ONLY Neil Peart has the right to give a thumbs down.... and he certainly wouldn't do that with drumming of Such a high standard... so whoever gave the thumbs down....... think shame of yourself...
Right at 7:30 it starts with that hi-hat and snare riff. Same as the one played earlier in the song. However, this one is different than the riff from before. Attention to detail is insane with this cover. Remembering all of these on such long songs requires not only skill but time studying and learning the progression of the song. Superb work.
i've been playing in a rush tribute band for over 20 years. i've studied every aspect of neil peart, even having lessons from neil himself, and i have to say this is an awesome cover of camera eye. whoever gave the three thumbs down obviously doesn't appreciate good drumming. nicely done!
This IS shit from my childhood. Rush was my #1 influence on a music career that lasted a good 20 years. The fact that this is here blows me away. Especially since I have kids now and I have done the multi-instrumentalist bit along with mixer and producer for a number of years (kids, btw, are mesmerized by ALL these videos I have been playing them). I could only wish I was a competent as our said benefactor. Camera Eye was always one of my fav Rush songs. I cannot understand why there are not hundreds of thousands of subs. EVERY Neil Peart fan deserves this. I love how we can't see the face. Just the work, the action. Please include some sort of donation something somewhere so I can give you SOMETHING for your enjoyment of playing what you love (and my watching it). The professor on the drum kit...
Two things become glaringly apparent when I watch these highly commendable drum covers : the sheer brilliance of Rush as a whole .. & the absolute genius of Professor Neil Peart ! Well done! 👍👏👏👏
Man, RIP Neil. I've been binging your videos these past few days as we have learned the best drummer ever has passed into the next realm. Seriously, best Rush drum covers on youtube. Best camera angle, hitting every note with ease, a setup very similar to that of Neil, and great sound quality. Plus nearly all of the Rush catalog documented for all to see for generations to come. You've certainly earned yourself a subscriber and should have far more than you do. Thanks for these, and thanks for really honoring and highlighting the skill and degree to which Neil crafted his drum parts.
This makes me appreciate Neil’s talent even more. Because the drums are louder than the background track I can hear a lot more nuance and detail than from listening to this song numerous times and seeing the greatest band of all time live numerous times Excellent cover.
Incredible. I have had dreams about being able to play this song at this level, but unfortunately cannot yet. You on the other hand, mimic the god and originator of these beats in great detail. Sick!!
Holy $^*#!!!!! I've found the Rush drum cover promised land. Well done, Sterling! If the rest of your Rush covers are as good as this, I won't be disappointed.
My nick name growing up by everyone who knew me was Geddy lee Harris for my love of playing rush and maiden.😂 I'm a bass player and I could watch your videos all day. You nail the feel and little details that must be there. Well done
Beautifully done! I have been a RUSH fan all of my life, I have no idea how many times I have listened to The Camera Eye, never appreciated the complexity until I watched this overhead view.
Sadly, Neil Peart has passed away, January 7, 2020, at the age of 67. We will remember you, Neil! (www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/neil-peart-rush-obituary-936221/)
One of my fav tracks to this day your mix volume was a touch loud but you did a great job playing it I have been playing bass for 35 years and loved working on geds bass lines as well one little victory is a real powerhouse as well 🥁🎸
Well done sir. That's the best rendition I've seen in a long time. Love the sound of the drums on the low end. They almost seem to resonate as the base note takes over and you don't know where it ends and begins. Would like to see more high toms as Neil did in that song, but that's just me being picky. Again good job
To get all those different fills and cymbals down, WOOOOOOW!!! Amazing man!!! Are you memorizing all this or somehow referencing something? If memorizing, how many times do you go through it before recording? As you know, Neil RARELY ever did the same fill twice. I don't even think he would play this THIS accurately live, honestly. Major props man!!!
