I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Louie Bellson! Not only a great musician but a really nice guy!

@vicdante1648 4 месяца назад

Where did all the good music go? Louie always sounded great. Doc and the band were superb, as usual..

@rayszymarek2920 5 лет назад

No matter what drum manufacturer whether it be Rodgers Ludwig Slingerland Gretch Fibes or any company that makes drums. Its the Man behind the drum set. Here the late great Louie Bellson could play any set of drums and make them sound great. We all miss Louie.

One of the greatest if not THE greatest big Band Drummers . Don't take my word The "Duke" agrees

Excellent. One of the best. If not the best Big Band Drummer.

Louie Bellson....gentleman drummer!

@vincentrizzi4929 2 года назад

Louie BellSon was not only a Master, but also wrote tunes. Imo, he was smoother than rich and just as fast ,if not faster.

@yellowquantum4240 Год назад

Great analogy for sure...Buddy Rich was drums actually a human drumset.

Luigi Paulino Alfredo Francesco Antonio Balassoni aka Louie Bellson one of the truly great drummers of all time.

@bobbysands6923 Год назад

Great drummer, wonderful, modest human being. And Rogers really made great drums back then. Thank God we still have these videos.

My dad Buddy Hampton, took lessons from Louie Bellson during the 1950s in New York.

Best drums of their time.

@dinodeluca6210 6 лет назад

Yes those Rogers drums were the best....sounded great and very sturdy as well!

@spercoco 5 лет назад

I have an old set of Rogers from 1972 with the larger sized drums (24 inch bass, 13 and 14 inch rack toms and 16 and 18 inch floor toms) and I also have a set of Remo (which Louie later endorsed) in similar sizes on double bass kit but I never set them up side by side to see how they differ in sound. That's something I should do. Of course to do any sort of sound comparison one would need to put the same heads on and try to use the same tuning.

Steve Percoco that sounds like the set up of Ed Shaughnessy‘s kit.

First big band drummer I saw live was Roy Burns. A year later in '74 ? I saw Louie at Disneyland. Playing the new Pearl drums. Both fantastic artists. A couple of years later, I saw Buddy's band at Disneyland. Well, now that was in a whole different league!!! RIP to all three.

Louie played many drum brands over the years. Love to know his favourite.

@thecrippledrummer 4 года назад

He played Slingerland, Gretsch, Rogers, Pearl, and Remo. I never asked him but I would bet he would’ve said Remo...but more out of loyalty to Remo Belli. That’s the type of guy Louie was. One of the nicest people I’ve ever known.

@erikrupp692 Год назад

That was a great performance by Louie and the band. I wish the direction and camerawork were half as good. (Up until Louie's solo the camerawork was pretty bad, and the shot selections by the director were not very good.) But the bottom line is the band and Louie were fantastic! That's a really good album, too! (150 MPH)

Yes, and I still have my own 1967 Dyna-Sonic. In my opinion it's the best snare drum ever made, both in quality and sound.

@gordoh7634 2 года назад

Buddy - the fastest ratatat big band drummer. Louie - the most melodic and innovative (double bass drums, a Chinese pang cymbal and later roto toms). Also, IMO, a prince of a guy.
