Completely lame, He's done the exact same solo his whole career. All he does is play fast on a shitload of drums and cymbals, partially disrobe, and make an ass of himself. There's nothing here that Buddy Rich didn't do decades ago...and better. Give me Elvin, Tony, or Bruford any day.

His bass drum work is stupid and uneccesary. But those hands. Makes peart,lang bozzio portney allof em except billy cobham and joe morello ian paice or buddy rich amateurs.
That's whate I thought mate. The hands were amazing, fantastic technique. I'm studying with Bob Armstrong right now, same grip, style, Moeller system, the lot. It's tough, but so rewarding!
fuck... palmer is the best. if you want to see a very expensive drum set, please, let to se some of progressive metal drummers such mike portnoy and terry bozzio....
Why did a gr8 man and drummer like Carl have to lower him slef to doing this, when he could have played or play any place on earth. Still it gave us mear mortals a chance to be impressed, and impressed I was . Good job CP.
The double bass pedal work he means...it was very poor. Palmer is a great drummer but whenever I've seen clips of his solo's, his feet just don't cut the mustard. He was't even taking his shirt off or putting a stick in his mouth here, so there's no excuse.
Weird he used double-bass even with double-kicks around. Guess he couldn't get the endorsement. Still, I luv UK TV shows. They are caught in this time warp of variety show TV from the 60s and 70s.
loss the damn double bass crap....he was always way too good for that cheap stuff. He isn't also very good at it! Uneven and poorly played.. His hands are amazing...so lose the double bass!
Good LORD is this sad. It IS much the same solo as I would see ages ago. Watch the youtube solo from california jam. All he needs is to ring the bell with his teeth.
You miss the point. The mere fact that Carl can STILL pull off the exact same 1974 solo in 2007 says all you need to know. Dude is in tiptop physique, with nothing left to prove.
o shut up vcoaster!!! i wanna c u do that solo... i think that solo is so good that it could last 40 years and stillw ould be amaizing! anyway,no drum solo is that same. u always choose wich drum to hit when ur on stage,im sure he practices before the show but there r alot of parts u make on the spot. i am a drummer my slef so i would know.

Kinda sad. Since i first saw him perform in 1973, and several times after, he has always performed almost the exact same drum solo in each show. Carl is one of the best drummers of all time, and i;m sure he could come up with something different! Here he is 30 years later, on some stupid show, doing his same old solo.
That was strange the original ELP tune was mixed into a modern mix or something.

I've seen the top bands of the 70's and I can honestly say that Carl Palmer is the most tallented drums in a live performance.

Having seen him live many times, his double bass work is good. He is trying to play offbeats and such with his feet- he CAN play doubles

He's so good because he practices at least 1-2 hours each day.

barriemore barlows double bass is amazing.
about the rest... I think rich´s double bass is over the most times actually barely worth mentioning.
contrary to all his other skills.

The best drummer since Buddy Rich died
If only he woud drop the gongs and flahing lights. Not needed with his talent. Rich and Krupa did;nt need them.

@tsman29 IMO I would have to say that Neil Peart is not Palmer. Although Carl is a great drummer.
