I've seen a bunch of those videos with that monstrosity of a set and always thought "Huh? I don't get it." This video is the drummer I thought I would see... You don't have to burn that huge set, but break it up and sell it. Terry should always be on this size set.
You know, all over youtube, people gripe about drummers dropping their pinkies. Now that I see bozzio do it, I'm gonna stop worrying about it all together. If it's ok for him, then it's ok for us all.
@aakkoin I completely agree. I don't think that Mike is an "#*@hole", but I certainly think that he is a bit overrated. I prefer Mike Mangini over Mike Portnoy. It's not that Mike Portnoy isn't a great drummer, I just grew tired of his playing. To me, it all began to sound the same. In short, I think his departure from Dream Theater will benefit them in the long term, and allow Mike Portnoy to pursue his myriad of side projects.
@jblgti146 portnoy es mas de lo mismo, si, asi de literal; MÁS de lo mismo, una sobrecarga. nada original.
en cambio bozzio sale del molde... me gustaria verlo en una propuesta mas avantgarde [contemporánea]. solo queda el recuerdo de lo que alguna vez hizo junto a zappita.
Triple stroke? Where? This is amazing, but TB seems to suffer from Bill Bruford syndrome: weird for the sake of weird, ie., Terry's trash cymbal sounds. I get it, but why not play open cymbals as well? That's just cutting off an entire section of your drumset. The polyrhythms are insane, but sometimes it's good to settle into a groove; I get the feeling that he's just thought this out way too complicated. Where's the soul? Terry's maybe the best there is, I'd like to hear more from the gut.
@blabbaboo well, you have to take into account that this was roughly 20 years ago, and only represents a blip of him. Search around YouTube and you'll find enormous varieties of material from him, and if you look, I guarantee you'll find the soul you seek. But the short answer to any of those questions at any given time is because that's what he wanted at that time. This applies to all art. An artist is not here to serve us, they'll do what they want and we can like or dislike it either way.
@deadly2426 i respect neil for "writing" those songs but just on a solo basis he can't and won't ever touch terry bozzio. neil is like a typewriter which is cool when you are playing those types of songs like limelight and freewill (and i have all of rush's stuff) but he will never be able to solo like terry
@associate434 Yeah. I dig both but Neil rarely does much polyrhythmic stuff in the way that TB does. He changes meters a lot, and sometimes throws in some contrapuntal things that excite, but he doesn't call very much upon some of the wildly extended vocabulary that TB does. Maybe it's TB's Zappa legacy, along with Colaiuta, et al. Neil is a great, advanced rock player with a jazz showman's sense and a good deal of precision but he doesn't really cross into this territory and stay for long.
yall are fucking idiots if you think neil peart is better .. yall obviously have never listened to brecker brothers-heavy metal bebop. i'm tired of people ragging great drummers in the sense of so called knowledge. BUY SOME FUCKING RECORDS INSTEAD OF LISTENING TO TOM SAWYER ON THE RADIO.. YOU CAN'T LISTEN TO BOZZIO ON THE RADIO CAUSE ITS TOO MUCH FOR THE AVERAGE LISTEN TO COMPREHEND ON WHAT EVER HE'S ON
@associate434 Neil Peart and Bozzio are both awsome. But truley Neil has better solos in my opinion. And Tom Sawyer is a great song on drums, guitar, and bass. But listen to la villa strangioto, Great song on drums. Subdivisons, another great one on drums. Have u listend to spirit of radio? Limelight? Dude you must not listen to rush if u think neil aint awesome. Its just an opinion and i respect yours. But dont be callin people idiots if someone thinks another is better.
Although this vid is old! I still have his vid on tape when he used this kit! IMHO he was better and said more with this kit than his current DW over the top USS Bozzio contraption! And the Remo's sound better than the DW's
I saw Missing Persons in the early 1980's and was blown away by Terry's incredible playing ! ( and his girl Dales' vocals " " ) but after seeing what Terry has done in the past, before 2011, he is just a D*MN EXCELLENT drummer !!!
to settle the drum war here, all of the drummers you mentioned are incredible, this isn't some competition, each of these drummers have something unique to offer to the drumming community and we need to be happy that there is so much talent for us to enjoy and learn from, everyone from buddy rich to peart, chad smith to bozzio to carter beauford and so on, all love drumming, and only competed with themselves, that's real drumming! enjoy the rhythms and stop the hate! we're all drummers!
Terry Bozzio, Lenny White, Billy Cobham, Tony Williams, and on and on... they are (were) all great and we must appreciate that they shared their gifts and talents with us admirers... and that we were fortunate enough to have lived during their lifetimes!
@thellamashow it will never be found out who is the worlds best drummer. those that compete with others will never get there, and those that are close to the top compete with themself.
