simon philipps: technics is only a means to play around his absolute time he plays! he plays unbelievable drum patterns, billy cobham like and even more polymetric patterns without any wiggling and wobbling, to the point. discovered him watching his heavy funk drumming with micheal schenker on 'rock bottom' live in japan 2010. what a shame that I didn't recognize him earlier... one of the greatest drummer I have the pleasure to listen to! 🙂
i wouldnt call him an absolute monster, because hes one of the few drummers ive heard that can play quietly and tastefully, rather than a turned-up-to-11-all-the-time banger like most of the rest
Maybe more of a Return to Forever feel. I LOVE Greg Howe, but McGlaughlin stands alone. Not even the great Al DiMeola can quite get to where John gets.
ahhh maaannn... the way Otmaro Ruiz is building up his solos is soooo mega! Always taking his time and really fleshing these ideas out before hitting a climax. So special and truly a work of art.

Great playing from Simon and the band. Wish you could have left in his talking to the audience so it could have felt like an entire concert. However it was nice to see so thanks for posting this!
And my band bitches about me and the size of my kit versus the size of the stage!! Props to his roadies for getting all of that gear up on a smallish stage. that's funny as hell and I'm sending this to my guitar player!!! LMAO!!!
@@jesseg1959 omg what a description. He did a small handful of shows with him, with a wig to look like Jennifer. That's like saying Satriani formally of deep purple.
