ian see this makes me tear up a little. I hope he understands how much he's meant to us

11 years old!! That is just insane!! Apart from the unbelievable technical ability I have no idea how she has the strength and stamina to play that as an mere 11-year-old. Simply stunning. Scary! What is her playing going to be like when she is 20??!! 😳😳😲😲

She made me smile , Ian Pace smile, and 125,000 RU-vidrs smile👍🏼😀😆😀😉

"this is a bit I usually get wrong"... Ian- you're a legend.

I don't understand and I'm not sure why but I shed a tear every time I see this young lady play there is hope for the next generation

“Best thing is she’s having fun!” Ian Paice

I can't believe her drive and energy - she is relentless! There is no tension in her hands or arms. She is totally relaxed. She is going to be a force to be reckoned with in the drum world!

I grew up recognizing Ian as one of the all time greats, to see him giving a compliment to this kid is very heart warming.

He genuinely seems to enjoy watching this young drummer.

Having those accolades from a legend like Ian Paice is monstrous. Hope to watch this young lady one day.

Yoyoka leaves me grinning from ear to ear; she is just amazing. Fun to see Ian comment. Classic rock will live on forever.

Ian Pace was my idol as a young drummer, does my heart good to just watch her and listen to his critique.

Ian, you said something right there that really makes sense “she’s having fun. ” When I played drums or guitar I took it so seriously to the point where I became stressed. It shouldn’t be that way, should be enjoyable.❤

Yoyoka plays everything like she owns it.

Ian Paice - one of the greatest rock drummers ever. Listen to ”Made in Japan” - live! Absolutely flawless!

Ian is my favorite snare player in rock! I love his drumming. This CHILD can only get better & better Incredible work 😊

Seeing the pleasure on Ian's face is just wonderful

Hearing “she nailed it” coming from the originator is such a tribute to her skill. That fill at 5:21-5:22. Phenomenal.

Ian, i´m 63 and a HEAVY METAL fan. But i had started with you and DEEP PURPLE. Thank you. Saw you first as a 15 year old teen wtith my one year younger brother in march 23 1975 in DORTMUNDER WESTFALEN HALLE.

God Bless You Ian. Thank you for the music.

I love his "YES YES"-reaction! ❤

Seeing Ian getting more and more into the song as it progresses is great to see

this is the power of RU-vid. Really moved watching Ian's smiling!

A tribute to you sir. She was great. Enjoyed your music and you are an amazing drummer. Love your reaction and loved seeing the joy in your face as you watched like a proud father.

This type of video is my jam. I love watching the originators watching up-and-comers covering their music. Who better to judge the quality and to praise the performance. Great stuff and thanks to all who created and participated.

I don't know enough about drumming, but have seen a lot of her vids and she seems to never make any mistakes to my untrained eyes and ears.

great review by the master, he was impressed

I’m 71. Always understand that our greatness comes from standing on the shoulders of those before us. Kid’s great. Nice to see the ‘shoulders’ watch and enjoy.

Hy Sir Paice. The first record I could by, was Deep Purple in Rock. Still have it since1973. Thank you to making so many of us to turn to hard Rock.!!!

Kids like Yoyoka are why I bother to get out of bed in the morning. Her joy, talent and appreciation for such a great drum piece is ecstatic. If I were Ian, I'd write her into my last Will & Testament. 😄 This made my day/week/month.

Absolutely amazing!

This is the best drum piece in history

Ian was the "Fill" Master ...One of my top 3 Drummers. YoYoka is hot on his tail...great stuff!!

Ian...you fool no one. I m 62 and still playing that song daily since i was 14!

Look at Ian! 60 years older and so impressed as I was with him over 50 years ago! And I thought HE was Asian!

Wow, this is just fantastic. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

IAN likes it !! You can see from IAN's comments and expressions, he approves 110% !!

The love of music. Ian I grew up listening to Deep Purple in the 70s. Loved it! I still have my original LPs! Thank you for all of the good memories!

I just weeped to see this greatness in both of you. Extraordinary what we as humans are capable of. Just an amazing talents.

Hard work matters, but no substitute for god given talent. All we can do is admire it.

The actual best thing, it has to be said, is Ian is having fun that the newly minted Prof Yoyoka is having fun! 😁👍

YR DAUGHTER IS SO VERY AWESOME, PROTECT HER @ ALL COST

I was on the fence with her playing after watching her on When the Levee Breaks but after this I am blown away by her drumming. Play on drummer!

