Man, we thought Bobby Rondinelli was out of this world years ago with Rainbow when he played with a swagger, but these chops are way more serious than anything he ever did back then! Nice to see one of the greats has remained one of the greats.
My first drum teacher studied with Bobby for many years and I had an opportunity to meet him and even play a few licks. Don't take Mr Rondinelli lightly - he very rarely "goes off" ...he's more about control and feel , than notes, dewspite he's an arsenal of chops and knowledge.
@PositivelyBored not only is he my good friends grandpa but his family and are close family friends with my family but hes not the only amazingly talented in his family his brother teddy and his sister dorothy are both extremely talented
I've seen this question before, so here's the answer... in this video at NAMM, Bobby was in the middle of a scheduled demo of Ludwig's modular kit system - the whole point of this drum solo was to show how the kit could be re-arranged in different configurations. Bobby was able to keep on drumming during the changes, which made the demo even more cool.
Awesome. He was 2nd in line to replace Peter Criss , But Gene and Paul went with Eric Carr Instead
