@marty3699 I understand your opinion, but you must understand that Bruford has been an innovator. Up to 50 years, there was only an experimental jazz as a musical genre, in 60 years has begun to form a new definition of progressive music with the genre (of which he was part Bruford). Bruford, then, like many other Italian and international drummers of that era, had "carte blanche" in composing, experimenting on percussion. So for the time was an innovative genius ... Today there is all Sold..

@marty3699 What makes this vid impressive is the tasteful combining of Gamelan, African and Western style musical drumming done here.

Terry Bozzio and Neil Peart don't like this video.

I have always admired and respected this mans work. In my view he is one of the top drummers we will ever see.

Ok, don't jump all over me here. I understand what made Bill an innovator. His experements with kit design, sound structure, mixing electric and acoustic and more. What I don't get is how this particular vid is impressive. Just a bunch of 16th and 32nd notes and a few trills over the surface of the drum heads. Any half way proficient drummer could do this. Sorry just my opinion
