Van Halen - Tora! Tora! Loss of Control (Drum Cover)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Coming off their third album Women and Children First, this song (I guess it's actually 2 songs) sounds to me like they were just having fun in the studio. I programmed a crash cymbal on the edge of my ride cymbal, which helped a lot in playing this warp speed track, lol! Rock on, groovy peeps! 🤘🤘

Alex Van Halen finally deserves credit, like Eddie, with this amazing drum cover. VH brothers were incredible.
Yeah, Alex is so underrated IMO. Those bros had a ton of talent.🙏💛🙏
"Women & children first" is probably my absolute favorite VH album. Loss of Control is such a SICK track ! 😅
Thanks for checking it out! Women & Children First is awesome... definitely a fun album! There's a lot more that I'd like to cover from it! 🙏💛🤘🤘
Wow, that was freaking awesome Mike!!! Dude, you're a beast and that's a hard song......loved it brother 🙏💯😊❤️
Thank you so much Marcus! I'm always grateful for your support, my bro. You rock!🙏💛🙏
A great couple tracks from Women and Children First album! Double bass skills: check. Jazzy right hand work: check. Right on point fills and drumming : check. Such a killer drumming performance and cool cover Mike!
Wow, thank you so much for your awesome comments Rich! About "Tora! Tora!" -- you can tell that VH opened for Black Sabbath on their first tour IMO!! 🙏💛🤘
0:52 Time to go full throttle! This song is awesome and a unique rhythm for you to perform on drums. Amazing drum cover!
Haha -- yep! This one switches gears pretty fast! Thanks so much for your kind words, and have a great weekend!🙏🤘💛
Hey Brother..
Your drumming is very impressive and neat every beat, it's a shame I don't play as smooth and stable as you..Great work for you..👍😊🤘🙏
Thank you so much Bang! I appreciate you, and your channel rocks!🙏💛🙏
Waouw, super belle batterie mon ami et ça groove !!!!
This was the song that made me realize Alex Van Halen was the “Truth” This shit is hard, unbelievably hard.
Thanks for watching Shawn! I agree, Alex is a killer drummer! 🙏🤘🤘
Wow Mike... you certainly know how to impress us all when you sit down at those drums... that was fantastic playing... excellent technique... Rythmn and superb solid drumming... Loved it..... btw.. I hope you have a fab weekend 💖💋

Very doomy sound coming from Van Halen, that's amazing!! Also is hard to believe your precision on the double bass and on every note around the kit!! You're an absolute beast Mike Conway!! #Like41 👍🏼
Thank you Carlos! I think Van Halen was inspired by Black Sabbath on this song, who they opened for on their first tour. I hope you have a great weekend my man!🙏💛🤘
Simply AMAZING, Mike! You DESTROY the drum in these cover, man! AWESOME! FANTASTIC! Very much congrats from a Van Halen fan of São Paulo, Brazil! And waiting for VH' s "Intruder + Pretty Woman" drum cover!
Thank you so much Augusto! Wow, your comments make me feel terrific -- I hope all is well in São Paulo my friend! 🙏💛🤘

