Do yourself a favor and listen to the live album Rainbow on Stage to hear the brilliance of Richie Blackmore, Cozy Powell, and Ronnie James Dio. It opens with Kill the King. Every track is a master class.
@@zephead64 without Long Live Rock and Roll he would miss Gates of Babylon, the title track, and one of my favorites LA connection. I would start with Rising, Long Live Rock and Roll, then Live on stage. Here the studio versions then top it of with the awesome Live album. IMHO.
That was one serious workout for Yoyoka. She's so young but was able to handle it so perfectly with really awesome power. And it didn't seem to stress or fatigue her. I really can't explain what it is that gives people like her the ability to become so outstanding at such a young age. BTW Wave, thank you for your insight. I saw this cover a few weeks ago, but there was so much that until now, I didn't see or understand.
I listened to this song so many times in my younger days, I feel like it’s coded in my DNA at this point. And she nails it. Crazy. Cozy was hard hitter with a jazz touch - look him up, and check out the original recording of this song, you will love him, and love Yoyoka even more!
She melds into the kit and is by far the most comfortable and balanced drummer I've ever seen! The sound she produces from her drums is other worldly . Just awesome!!😎😎😎
You must have heard of Rainbow (and ex-Deep Purple) guitarist Ritchie Blackmore? I think that after Hendrix he's the most inspirational guitarist in rock music. There's an arresting clarity in his playing.
At least in Japan, Cozy was the icon of double bass drum style. He influenced many drummers to change their style to double bass. And "Kill the King" was the most iconic tune for double bass drum. Still a masterpiece in 2021!! Yoyoka definitely inherited Cozy's vibes!! Wild off beat hi-hats and the double bass/tom works during the guitar solo!! She is so versatile, AMAZING!!
Apart from her playing crazy complicated things making it look super easy I can't get over how incredibly powerful her drumming is. It's definitely more stadium style drumming than rock club kind of drumming.
Listening to Rainbow in 1984 was how I got into Dio. This was, to me, one of the first supergroups. Each of members were outstanding musicians in their own rights.
As I have seen almost all of Yoyoka’s covers/performances, it’s almost a given to expect the power and impeccable technique. Her playing makes you forget again that she’s still a ‘baby’. She thrives with these complicated pieces which really showcases her awesome skills and put a shine on her gift. Such a joy to watch. Just letting her sticks do the entertaining. And I’m highly entertained. Like you Wave, I’ve never heard of this song and group and I’m learning so much from this young lady. She introduced me to songs or artists that I’m not familiar with and I’m so grateful. Can’t wait to see who she’s covering next. But I hope (I have an inkling) the next time I see her will be at the closing of the #Olympics. She seems pretty ‘quiet’ lately. 🤞🏼 Thanks for the reaction Wave. Until next time. 👍🥁🤘🏼
Never seen anyone change tempo so easily and flawlessly while always remaining in the pocket. And such powerful hits that she actually cracked two cymbals playing this. Luckily she has so many endorsements she can afford to destroy her kit in the name of perfection! Factory conversation.... "Yoyoka just killed another set of cymbals. You guys better fix our manufacturing process or you're all fired!" "Boss. We've tried everything. We even tried tungsten and titanium but she killed those also."
@@otaiman6728 Thanks Otai! I've never heard here referred to as "Little Godzilla". Akane is "Gorilla". JUNNA needs a name if she doesn't have one. They are ALL BEASTS!
This is my favourite Yoyoka drum cover since the last one, if anyone could sit in Cozy Powell's throne with Rainbow it's this young lady. I agree with Seorosa Maclately check out Dance with the Devil, I'd love to see the Soma family cover this one!
Hi buddy. Cool reaction and am glad youre learning new old rock music. Heavy stuff yet a pleasure for the ear and the mind to comprehend. Enjoying your videos. Fr9m Singapore
Cozy Powell (Colin Flooks) died in a car crash. He worked at various times with The Jeff Beck Group, Rainbow, Whitesnake, The Brian May Band, Emerson Lake and Powell (a spin off from ELP), and more.
Hi Wave Potter ,thank you for doing these great drum videos, I just discovered Yoyoka this evening and she blew me away. I was lucky to see Rainbow with Cozy Powell doing this as the opener for the concert in Munich in 1976, incredible show! Was 16 at the time, now both Cozy and Ronnie have left the building, but the memory stays, keep on rockin' !
