Vinnie Colaiuta Zidjian Day 1984 (Drum Cover)

[jharleygilmore]

Hey Dr-

I rarely respond to youtube "cover vids" but you nailed it -- the thing to remember about Vinnie is that he is a MUSICIAN first -- a drummer second. Vinnie's FEEL is a huge (and often over-looked) element in his playing that just swings the time effortlessly, as well as his PHRASING. A lot of Vinnie fans don't seen to get this this -- but you do.

Great job!

Vinnie is already one of legendary drummer! I couldn't play the drum like vinnie forever. But still I want to understand what he is thinking when he plays the "music." I know it is impossible, because his brain is the UNIVERSE :)

anyway, thank you for your too kind comment!!
