VIRGIL DONATI OBSESSIVE RHYTHMS whole video
Great Video I used growing up learning the drumkit.
Virgil uses simple rudiments and demonstrates how they can be used to make so many interesting rhythms. His improvisation with odd time is also above and beyond.
He truly is a master at this instrument and proficient at the keyboard.
Enjoy the video

    Virgil never ceases to astound me when I hear him; certainly one of the best I've ever heard...how does he think up such abstract otherworldly stuff

    Ohhh Virgil. God damn you're too good! I love this! But I gotta say (and I'm sorry) but these just might be the worst sounding drums I've ever heard. Honestly. They sound like the crappy drum kit your buddy down the street had in his basement that you played on because you didn't have your own kit! Lolol you know it does! But other than that, killer playing my friend! And thanks for the upload!

    Virgil Donati, in my humble opinion has taken drumming to new places, never before seen. I believe overall he is the most technical drummer to ever live. I know that is saying a lot. I know who the greats are. I know what everyone can do. The reason I say this is because Virgil has such an unbelieveably wide range of skills, that he can do what any one of them can do at their best. And then he can do things that they cant. On top of this he is an AMAZING keyboard player. He could have had a superb career as a pianist or keyboard player. He can sight read almost as well as Vinnie. Virgil is the best. Now do you have him as your favorite drummer? Maybe yes, maybe no, but you must acknowledge his special and unequalled talent.

    • @giovannigamberini1971
      @giovannigamberini1971 11 месяцев назад

      I disagree totally. The traditional left hand grip is actually more interesting in a modern, hyper-technical drummer. It's a connection with the jazz/swing-era of Buddy Rich and the other fathers of our instrument. It shows that "old school" is not old at all, that "traditional" is not "weak" at all (plus, it looks so classy, it's a matter of style and elegance 😉). Another example would be Thomas Lang, a drummer as "muscular" and hyper-technical as Donati is, and also employing traditional grip (and large sticks) when he appeared on the scene; too bad he's switched to using matched grip almost exclusively 🤷🏻‍♂️. P.S.: Donati (like Lang) shows how it's done with traditional grip and a straight back posture (the shoulders at the same height etc), while too many "fusion" drummers using traditional grip around the 1980s/1990s (Weckl, Colaiuta, Gadd, Smith...) had terrible posture.

    • @PeterDeLuca-rz3dv

    Anybody else notice the obvious Terry Bozzio influences with the Black Remo drum kit with the high tuning, the Bozzio type fills he plays during the introductory solo, the all black clothes w/tank top and boots, the two chinas up high in the front, the Remo Spokes, it just says Terry Bozzio, still pretty cool to see a little more of how he developed in his early days.

    I wish he was playing more like this. Today you literally cant listen to 2 minutes before you ask yourself.....this has zero feel, its all math and the rhythms are unnatural feeling. Who cares if no one can play that shit. He couldnt play like Vinnie even if he tried. Virgil is a great player but he let self indulgence and ego took over in his playing. How cool can I be, to stump every drummer in the room? Really? Who gives a shit. Drumming is not a spectator sport...