Thank you so much for your super comments! I sure appreciate your awesome support Imah!!🙏💛🙏🤘🤘
hello we are from the wbj channel and we are subscribing to help your channel, keep up the good work ✌✌
Thank you so much for the awesome support! Have a great weekend!🙏💛🙏
Brilliant work my friend! Rock on and cheers 😀\m/\m/
I always found that Alex has a very percussionist-sounding approach to drums., with a very melodic, "wooden" sound. His snare-drum has often a tom sound.
Yeah, I agree. Eddie came up with the term "brown sound" referring to Al's drum sound... he said it sounded like he was beating on a log. 👍👍🤘🤘
Imagine the crazy jam sessions Alex and Eddie had over the years and then teach Wolfgang.......wow
Apparently there are a bunch of tapes at the 5150 Studio of Eddie just working on different guitar parts and ideas for songs, etc. over the years. If it's true, that could be a really cool boxed set release "from the vault".
Wow! Just wow! 😮 What a killer performance, my friend! I knew you were an incredible drummer before, but this is just outstanding! Fantastic double bass work and brilliant job on all of these different and complicated rhythm patterns. World class drumming, I‘m literally blown away! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much brother!! You know this means a lot to me -- I have such mad respect for your drumming talents & outstanding channel. Your awesome comments totally fire me up -- thank you!!🙏💛🤘
Wow, nicely done!
So _that's_ what he plays during the air traffic bits!
Went nuts trying to play this my first year. 'Intruder' ( _Diver_ )was a lot easier.
Great job! Nice setup btw.
Thanks for checking it out and commenting! Alex's drums were sometimes hard to hear, like they were too low in the mix.🙏🙏🤘🤘
Mike, that was awesome!! Great job. You channeled Alex to a tee. Thanks for that! By the way, love the kit!!
Thanks so much for your awesome comments! I'm stoked that you liked it!🙏💛🤘🤘
Super cool performance My dear friend Mike!! You are truly an awesome Drummer!! Love and respect Kyle!! 😊🥁🇵🇭
Thank you so much Kyle! I appreciate your support buddy!🙏👍
"Mighty" Mike delivers to us once again! Wow, buddy, the last two covers had you pulling out all the stops. Incredible job. Two very difficult covers back to back. I loved the "reverse" fill you did at ~2:34, too. Keep 'em coming and thanks for what you do for all of us.
Ahhh, awesome comments Russell! Man, thank you so much for your super feedback -- very cool of you. I hope you have a great rockin weekend my man!🙏💛🙏
Excellent job dude 🙌!! Killer drumming !! BIG Like 👍!!
Thanks so much Kike! I really appreciate your great comments brother!🙏💛🤘
You have this face of expectation while drumming at times...it's very cool!! Once again, you are awesome! Wow!!
Thank you so much Michael! Your support is awesome, my man!🙏💛🙏 PS I hope you're doing well & healing up! 😃
Dude, I have to know each piece of that kit besides the Roland that I myself have.
It’s awesome
You play ok I guess.
😂
You’re awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much AJM! I'm glad you dig it -- and your comments are awesome!🙏💛😃
Mike the man!! You nailed brother .... another VH lovely covered man ... loved your attitude ... you lived through it ....
Thank you Stamatis!! Hope you're having a great weekend my friend!🙏💛🤘

Thank you Lutz! I sure appreciate your great feedback and support my friend!🙏💛🤘
Wow,,,,Alrighty Then,,,keeps popping up in my algorithms,,,gave it vew,,personally speaking,,,,I have a classic Simons e kit ,,and 2 acoustic kits ,,the e kit is nothing but practice time,,for me anyway,,,believe it or not,,they are a good way to build muscle memory,,,any who,,,nothing is better than acoustic shells,,and hh cymbals...gotta feel it man.
Thanks for checking it out Tim! It's all good -- I really appreciate the support!🙏💛🙏
Awesome, Mike! 😃 Bravo!
Speed, precision & power! 💪
I feel honoured to collaborate with such a great drummer as you are!
Greetings!
Thank you Sergio! The honor is all mine, my friend. You are an exceptional bassist, and it's a privilege to play with you. Keep rockin my good man!🙏💛🤘🤘
Yes!! The World's greatest RUclips Van Halen Drummer is back with another one! Another great cover, Mike. You rocked this classic, as always. And another one where you went super deep into the Van Halen catalogue. All this stuff is just magic. And it's like you were made for it. Built to do it. You're in the groove... the whole time, Brother! More Alex Van Halen magic. Your work on the double kick is nutz - and that ride... man that ride action. The Toms. Wow. You're just a SIKK drummer, Brother!! OK thanks for making my Friday night!! Rock on, and can't wait for the next one already!
Thank you so much Jimmy! Oh man, your comments are always such a treat to read. I really appreciate it... I'm so glad you like it and I'm super grateful for your support. Just tremendous, brother!! Have a great weekend!🙏💛🙏🤘
So. Much. YES! You're double bass patterns are FLAWLESS. Ugh. I am currently working my A$$ off trying to nail that kind of speed! Killing it, Mike! Big LIKE! So glad to see your videos getting their due respect!
Thank you so much Michael! That really means a lot coming from such a great drummer... I'm so grateful for your tremendous support and super comments my man!🙏🙏💛💛