FANTASTIC MUSICIAN I SMILED ALL THE WAY THROUGH THAT MANY THANKS.

That smile says it all.

Simply Amazing! And as Lady Gaga would probably say, "Yoyoka Soma was born this way" 🥁

You Go, YO !! And to Mr. IAN PACE .. you’re so kind and genuine, teachable comments, graceful compliments, CLASS ❤sir you are world class too. Smoke on the Water of course was my fav in junior high !

Even the great Paice was disturbed by what he saw

I just Love this! Thank You!

“Cheeky little thing. And I like it.” Well said, Sir Ian.

Ian Paice, one of the absolute GOATs ! A massive inspiration ! We are not worthy !

_"That cheeky little face. I like it."_ --Deep Purple drummer Ian Paice.

Fantastic ... as said the great Mr paice

Deep purple was my first rock concert on the Strombringer tour. I had that album and a recording of Made in Japan on reel to reel and I replicated the Mule at Jr High talent show on a 6 pc set of Rogers I borrowed. i used all my drum corps rudiments and had a great time.

Wow a legendary drummer and one in the making incredible

if one of the best drummers says yeah...yeah it is...thank you once again Sir Icon

I hope to see the great man react to her tribute to Speed King.

The discipline it takes to play this is off the charts!!

The best of Burn song is the Ian P. performance on drumms.

To have a legend like Pace watch..wow

Pleasure.

Isn't that amazing I have been watching your Yoko play my favorite songs for some time now she is great

I remember Perfect Srangers tour 1985 Ian Paice had his signature in laser shit was dope a memory for sure

Love this!

W O W !!! People pause a moment and imagine the band of young, 12-13 yo, that might be assembled...Taj Farrant, Toby Lee, Yoyoka, Courtney from BGT & AGT as lead vocal...

The random bits of magic you stumble across on RU-vid. Just watched Highway star before this. Fantastic.

Amazing

I have heard so many bands covering Burn and the drummers have always fouled up the drum part because they simply can’t match Ian’s swing feel. He is by far my favourite rock drummer and truly one of a kind. This is a great effort and all the miserable critics need to lighten up a bit🤘🏻

Master Ian Paice!!

Incredible

Every music, which combine a bit of classical music is amazing. Burn - DP as well as Bohemian rhapsody - Queen or Because - Beatles. I love that! Thanks to these genious.

ES EXTRAORDINARIA ❤

really difficult thing. Good Job

Legend…thanks ….

Incredible abilities! She's only 11! She's better than ADULTS Ian is right You can either do this Or you can't. She's just a KID! I notice each hand has equal power Just amazing for a child

I consider Ian Paice is the best Drummer,vhe can never be compared

Eu não sei quantos se deram conta ... Paice é o único músico do Purple que esteve desde o início. participou de todas as fases. Eram dois: Paice e Lord, mas Jon Lord se foi... Paice é uma lenda viva. É surpreendente que não tenha se aposentado e, ao contrário, esteja criando esses conteúdos novos e compartilhando com a gente. Long live Paice!

Don't criticize the young people. I'am a fingerstyle guitarist and most of my collection is now rearrangements by Filipinos, Koreans, Japanese, Chinese.

Wow!! So good!

hes has to be humbled knowing his inspiration is still inspiring

Now the legend is born once again for DEEP PURPLE.

Tous les batteurs doivent beaucoup à ce grand monsieur Très émouvant le regard de Paice sur sa relève d autant plus que il n à plus l énergie pour le jouer ainsi, même s il est un des rares batteurs de 75 ans à avoir encore une grande activité !

Absolutely lovely 😍

Great Legend!

Obviously she is musical servant ❤

the power of deep purple. 💪💪💪

Watching Ian smile and bang his head while reviewing her was an awesome acknowledgment of appreciation. 🤘

AMAZING. Barney Glasgow 😎

Tony Williams said to learn everything and then go out and forget it. I agree.

Paice still Nr.1 !

Badass!! Holy Mother!!!

super nice bloke....ian paice.... so was his old bandmate jon lord....

イアン・ペイスの温かい表情が何とも言えず好きです。

👍👍👍

"I like it". 'Nuff said.

Well that was special

“ this is the bit I usually get wrong “ 😂

以前見てました！Mr.イアンペイス直々に！ずっと見てる！この子家宝にせんとねこの動画！Mr.イアン・ペイス素晴らしい🎉

Wow.
