  • you can hear genesis tracks if you listen carefully enough.

  • Tony, Mike, and Phil should have made both Chester and Darrell full-time, legal members of the band GENESIS years ago.

  • My mentor

  • Check out Neil Pearts R-30 drum solo

    Hes not better than Neil

  • Music isn't a sport.

  • wow

  • I've always thought that Chester Thompson and Billy Cobham have very similar styles - the way they tune their drums - wide open resonant toms, tight snare - and very tight funky grooves.

    This is a GREAT clip that shows how great a drummer Chester is - he can play ANY style. One of my faves!!

  • I've experimented with seat height & there's no way I'd sit at this angle but it works for some. Chester is a great technician but also gets great depth & feel. Take heed, Dave 'drum machine' Weckl & his kind!

  • waw....!!! synthesis of the the drums... very good gestualy.

    with F.Zappa is also very good he can play very differents songs! gratest's drummer with M.Roach

  • I think Chester is as a great drummer in his own right but I prefer Phil Collins.

    Chester, 'the backbone of Genesis live'! :o)

  • uno de los grandes bateristas de Zappa

  • Man sits HIGH!!

  • Very good drummer, great!

  • this man is 1 of 3 god's thompson, collins and peart..... ledgends

  • Buddy Rich man is crazy! you should here him.

  • where is your gorilla?

  • What a Legend!! I love you Chester, You are a hero and a god to me!! Hell Yeahhhhhhhhhh

  • Respect!

    I loved that he didn't just smash up the cymbals, but actually cared how he hit it. Used the rim, middle and bell part. Great stuff, thanks for posting...

  • chester and peart play completely out of phase with each other , they would probably cancel each other out or sound like solid hum lol!

  • I think he may be better than Neil,this man

    can play anything!!!!

  • I had the chance to see Chester live many years a go at a drum clinic. Three drummers and one musician! Chester is a musician, not just a drummer. One of the finest I've ever seen.

  • Finally a drummer who's musical at solo and not just showing off like "look what i can,you can eat my shorts".Chester rules and this solo proves he's the man!

  • OMG!!! great!

  • WOW>>>what grooves...GENESIZED!

  • incredible no crap drummer he is solid and plays fantastic grooves he is the best player at the moment know one can touch him even the best drummers of today look up to chester so do I !!

  • By the way the Chester Thompson that played with Santana was a keyboardist . The one in this video never played with Santana.

  • hmmm, maybe people may have gotten Chester Thompson and Dennis Chambers mixed up.

  • @druman44 chester thompson the drummer did play w santana in 1984 santana/bob dylan tour! seen them at the kabuki in san francisco!

  • People always think that the two Chester's are the same guy. lol

  • Very good drummer, if you want this is my homepage drawing : tape lichtfus in google search.

    See you later.

  • Chester the best drummer!
