This is a "REAL" drummer

[GingerPhilG]

good god, that's some solo right there...

[TheRowdy40]

sandy was the best no comentor

[SSCHubbard]

Had the pleasure to have seen Sandy many times before his accident and the only better drummer is Gene Krupa. Would have loved to have seen and heard them together

@blah5533 I haven't deleted any comment, it's still there. And yes the dictionary was right, I just didn't read your citation that carefully at first. I guess I just asumed you would have posted a quote that was contradicting me since it sounded like that was your point. But since you say im both right and wrong at the same time I guess your point was simply to start an argument and nothing else. Still, have a nice day!

@azerkahn that really good, first you say that the dictionary is wrong then you say it's correct. which is it? ..take your time over this , we wouldn't want to rush you into making a mistake. and as I'm having a quiet night in on my own with some friends there really is no need for you to hurry up.. oh wait you've deleted your comment about the oxford english dictionary being wrong. the english speaking world should burn all their copies and buy copies of azerkahn english dictionary instead

[azerkahn]

@blah5533 And reading your quotation from the dictionary it clearly supports me and the poster of this video anyhow "not combined with other parts of equal importans", which is exactly what I said. One instrument being more important then the others, being the "center of attention". Now do you realize this is a solo?

[azerkahn]

@blah5533 Ha ha, is everyone on youtube a 12yo troll these days? Both you and that dictionary is wrong. With solo one usually means that one particular instrument is lifted in front of the others, being the focus of attention one could say. Like when Jimmy page plays his solo at the end of Stairway to heaven or when Jon Paul Jones goes nuts on the bass on Scumbag blues (or since you seem to be quite young, maybe Slash in Novemeber Rain would be a better reference.)

[blah5533]

@azerkahn ....ever since solo meant this ( taken from oxford english dictionary

Music . performing alone: a part for solo bassoon.

performed alone; not combined with other parts of equal importance; not concerted.

alone; without a companion or partner: a solo flight.

[azerkahn]

@blah5533 Since when can only one instrument play during a solo? Any rock song would be pretty boring if all other instruments stopped as soon as one of them started on a solo.

[blah5533]

drum solo? how des he get them drums to sound like guitars?

Sandy Nelson was my first drum idol in high school before i discovered jazz. This is not your traditional version of Wipeout but some great drumming. I think the Ventures had the best version of this song with Mel Taylor. I love the way alot of the early rock & roll drummers played the ride rhythm on a ride cymbal and not everything on the hi-hats like they do now.
