Wow, mega gut gespielt. Eines meiner Lieblingslieder und mein nächster Meilenstein. Bin vor 3 Wochen nur wegen Jounrey mit dem Schlagzeug angefangen. Bin aber noch auf den richtigen Noten für den Song. Klasse dir beim Spielen zuzuschauen.
Looks like my Dad is a bit older than you, he's almost 70 now. He played drums in a cover band, and they practiced in our basement. Your cover of Sweetest Taboo was perfect! Great content, I love your channel!!
Ya did Steve Smith proud. Not one of my favorite songs, especially after running FoH for a wedding band for 2 years, but it IS a great drum part. I love the open hand thing w/ the syncopated toms. Steve was highly underrated. HIs work w/ Jean Luc Ponty was epic. Love your vids man, great playing and very pro level sound and vid production.
Thank you!!! I've seen lots of bands play this song and sadly, I haven't seen any drummers play the correct Steve Smith drum part. I became aware of Steve Smith way back in the 1970's on the Enigmatic Ocean album. Amazing drumming!! I have a couple drum covers of songs from the Enigmatic Ocean album--Mirage and Trans Love Express. Check them out if you'd like!
You know, somewhere I have a piece of paper that has the exact beats to this written by Steve Smith and given to me at a clinic/private lesson from 1982 at The Creative Drum Shop in Scottsdale, Az.
Ya know... it's not just that I need a left hand on the hi hat. It's not just that I am syncopating all over the place on the ride and toms with the right hand while also keeping that alternating back beat... it's that it keeps freaking changing itself up!! I love it!! Said every drummer who ever learned it.
Thank you! Yes, I think someone has to be part octopus to play this song properly!! All credit goes to genius drummer, Steve Smith, for creating this amazing drum part.
Great vid and song choice! Well placed bell as well! Looks like you're having a lot of fun with it and that's the name of the game!! Well done brother!!
+Joe Meosky Believe it or not, the resonant heads are the original ones that came with the (used) drum set. They're standard Remo clear ambassadors at least 15 years old. Even the batter heads are pretty old--around 6 or 7 years. Thanks for watching!!!!
I CANT BELIEVE YOUR DRUM HEADS ARE THAT OLD. IM SITTING AT WORK ( RUNNING A CAR DEALERSHIP ) AND IV'E WATCHED LIKE 5 OF YOUR VIDEOS. ENOUGH WITH THE COMPLIMENTS. IM JOKING, YOU ARE A GREAT PLAYER, PLAYING FOR THE SONG , A BASS PLYERS DREAM, I GUESS. I TOO PLAY AND I AM IN AGREEMENT WITH THE REST OF THE PEOPLE WATCHING . YOU LAY IT DOWN PERFECT. I HAVE TO BACK TO WORK NOW, BUT I WILL GO HOME TONIGHT AND PLAY, MAYBE JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN USSUAL. I LIKE YOU AM ALSO A FAN OF THE POCKET AND IT TOOK ME YEARS TO GET IT. ITS NICE, WHEN OU HAVE IT . I WONDER IF YOU PLAY ON LONG ISLAND ?
Mijn lieve Walther van mij! Ik ben zo stapelverliefd op jou! Jij bent mijn alles! Ik houd zo ontzettend ontzettend veel van jou! Ik wil zoo supergraag met jou samenwonen! Lieve schat heb ik jou pijn gedaan lieve schat van mij?
Your air guitar was great! 🤣 I gotta say, you're a great drummer, i enjoy watching you play! Thanks for sharing!
I am an excellent air guitarist! LOL!! Thank you!

You're welcome! You are fortunate to play in a band good enough to do this song. Have fun!!

Cool!!! You should frame that piece of paper!!!
Thanks Steve, Great Job!!!

El cover con la afinación más cercana a la original, incluso las notas están correctamente ejecutadas en la mayoría de las partes. Brutal

Perfection Daniel! Bravo!!
Bravo. Played correctly. Great job
Espectacular... es casi mágico ver estos videos. Gracias Totales.
One the most fun songs to play on the drums, but the first minute is always awkward because you're just sitting there!
you are an excellent drummer steve congratulations
Thank you!!!
Awesome job dude! I wish I could learn how to spend my sticks also… I love watching Drummer’s do that, it’s showing off, but it’s so cool :-)
LOL!!! Yes, stick-spinning is a shameless show off move, but I can't help myself. Thank you!!!!

LOL!!! Steve Smith is a genius!!!! Thanks for commenting.
It was nice to see how this would be played out on a one up kit. Great job and great sound
Really nice. Still trying to figure out how he came up with this beat that one day in the studio. Genius
Absolutely, pure genius. Everything Steve Smith plays is fantastic. He's amazing!!!
Great job! Most drum covers of this song are played completely wrong. This was excellent.
Thank you! I'm just copying the genius of the original drummer, Steve Smith.
Great drumming. Thanks for sharing
Thank you!! I'm just trying to copy the actual drummer, the great Steve Smith.
Perfect!
I've never played anything perfect in my whole life but I thank you kindly nonetheless!!!
Muy bien !
Finally someone who listens to the song . Very good you got the ride and bell correct.
Thank you!! I'm just trying to copy Steve Smith, the virtuoso drummer who created this amazing drum part.

Everytime I listen to this song cant stop thinking in the last scene of The Sopranos.
Muy buen video !!
Very good! Congratulation!
Awesome ! Cover , someone playing it right !

Fantastic !!!!!!!
Very very impressive
Thank you!!! It's Steve Smith who's impressive for creating such an amazingly innovative drum part. I'm just a cheap copy cat. 🙂
Great job on a deceptively difficult song!
Thank you! Yes, I think someone has to be part octopus to play this song properly!! All credit goes to genius drummer, Steve Smith, for creating this amazing drum part.
Steve Tucco playing Steve ("Machine Gun") Smith = Awesome. Time for me to head to my Tama Set now...
Good going on copping that very unique drum set pattern.
Thank you! The great, Steve Smith is a genius for creating such an iconic drum pattern for this legendary song.
Steve and Mr Cake on trap set. Great stuff. One more time....

Great covers, what resonant heads do you use?

@@SteveToccoDrummer It's ok
It was a beast cover