Hi, if all the shit talking about who's better could stop for a second...does anyone know if Bozzio ever put out a video describing his elementary practice techniques? By the time he began with Zappa he already had incredible independence I am trying to learn if he has a "foundations" video out somewhere. Any help is appreciated.
Yep, I've come to the conclusion that anybody who talks shit about Bozzio doesn't have a clue. The guy played with Frank Zappa - that's all that needs to be said.
@Str8Faced Oh, I won't argue with that point. Vinnie is the man and he is definitely in my top 10 list. He has his own style just like Bozzio has his. I'm sure they both respect each other.
if they put his brain in an octopus the octopus could have a chance.........to an amatuer it sounds like noise to a trained ear you can hear all the independence and different time signatures at once......the motor skills it takes to articulate this musically is just absurd
@chrismcm66 That's almost an exact "ditto" on this end. I saw him here in Kansas City three days ago and actually asked him how long it took to learn that kind of independence. He told me it took years, and it was kind of a way he reinvented drumming so he had his nitch. He said don't practice what you're good at, but come up with some totally new challenging ideas no one ever thought of....
@aakkoin RIGHT HERE!!! terry bozzio is a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of neil peart's shoe!! when terry bozzio gets asked to do the buddy rich tributes,,you let me know,, till then,,NEIL PEART HAS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE ABSOLUTE,UNDISPUTED GOD OF DRUMS,,PEROID!!! anybody who tries to dispute this is just ignorant!!!!!
Omg your last sentence is a perfect repugnancy but to come to the point, bozzio can play all the stuff neil does, and neil couldn`t probably play a tenth of the stuff bozzio does without practicing years, because terry is the coordination master who simply played about every ostinato you have ever heard. Buddy does the same stuff over and over, he was an icon in his time but drumming evolved, so if you imagnined buddy in our time he wouldnt become that famous, im sure!
@MrMasterindahouse He gave a clinic in Kansas City in October. He actually told me the best thing to do if you really want do something different is to come up with something that's never been done before. How many of us do that when we practice? He said he would spend hours learning stuff that no one ever thought of.
@MrMasterindahouse dude, im gonna lose my mind with all of these neil peart guys!! neil peart is a good drummer, not great, not unbelievable, good. then there are guys who are great, then there are guys who are unbelievable(antonio sanchez, horacio hernandes, vinnie, dave, buddy, chris coleman, etc. etc.) these neil peart guys only have 1 ear or something, idk
@Mubofan1693 Please don't be so stupid, music is not a competition.
But if you would take your fanboy-glasses off, you would see that Bozzio really is over-the-top.. amazing technique and independence, rock solid time, real feeling, original sound and rhythms all around... I love Peart and Rush also, but c'mon man, can't you see how insane Bozzio is?
@Mubofan1693 Zappa is and will always be the greatest musical genious that has ever walked this earth. Peart is a fantastic drummer, but Bozzio is not human. his limb independence is unrivaled!
Did most of you know this was done about 17 years ago? He was so far ahead of everyone else. He paved the way for Minnemann, Lang, Kenny ADJ as well as many others. He is the true master of independence, and melodic drumming.
Bruford an Bozzio both come from the same era (Progressive Rock bands of the 70's) . None was ahead of the other. As a matter of fact Bozzio was the replacement for Bruford in the band UK back in 1979. I guess Bozzio was the only one who could play what Bruford was doing at the moment.
But Bozzio has come so far ahead over the years with his symphonic approach to drumming. That is so mind blowing.
@patrickforpresident I couldn't have said it better myself. I might even go so far as to say that Bozzio is the most important and influential drummer of the past 25+ years. He redefined what was possible on the drumset and shaped the world of percussion to come.
@patrickforpresident .... almost everything people are doing today comes from Terry Bozzio .... the ostinato`s especially ... the call and answer between hands and feet ... the linear patterns ... odd groupings of 16th notes ....
other things he " invented " ..... stacking cymbals .. i had never seen anyone put cymbals on top of eachother before Terry ..... using the roto tom spokes as musical instruments themselves ... Terry Bozzio is arguably one of the biggest innovators and influences
@STIXAHOY ... .well , he is famous for ostinato themes ... what i meant was literally accompanying yourself by playing an ostinato say with the left hand and right foot and soloing with the other two limbs ...Max did not do that ... he is famous for that tom theme that he came up with , and yeah it is an ostinato but so is any repettitive phrase ... in this context it means playing and soloing over an ostinato simultaneously ...terry invented it
@patrickforpresident ya wanna talk about music ? search vai bozzio zappa more trouble every day.....steve vai just ate a guitar.....travis barker and jimmy page my ass
I've seen a bunch of those videos with that monstrosity of a set and always thought "Huh? I don't get it." This video is the drummer I thought I would see... You don't have to burn that huge set, but break it up and sell it. Terry should always be on this size set.
