Here's a classic, from the Grace Under Pressure album. We have been rehearsing that one with the band so it's time for me to re-learn this... This is a song with a real orgy of cymbal playing... ;) Enjoy!

  • I hope you and the family are doing well! Once again, good, good sounds, thank you! I wanted to ask you what do you think of Keith Moon and Ringo Starr as drummers? I love your work or is it play? Take the best of care of you and the family and a sincere thank you for entertaining us, after all, ft astrophysics peters out (lol) , you could always take the universe by storm with your muscianship!!!

  • @nutz4all Thanks! I both like Moon and Starr as drummers. Moon was eccentric, to say the least, but his drumming was also musical and quite innovative at times. Ringo has been a subject of debate for years among drummers. I have total respect for him. You do not need to be a technical wizard to be a musical drummer. Where would Ringo have applied triple paradiddles at 200bpm in Beatles music anyway? ;) He did his job and did it well.

  • Excellent work, as usual, P! For some reason Youtube did not notify me about this upload so I only stumbled on this upload from last month today. This is one of my favorite Rush tunes - complex just how I like it :)

  • @aglav Weird. YT is full of bugs. ;) In case the same thing happens, I just uploaded "Entre Nous". ;)

  • I don't think I could compliment you enough on this. It was nearly perfect. You have a great feel for Peart's style.

  • @ThePsychicSasquatch Thank you!

see all

  • I take it you got an "A" in band class?

  • hey astro, all i can say is ' EXCELLENT ' keep it up..... ur the best rush cover drummer there is ..... no doubt.

  • MY favorite cover of yours. Awesome.

  • Of all the cover drummers i have seen and heard,this guy blows everyone out of the water! Pure perfection with sound,mimic and timing. If geddy asked him to play any song in concert with them he'd be ready!

  • Very impressive man, like all of your vids you rock it well.

  • Great Gob! Wow u can really drum! I like that little fade out in the end, very cool! :)
