Dancing Men Denis chambers

[TMNoob3]

I don't even play drums and my brain just exploded.

[HalfDomeGuyB]

After listening to this one, the Buddy, Simon, and Buddy/Simon versions are too sleepy slow for me, this song just FLIES LIKE A JET, not like a prop job. Wow.

[Easleytee]

In my estimation, DC is not a bona fide Jazz player. His roots are steeped in Funk + Fusion.

Notice how he fails to properly set-up the band throughout the composition.

Alternately, his BeBop + Swing are marginal at best. Nevertheless, a powerhouse, force of nature and a joy to behold.

[jaeroplane]

Great chart, maybe a bit too fast on this recording... but the snot was played right out of it!

[mellilore]

Prefer Buddy playing, still Dennis is awesome!!!

[jason86295]

this is a tune im gonna cover

[drummingchef79]

dennis is the fucking man

[KappaEffect]

this is really fucking amazing omg

[juddgreg333]

dennis chambers is great but he steps all over this tune just seems like he came in did the song without any preperation

[TMNoob3]

This video = sex

[jjjmanyo]

Dennis is amazing, did a clinic with him and got to play with him for a bit w00t.

[colingaj1]

@MrPelicanPants I agree

[MrPelicanPants]

Personally I think Simon Phillips' performance is far superior.

[antibulletdodger101]

@MrPelicanPants Really? His was the worst by far in my opinion. I know alot of people felt that he didnt fit in with this kind of music and I agree. Simon is a basher

[MrPelicanPants]

@antibulletdodger101 Oh I agree Simon doesn't really belong in the music, but that was half the reason why Neil chose the drummers he did for the Burning For Buddy project. Simon added a different element to the song that I honestly prefer. It clearly doesn't swing, but for that song I think it works better. I'm probably biased though too since his was the first version I'd ever heard. ;) I fully admit that lol!

[mikeybbdrummin]

@antibulletdodger101 .......Simon a basher?.....when needed, sure.....Listen to PSP or Vantage Point.......it's dynamics and finesse.......I was at this show and it was for drummers....Dennis played it 1/2 hartedly IMO.....he got the basics and played whatever he could fit in.......not my cup of tea................gave this another listen after listening to Buddy and Simon...............as great as Dennis, which he is....I would never search out his playing.

[daonpa]

@MrPelicanPants LOL

[mikeybbdrummin]

@MrPelicanPants .....I have to agree.........listened to it 2 hours ago on the way home.

[MrZol]

@bartweiss1 yea @ first i thought it sounded good, but Dennis overplayed it and just didnt get the right groove. Buddy Rich is irreplaceable!

[Natalya1sFit]

i love how modest dennis is

[Acrylicdrums]

Dennis tears this tune up! As great as Buddy was, Dennis employs the kick and toms to a far greater degree. Stunning speed and great solo!

[ShaunSlickStyxx]

Stop with the comparisons already! Every pro drummer has a similar but different approach to covering a tune. Just leave it at that! And just because buddy rich was arguably the greates drummer of all time doesn't make him the greatest of all time

[Hackfrostcs]

UN exelente Hijo de Puta el Gordo!! Grande!! Up chambers!

[newfunkdrummer]

Ta' bien carajo bien tocado... excelente.

[MackingCrew]

This whole concert was about drumming which is why the drummers are out at the front. You don;t go to a drum clinic to watch drummers 'play for the song.'

[RalfGustkeAddict]

In my opinion he goes over the top in this case..

[VonTrousers]

Yep. Part of being a good drummer is knowing when to pull back. He's clobbering the song

[gregmorrow]

@VonTrousers It was HIS, DENIS' day!

[BenskyBen]

We played this for the RAN the other day ;D

Awesome tune <3

[tmak1313]

The drumming is so much fun to watch and even better to listen to.

[Marsman315]

Such an awesome song

[kiddrum86]

one the best songs i have ever heard in my life

[babsaloops]

i love dennis chambers and the kind of stuff he is playing here is undoubtebly some of the most technically challenging stuff known ..however it's simply too much for the song..buddy didnt need to play that he just grooved so dennis could learn from that..just play the groove until the solo section..

[scheidtmaster]

i don't know dude, dennis took it and ran with it and made it his own right here. it's fucking great.

[antibulletdodger101]

whos denis chambers? his wife?

[TF2scoutMASTER]

huh....the drummer?!?!?!

[sanfordandsonsalvage]

dennis chamber!

[jsteuernol]

Such a great chart. I played lead trumpet on it in my first year of university.
