@blapis89 guess he wanted to dress down incase joe, in all the madness, splashed some awesome on his best suit

[MrDrumsPhilAmbros]

[ANinjaBurrito]

Dude at 1:00... epic one hand-ness.

[antoniodcz]

RIP a great drummer

[yukihiro4962]

ええわっ！

[JIMMYBUSHIDO]

absolute genius

[Kvalo]

amazing!!! Great drumming.... not like "speed racers" that play nowadays!!!!!!!!!! Great!!!

[mgimino]

Come on man, Keith Moon in the same league as Gene and Joe? That's just an absurd comment.

[PositivelyBored]

Buddy and Joe are in the same league. One is more traditional swing, the other less conventional and experimental...both genius and alien!

[digitaldown]

joe could beat on a tin can with a pencil and it would sound like magic.

[derekdamnit]

i cant say i know much about drumming but what i saw in joe morellos kit compared to todays kits wow!

[sschev]

In my opinion, Joe Morello is the best drummer in the world..

[bkeay100]

sachev

I must agree only Keith Moon &Gene Krupa are in his league and I am afraid they are not Joe Morello

[ArizonaDelRio]

Keith Moon was a slob on drums.

If you want to improve your drumming go out and get Master Studies I and II. It will revolutionize your playing. It has rudiments, true, but in the context of practical exercises which will build your skill tremendously. It really works.

[samtotheg]

To me buddy rich is 2nd best , Joe morello is the all time greatest

[sweetfly66]

@samtotheg ... I am not into " best " or " better than " ...but I agree with you , i enjoy Joe`s playing more than Buddy`s .... in my opinion Joe had all the chops Buddy had but with more musical phrasing ability ... joe is the most musical drummer i have ever heard

[RevWrona]

That was awesome, thank you for posting it. I have never seen this particular Morello solo, do you have any information and details of this performance?

[proto35]

that, was epic. i love the true skills of the old drummers. independence, dynamics, sound and volume control, and pure skills and no technology to enhance it.

[Papoune64]

Une pure merveille !

[thewirecollection]

I prefer this to buddy

[Sutor]

Does anyone else find it really odd that at the end when they show the band, everyon'es wearing their normal suits.. yet Dave is wearing a white check shirt..? lol

[senseitre]

Perhaps he was about to duck off for that cheesy 'Bravo Brubeck!" photo shoot ;)

[toth1971]

this is REAL DRUMMING

[hyde2042]

@toth1971

Yes and everything else is just mythical representations.

[tolvispelvis]

0:59-1:06 That is some fast left hand for a right handed drummer.

[BudmanPackfan]

Thanks for posting Lunchbagcrew. Could you let us know video you extracted this from, I sure would like to get a copy for myself. :D

[paister88]

He can play drums xD

[tripelane]

I saw this entire session way back in the early 1970's, one Sunday morning, and have been looking for it ever since. This Morello solo was the highlight of the entire 1/2 hour show. I've seen alot of Morello solos, and this one still ranks as the best. It's riveting!

[BrimptonFopp]

Melodic approach...maybe because he played violin? One of the greats of our time.

[tariksba]

VIVA Joe Morello.Respect.

[MikeofPete]

This really shows how good of a drummer he is. All the other solos are great too but with the accompaniment this shows great technique of playing through the bars not just across them.

[miketacoma5]

Keys to becoming a good drummer:

Study the rudiments, develope rythm, study the rudiments, study the rudiments and keep your kit small to begin with. Oh yeah, and study the rudiments.

[mrmott44]

Small kit, all flavor

[johanisu]

i'm beginning to think he's the best drummer alive, though louie bellson takes some beating.

[MarkR1957]

All of these guys were/are Supreme Masters ~

[sztana]

Morello is a Genius '

[tommyzydeco]

wow... there's so much music in his drumming. it really is much more than just a beat with morello.

[rwoods2k]

thats just it, Joe Morello was s melodic player than the big band guys (krupa, rich, bellson) I have read morello say that those guys were about power, speed, doing superhuman things on the drumset. Joe wanted to have more of a melodic approach, he continued to say that he always admired Max Roach for his melodic approach to playing drums

[typeitasoneword]

I know that song, but I can't think of the name of it... Anyone?

[joao2210]

Take Five

[typeitasoneword]

Thanks!
