This dude has been in the zone for decades.
And the same feel and same music for decades!
FACTS!!!
Elite
Dave weckl is the zone.
What a player! Imagine playing in a band and you got *Mr Weckl* in the house...... *absolute business end of town and no mistake!!*
This track is incredible! Dave is the premiere fusion drummer of our era.
That's RITE!
The man’s a legend, and the Master Plan was my initial intorduction to jazz. In my late teens Dave quickly became one of the top artists on my playlists - and perhaps an unlikely one given that the lists had previously consisted of underground thrash metal bands. I love how Dave’s music opened a whole new musical world to me. Much respect, always loved your playing, still do.
OMG. I've listened to this since I was a little kidd . I'm now 44.❤
YOU ARE AN AMAZING DRUMMER ! Funk...rock...soul...jazz...Fusion...latino...YOU CAN PLAY EVERYTHING ! What else ? ;)
Dave Weckl, my biggest influence ever!
Still a monster decades later.
This guy still has that flare 🔥...I loved this whole album when it came out...and its still one of my favorite songs. If you ever get a chance to see him perform live!❤ do it!! while you can he plays like a machine,his technique is incredible🤯...you will not be disappointed. ALso, my wife treated me to a drumcamp some many years back, Dave and Steve Smith were very nice approachable guys to talk to and share information with unlike, some of the others who were there. So, thanks for the music and inspiration over the years. D.W. 🎶🥁😎
From Philly Redz🥁💖
I've never seen a video of Dave himself performing the original full-length version of this song in 34 years❗️
Thank you upload,Dave Weckl🙏
Same
Same and 1 take 🥁 🔥
Dave Weckl with no doubts the best of the World drummer
Without a doubt Dave is the greatest drummer of all time, with his perfect and exciting beat. I'm even happier to see him playing his original songs. Splendid!!!
Quel batteur que ce Dave Weckl. Je l'ai découvert quand il jouait avec le Chick Corea Electrick Band et il n'a cessé de m'impressionner depuis 25 ans. Merci pour cet excellent jazz fusion. André du Québec, Canada
My drum hero! That is one beautiful drum set. That snare sound wow...
I remember when I heard this song for the first time in the 90s... It still blows my mind and, together with a generation of musicians, we are grateful to you, Dave! Thank you!!! My best regards from Brazil!!!
me too.. Exactly the same
He’s taken care of himself and is in great physical shape. He can play at the same level as when this was first recorded in the 80’s, he hasn’t lost a step.
Because he plays correctly not over exertion.
Falou tudo
He's the best drummer still alive...unbelievable.
Unmatched fluidity and dynamics by any drummer I've ever heard in any genre in my 24 years of playing! You can even remove the music and drumming will be a story for itself, yet it perfectly compliments the music and never feels or sounds contrived or "overplayed". That's why Dave is my number one drummer of all time.🍻
It’s as pleasurable to watch as well as listen.
Dave weckl’s playing is always out of this world, once again I’m being left speechless by this monster . IMO the Greatest drummer ever . BRAVO 👏
Dave replaying this song after 34 years! What a treat!!!! 🔥
My goodness! Dave, you sound just as good as when you originally played it all those years ago!! One of God's best musicians who just happens to play drums!!!!
He sounds even better, and he now plays it completely effortlessly in his 60s. :-)
Puede ser uno de los 5 bateristas mejores de todos los tiempos .!!! Sin duda
One of the best of all time.
It's always a pleasure to see you and hear you play the drums
He just flows, the playing is so accurate and I love the way he throws in odd time stuff. 🥁
I saw this at Toads place in 1993.totally changed my life. Thank you and Chick... and Pattituci as well as Frank Gambale. peace .
'
This tune is a classic, & {Mr.Weckl🎼👑🥁🎸🎹🎤💿📀🌍}, still can play at the highest levels period.
#KeepGroovin🎼🥁🥁🥁🥁!!!
Fantastic!! This song / album is part of my youth...........
Let me be the first ...to say thank you. For sharing your talent with the rest of us. It is never anything less than an unrivalled pleasure to watch, and listen, to you play.
