Tommy Igoe + Birdland Big Band - "New Ground" HD 

Kenny Asher on piano is AWESOME!

I could listen to this all day.

Musicians that can actually play, how refreshing!

Tommy plays effortlessly.... and beautifully....

Great little big band, Tommy is just one hell of a great drummer to watch and can learn a lot from.

Saw this band last night. They were so tight it was crazy.

Absolutly amazing!!!! That's fun!!!!! 😉🙃😅😄😃😀

this guy is the most amazing drummer ever!

Tommy can play so tasty and simple. I love it.

Great performance--thanks for sharing this. I've seen the drum solo section elsewhere and it's nice to see it in its musical context!!

My goodness they are tight!

I almost got emotional when the band came back in after Tommy’s solo. Sick playing by all!!

Thrilled they came to Cranston, RI. Permanently obsessed.

Man this whole group is just rocking this song. Absolutely amazing.

You Go Igoe !!!!!!!!!! perfect.................

Tommy Masters!

TOMMY IGOE! He is having more fun than everyone else on stage combined. Is he the bandleader in this group?

Fantastic. :-)

Smooth ~ With Fire~!

According to Tommy Igoe's definitions from his groove essentials, I believe he is playing a Soca and then a Songo. Some would interpret it slightly different and say that's a calypso groove instead of a soca. They both come from Trinidad, you can read more by searching "Soca Music", "Calypso Music", and the like on Wikipedia.

The Groove hat 5:30 is just wow !

Great.

Going to see them this Wednesday!

AWESOME!!!

New york city rocks!

Agora que eu vi Tom Kennedy... muuuuuiiito bom! :-D

Dans la lignée directe de One more once et de B Rich, magnifique !!

Detta band hörde jag på Birdland i NY hösten 2016, mumma för en trummis

Buddy Rich would be proud!! Great drummer!

The lead trumpet is the lead for the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra.... I would imagine he is subbing and sight reading this.... WOW

@JMON4777 Thanks for your input! I just recently discovered they are synonymous. :)

Rod midleton...nice tenor saxophone solo.

solos are Rob Middleton on tenor, Kenny Ascher on piano, and of course tommy on drums

who the fuck can dislike this video, this is incredibly tasty!

I love the paino.does anyone have the PDF file of it? though I know it is impossible

Also the chart has samba written in.

Is Tommy Igoe any relation to the great Sonny Igoe in the Woody Herman band of tha Fifties.

Amazing tune! What kind of background was this song created in? I really want to learn about it~~

1:16 -->TOmmy's drumgasm face

What mouthpiece does rob Middleton use?looks like something by Morgan.....

Besides tommy, I love the piano player from Georgia, and most importantly, GLENN DREWES!

only for the drummer: Birdland form Chad Smith :D

@AKtifosi the one who can't play a tasty song. tommy is GOD

who is the conga player?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

antonio cassano alla batteria

fuck I thought they were going to play birdland by weather report...

they should change oh my gadd to oh my igoe

Every drummer should be forced to study this by law!

This kind of taste should be illegal.

all sounds the same

dw doesnt fit in..
