Sonny Payne is the greatest , fastest and best Showmanship DRUMMER Ever lived I seen him in-person before he died. His father the late Chris Colombus and I were friends in Atlantic City. My band the Frank Jones Allstars played for the Chris Columbus first and only Festival in A.C. I will always remmeber Sonny Payne

Impressive Solo. Great Post!

I noticed that starting around 5:15 Sonny starts playing the melody of Ol' Man River. Much like Buddy Rich used to do sometimes on West Side Story.