A great honor to be schooled once again ;-)
Incrível. Pra mim um dos melhores bateristas do mundo. Sensibilidade, destreza e criatividade juntos em um único ser.
It feels like i'm listening to David Garibaldi from funk band "Tower of Power ".
DAVE WECKL THE GREAT !
I love the two dancing flams near the end.
His timing, phrasing, accents, his wrists, snare tone and anything else you can throw in are impeccable.
Simon Philips has been my favorite drummer for years.
Weckle now wears the crown..
Simon is no slouch! 🤣 Seriously though I hate "the best drummer" label, just too many talented drummers to exclude if you break them down to one.....Carl Palmer, Neil Peart, Buddy Rich,Max Roach, Billy Cobham....you see what I mean? There's elite drummers and good drummers. I'd say Weckl is in the elite category. 😉
my favorite drummer eveeeeer
Can't stop praising Dave Weckle is the ever greatest Drummer with machine precision.. born 💐💐
Classe, bom gosto, excelência, musicalidade e técnica.
I think Dave is one of few drummers who is still improving with age, which mostly doens't occur to many others.
Lenda viva, sempre é bom vê-lo tocando, Referência máxima!🥁🔥
Listening to this kind of playing will always make me want to try harder...
Fino preciso musical y potente. Un maestro 🥁👏👏👏👏lo escuchas a ciegas y lo reconoces
Great playing as always! I remember learning this in my high school fusio band (yes we had a fusion band/teacher) it was really how i got into playing jazz!! Gateway drums
Love it! and Thank you keeping that high hat going through the fills - I need it :-)
Finally. You inspired me to play drums. Amazing!!!!
I could never play any of Dave's stuff, but I loved to listen to Master Plan before going out to play a gig.
That takes me back! I wore out my Contemporary Drummer + One cassette. Wonderful playing as always.
Awesome! Now do Garden Wall and you're all set 😂. You've always been my inspiration, dude. Wish you all the best. God bless you!
Just a true drum master.
Wow!!!!! You’re fantastic!!!
🎶A rat tat tat tat tat tat on the drums🎶 You turn the beat upside down!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic Dave Weckl, always 👌!
Woooow! I have always loved this track since I first heard it 34 years ago! I tried to play it on my way, paying attention to the groove and all the accents played in unison with the music....but it doesn't work as well as Dave plays it 😄
Happy to be the 1st comment here - Dave, can't thank you enough - been following you since the mid 80's - IMO you're the best overall drummer in history (technique, feel, groove, versatility, professionalism, body of material) - I'm a pro fusion drummer now because of your influence/style - really appreciate all that you've brought to the music world - continued success & best wishes!
Hi Dave!
I've been to concerts where you played with bands like the Elektric Band or the Dave Weckl Acoustic Band, but I've never seen you perform Tower of Inspiration. Even though I've seen you play Tower '99 in some video clips, I've never seen "Tower of Inspiration" you performed. I really appreciate that you uploaded "Tower of Inspiration" that you played. This reminds me of the year 1990 when I bought your first solo CD. Thanks a lot!
The legend ❤🤘
fuck yeah Dave!!!! DAMN!! Love you brother!
Dave mindblowing fantastic wow.
Inspiration pure... top!
I remember shedding this song when it came out back in 89? 90? I was a kid in brooklyn, 14 or 15 and decided I had to learn this. I would have killed for a lesson like this back then! Dave became my drum hero. I was a "prodigy" and could play note for note just about anyone but there was something about Dave that blew my mind and still does to this day. I will say it...Dave Weckl is the most musical and dynamic drummer I have ever heard and I studied them all. He is just in a league of his own with his musicality and ability to convey. On top of that he is his influences have brought out the most wonderful sense of rhythm the world has ever heard. Dont misunderstand me, Vinnie and Virgil and Thomas, Chris and Mike and Buddy and Elvin and on and on are all genius's but Dave Weckl is still the most special out of anyone who has ever lived. Chops wise he is very elite, maybe not to Virgil or Chris level but that might just be double bass or music style related I have a hard time thinking Dave couldn't play anything he wants to if he set his mind to it but when I look at overall musicianship, for me Dave Weckl is the greatest drummer to have ever lived.
All aboard the 'Dave'ulator', that's calculator with a Dave in front. Incredible doesn't come close.
