Great video, I can really appreciate it because I studied with Roberto, the drummer for 3 years until his untimely death, a real loss to the music world.

@gpanfili - You were indeed lucky to study with Roberto P. I first saw him in when MF came to Montreal in 1980; I was expecting to see Peter Erskine - and had no idea who RP was. My disappointment in not seeing PE quickly evaporated as Roberto played like a powerhouse and left a lasting impression on me. It's great to have these few MF videos which memorialize what a great talent he was; who knows what kind of mark he might've made in the drumming world had he lived a long and productive life..?
