I was honored to be asked to supply a drum solo soundtrack for the Pearl Drums 75th Anniversary Time Line Video. They had an initial outline cut idea using the drum solo I did at Drumeo in ’17. I used that rudimental theme but in 3/4 time and took the ideas elsewhere, but still dancing in and out of the main theme in 3/4 and 4/4. This was an honor and I hope you enjoy the 7 minute improvisation. Thanks to Eric Dorris for filming, and to everyone at PMI and Pearl world wide. Happy anniversary! (I'm using Masterworks Studio Recipe with Maple/Gum shells and Black Limba in Black Burst finish with gold hardware. The snare is a Masterworks hybrid: Brass shell, Reference Pure Lugs, triple flanged hoops, Masterworks badge, all rose gold plated. Sabian Cymbals, Remo Drumheads, Promark Drumsticks, Audix microphones.)

Insanely musical. Now that's a drum solo.

@rosssmithe 3 года назад

Todd is arguably the best drummer alive today. Power, precision, versatility, and groove... He really has it all at a superior level!

@glennperea2604 3 года назад

@ross smithe. Totally agree with you, 100%. He truly is that good.

I can think of others like Dave Weckl or Vinnie, but yeah he is truely one of the greatest

@Steven Pounsett Virgil Donati would destroy Thomas Lang with just his pinky finger Look bruh, can we just stop this "I have the bigger d measuring contest" in drumming. Just because you know some drummer who are way better than you or I can ever be in our lifetimes doesn't mean you should brag about it on the internet. Stop living vicariously through Thomas Lang. You never contributed anything

@madsenmotorsports9950 3 года назад

@Steven Pounsett Lang can’t hold a candle stick to Todd! Todd is the man. I can’t stand Lang’s drumming. Todd is so smooth and perfect timing.

I just piddled a little! LOL! Holy crap! Have you EVER seen someone tear apart a kit with such precision AND power playing traditional (let alone any grip) ... purely amazing!

Mr. Sucherman you are one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE DRUMMERS!!! You just seem like a friend I would have been hanging with during my days growing up in Schaumburg Il. Great guy, Great attitude, Unbelievable Talent. Seeing you play at Guitar Center several months ago, in Lake Forest, Ca. was one of the best times I have had in years. Styx id still one of the best bands EVER!!!!! God Bless you, your health, and your Family. Love you Maaaaan:)

@zmajo33 3 года назад

IMO This is undoubtedly one of the best solos of all time. Mr. Sucherman, you are a master of your craft. So musical. Thank you for this video. And thank you Pearl for picking him.

@SimonLopezPsymon 3 года назад

What a solo! Love the sound / tuning of the toms. And the solo is very musical and not boring at all for a long drum solo despite the fact it's technical too... Todd Suchermann is one of the greatest nowadays !

@supergrovah2729 3 года назад

I only "discovered" Todd about 2 years ago. He has become, almost overnight, my favorite drummer. Neil will always be #1, but Todd is a FANTASTIC example of how good you can be when you practice (and I'm sure some natural talent doesn't hurt either) and love doing it. Not to mention, he's my age..... Fantastic piece, Todd. Thanks for sharing it. PS - The rim-diddy is just fantastic.

@jamesweldon9726 3 года назад

Neil will always be my favorite, too. But, this was awesome--over 7 minutes, NO ELECTRONICS!

@davejohnson607 3 года назад

Todd could play pots and pans empty 5 gallon buckets and trash can lids and still sound amazing.one of the best out there.hopefully I get a chance to see him live with styx.

@davepoko3080 3 года назад

This guy is a monster player. Truly an honor to watch you play. From the beginnings winning several guitar center drum off's to playing with the Falling Wallendas on to holding down the fort for Styx. . Several projects between. Pearl Drums couldn't have asked for a better player to represent them than you. Todd.. Happy Anniversary to Pearl Drums. Truly awesome and an inspiration to all Drummers..

HOLY MOLY! Just when I'm thoroughly convinced you are the best drummer in the world, you come out with something BETTER. Damn! I hear the homage to your solo from Drumeo, I hear the homage to Mr. Smith. I see everything that you have taught us in Rock Drumming Masterclass, all of which we are all still working on trying to play at half that speed! The double bass at 6:15 is absolutely out of this world. Once again, you have outdone yourself my friend. IN(f-ing)CREDIBLE. We're not worthy, we're not worthy!

People use words like underrated, or not as well known to describe you, and your playing all the time.I’ll just say massively appreciated. Been listening since your start. I took my 13 year old son to the Cylclorama tour in Loredo, TX. Dynamite show. I’ve seen Styx 7 times since then. I know you were with Styx before that, I loved the compilation you arranged, I’d love to hear it again.

@billbigler1366 2 года назад

Can only add one or two things to all the great Comments here. I love the way Todd hits a crash cymbal with his right hand. Looks like he is pitching a baseball. So athletic. And I took a 6 month course with him online on Drumeo in 2019. He said he was not very good at double pedals on the bass drum. What? That was amazing toward the end. Also as some have said Todd is a very humble and nice human being. He has earned the right to be an a..hole being so talented and musical. But he is not. Just wow.

Look without a doubt he's one of the best drummers in the world if not the best. I know there's a lot of fast and innovative drummers out there, but he's hard to keep up with. I think Rush should get back together and use him as the drummer. Neil would approve I'm sure

I would love to see a gathering of the great drummers of today get hooked up to a brainwaves machine to see how everything lights up in the brain as they play. Todd, Terry Bozzio, Dennis Chambers, Dave Weckl, etc....and compare the different readouts from the various drummers.