Dave and Virgil DONATI, according to my point of view, are the best of the best!
Awesome Dave!🐸🍺🔪🔥
I am from the Philippines, a senior at 83 but I enjoyed listening to Dave hitting his drum. Its a WOW.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
finally Dave Weckl plays this piece, visibly!!! it was time!!!!!😊
chart?..seriously Dave?😂😂😂😂This track has haunt us for decades!!!Thanx for sharing. Dave is like fine wine. Doesn't get old ..only mature.
Dave weckl the number 1 drummer in the world who doesn't joke with his career
dave was, is and always will be the best drummer
So fucking true!
100% agreed. I don't care what other people might say. No one, NO one, beats Dave.
His Darne Jan video is unreal.
😊
Very nice 🔥🔥🔥
You are still thé best Drummer in thé World !
That snare drum sound!
I feel like hearing the Master Plan CD again back in the 90s, great execution as always, can you do Garden Wall?
Awesome! 🔥
Mestre esee cara é uma lenda não tem igual
Ele é o único
I'm so glad to be alive during Dave Weckl's lifetime.
30年くらい前にあなたの教則ビデオ(VHS)をテープが擦りきれるほど繰り返し見たことを思い出します。ありがとう！そしてこれからも素晴らしい音楽を聴かせてください。
日本から。
同感我台灣人
Esse cara é muito bom mermão!!!!
세계적인. 뮤지션이자. 드럼 교수님이십니다. 늘 배우고 있습니다
Can't believe how well this guy nails every hit and accent. One of the best drummers ever
This was the original gospel chops for all you young bloods out there.
I heard him playing for the first time with the Chick Corea Elektric Band, and he entered my list of the 10 greatest in the world. I bought VHSs and learned a lot, especially how to play this fast double bass drum. Hugs from Brazil !!!!
i have the one you play on your video méthod "Back to basic", nothing change, alway so nice.
J'adore❤❤❤❤❤
Man, this brings back memories. I've seen you at least three times in St. Louis. A couple of those with Kennedy and Oliver.
They tore down Mississippi Nights a few years back, but I knew the best spot in the house to watch you!
Miss those times.... Nothing like it.
I will become a student of the Dave Weckl Online School. I want to play all of the is music. What an amazing opportunity. Thank's Dave.
There are some amazing drummers out there today, but drummers like Dave paved the way and I’ll take this musicality over speed metal drumming any day.
Dave is one of the absolute greats. You can't compare someone blasting hand/foot rolls at 280bpm with the stuff Weckle did with Chick Corea. Only a few guys can even approach that music.
Awesome alwais✰you are the best drummer!!🥁🎶⚡✨🌠🌟👌🏻👍🏼
Мой самый любимый Барабанщик 🥁, манера игры высший класс 👍
This dude has always been amazing. My goal is to be something remotely close to that..... well better get practising instead of commenting 😂
Incredible, dynamic, solid, flowing, creative, mastered….
Wonderful dancing around the 1, suggesting the time signature and accenting the melodies. Powerful stuff!
It’s obvious he’s not the first time behind the drums! Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yes, way more, I guess.
Cracking!
Dave Weckl é a prova que vinhos mais velhos ficam com sabor ainda melhor! Impressionante! Como esse cara influenciou e influencia uma legião de bateristas pelo mundo! Viva DaveWeckl - Que Deus ilumine e te dê muita saúde!
Class🎉🎉
The king of the drums Dave Weckl 👏👏👏👏🤗🤗🙏🙏
Man, still one of the greatest drummers out there👏🏾
Idol
without looking... what year did this song come out? its friggin' timeless!
August 1990
Chapeau. He is so relaxed. So clean. Thx for sharing. Greetings from germany Christoph 🎩 🎩 🎩 🎩 🎩
Of all Dave's tunes this is my best preferred
He's so on balance at all times. I fell off my chair 9 times just watching.
I can only say that Dave Weckle is more sophisticated and amazing, with the same technique and motivation as he got older. I've always liked this song as well. You can't talk about a drummer without knowing Dave's charm. He's my drum mentor in a way. In particular, the fusion of Latin and jazz is attractive.
