Two songs I love to play in the ODD time category. Vinnie really does a great job here, I hope one day I can create work like this.

Outstanding drum work. I often cringe in advance when I see the word "cover" on YouTube because it is most poorly played and recorded. But I keep sampling just in case I hear something great like this. You make me want to get a set of drums and start learning. I play a number of other instruments, but have always been fascinated by great drumming.

@Chaguarama75 It's just 5/4. Sting's done several tunes in 5/4 and 7/4. Not that weird, really...but in this pop music/crap climate we've got now, I guess it stands out like a sore thumb. Sting's always played with beat displacement...check out the intro on "Murder by Numbers". Copeland is totally insinuating 3/4 when it turns out to be 12/8. Super clever tune. He does the same kind of thing on "Ghost Story". Implies one time signature and one downbeat in the intro and reveals the tune later.

Vinnie C. sounds great.. I cannot hear you though. why dont you turn the record down?
Guitarwizard 1 year ago
@Guitarwizard ..OUCH! I assure you the mix has Vinnie's drums all but removed, and my stuff in the mix. If anything I overplay, h/h, kick drums/ tambourine.
You've got some interesting guitar work on your site!

@froggpond1 Vinnie is like Neil Peart, Gadd, Weckl, Chambers... You might as well just totally play something different and go for your own thing because haters will pick it apart no matter what. Good job though

@Gretschdrums75 I do impart my own style to things. Many times I take a song with ghost strokes and apply them to the h/h. and allof a sudden things like this become great practive execises. I am having fun, and 99% of the posts here are having fun too., for the others..............