Man, how did I miss this one!? Another great one from a great album. Double bass sounded great and the fills were exact! Does not seem like an easy song to pull off (well, none of the AVH stuff seems easy) --Wonderful performance⚡✊💥
Thanks a ton Anthony! I always appreciate you & your great support. Have a rockin weekend!🤘🙏💛
Excellent cover and a truly powerful performance, Mike... Your double bass is awesome and your timing is super precise, my friend !!! 😎🙋🏻♂🥁
Thank you so much Paco! I'm glad you like it -- and I appreciate your awesome comments my friend!🙏💛🤘
The 'effort' it no doubt took to play along with this amazing VH song, is nothing short of Herculean. We all know....there would have been no 'Click' in 1980...on this thing. Just 'wild' time, feel and meter, delivered by none other than Alex Van Halen. Mike.... Jaw dropping effort here sir. Just...... Wow...
Man, thank you for such fantastic comments! You sure make me feel awesome & I really appreciate it!!! Rock on brother!🙏🤘💛
Close my eyes and i think... 'is it Alex Van Halen?' And, man... is Mike Conway, making a perfect Van Halen cover... the sound is sooooooo great, and your drumming, bro... your drumming is something out of the charts... you pulled covers that only pro drummers dare to do... unique skillset, bro...
Thank you so much for your great support and super cool comments Joaq! I sure am glad you like this mi hermano, and I appreciate you more than you know. Have a great weekend, and big hugs my bro!🙏💛🙏
Incredible drumming Mike! I love how different the two main parts of the song are but work so well together. Excellent double kick with the ride and that snare work... Wow. That was a drum clinic all around!🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Darren! I'm so glad you like it. This means a lot coming from a mega talent like you & I so, so appreciate it!🙏💛🤘

Haha! Awesome comments Rick! I sure appreciate your great support, brother!🙏💛🙏
Love your videos! As a fellow drummer in a Van Halen cover band you do a fantastic job and it’s clear you are a fan and play it from the heart!
Thanks a ton Michael! Always great to hear that from another drummer & VH fan... I really appreciate it & I'm glad you like it! 🙏💛🙏
I spent so much time listening and learning the guitar parts of Van Halen that I never really appreciated how great Alex is at drums. This is a great track that shows off those skills. We'll done.
Thank you Mike! Alex was always lurking in the background... obviously Eddie was the show. But Al had some serious chops! I sure appreciate your nice comments my man!🙏🙏💛💛
Excellent amazing job my great friend 👍🥁👍✊✊✊👍👍👍👍!!!!!

Thank you for watching & commenting! 🙏🙏💛💛🤘🤘
Brilliant man 👌😎👍 wow kick ass
Thank you so much Miyagi! I appreciate you.🙏💛🤘
In fact "Tora tora" is just the noise in the first seconds, I suppose ? It sounds like an engine, then a "sbam", like a biker who hits a metal wall, or who crosses the sound barrier... strange noise really...
Well I think "Tora! Tora!" is the beginning weird noise and then the short instrumental piece that follows it, which sounds sort of like a Black Sabbath tune. Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙏💛🙏
@@MikeConwayDrums You're right, that short slow intro has a somewhat spanish melody (in minor mood), hence, certainly the "Tora Tora" title.
Love that song! Great job again on those drums!
Thanks a ton Chris! 🙏💛🙏
Alex Is underrated,good video Bro🤎
Thanks so much! I'm glad you dig it!🙏💛🤘
That’s awesome bro! I loved it.. 🔥🥁

Excellent Mike! Keep them coming!
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it!🙏💛🤘
I'm just a beginning guitarist and probably won't dabble with drums, but that looked like ton of fun! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thanks Eric! You should try this song on guitar -- it sounds like just as much fun to me!🙏💛🙏
@@MikeConwayDrums I appreciate your support, Mike, but I'm coming up on only two years of learning. Hopefully, one day, I'll get there on my purple replica strat!