Once again you That is you Added to our joy and appreciation. Yoyoka is incredible BUT I missed so much of what you celebrate here the first dozen times I watched this. So your superpower is to take something good (our initial experience) and make it many times better. Thank you sir!
Nice one Chris. I was getting a little miffed that Wave seemed to have passed this epic piece. I enjoyed his reaction though. Love it when Yoyo hits them from the blindside! Be safe my friend, Pat 🏴
Cozy Powell had a real cool Star Licks drumming video I had on VHS when I was learning double kick in my 20's. I'm 62 now and still drumming with double kicks at church!
Yes ! And with deep respect- very nice to see a younger person ( and fellow drummer) discover Cozy Powell and ‘Kill The King” . - one of my ultimate drugs song to play
Well, Rainbow was before your time. The group existed from 1974 to 1984.(with various line-ups) If you want to see some virtuoso work on the kick drums from Yoyoka, check out her version of Peter Gabriel's "Steam". Amongst the other drumming legends that Yoyoka can cover flawlessly: Neil Peart, John Bonham, Carmine Appice, Ian Paice & Stewart Copeland..She can also play adequate Keyboards, Guitar & bass. She can compose original songs too. and she's taking English lessons. Her technical progress has been scary. She is ranked (by Drummerworld) as one of the 500 best drummers in the world.
Now you know why I couldn’t believe you had not reacted to this Wave! A legendary performance covering legendary musicians. The good thing is that it’s awesome watching your reaction when something new ( to you) takes you so much by surprise. It’s like Vands first reaction to a Yoyoka cover, “W W W what?” Lol. Fun and informative as always Wave, thank you. Pat 🏴
I used to click on her videos because she makes me happy. Seeing a cute little girl beat the crap out of a drum set and having fun makes me smile. Now I click on her videos to watch one of the best drummers alive today.
Isn't this just wonderful wave I actually know all the songs that she plays that's what got me started looking at her videos I never paid as much attention to the drums before always the guitar that was exciting to me but now whoa
Probably also earlier in the song, but starting at 8:49 I would say I can hear Burn overtones. With Ritchie Blackmore playing (original Deep Purple) I should not be surprised.
Cozy was one of my most favorite drummers ever. In fact, before leaving this comment, I just had to zip over to watch Jeff Beck and Cozy Powell jam out on a heavy funk/soul/hard rock song (sounds like a Band-Maid song don't it) called "Got The Feeling" recorded live at the Beat Club in 1971. Anyway, Rainbow is a top band, but if you check them out, there were several phases of Rainbow. You want the the first phase with Dio on vocals. Cozy played on those albums. Check out "Stargazer" (amazing drum intro) and "Man on the Silver Mountain".
Ronnie James Dio had the greatest rock voice, and his band has been associated with Ozzy Osborn, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep and more. Dio passed away from cancer a few years back and it was a great loss. Rainbow in The Dark May be one song you might have heard, but he had many rock hits.
@@340rps yeah she doesn't have much standing, it's mostly sitting from what I've seen. most drummers sit, I believe. this is a joke btw, in case no one gets out.
It's one thing to "play" a song, it entirely another to "perform" a song. She's got that. There's probably so many other artists that want to collab with her. She's gonna be sooooo busy and in demand. Already is, really.
Great reaction and you probably don't know Rainbow as that was back in the 70's. But if you listen, you'll hear echo's of Burn and this is Richie Blackmore's band after quitting Deep Purple. I'm betting her parents know this band as they seem to cover a lot of the 60's/70's rock.
MAN you said it she's freckin awesome .check out cosy Powells dance with the devil that's drumming at another level mt so glad you covered this a well done from me.
What's even more incredible is she does this by ear. She can read music, but she says she is too lazy. She listens to the music a few times then her dad sets up cameras and she goes for it. One shot no editing.
Rainbow was probably the hottest band of the late seventies and was a spin of from another mega band called Deep Purple. For more of Cozy Powell you can check out his work with Emerson, Lake, and Powell, or more Rainbow from the On Stage, live album.
There are a lot of amazing points in this video, but the tempo change at 2:27 and 2:45, which you also pointed out, changed the quick whip-like hand movements into what seems like slow motion (although the foot pedal movement is the same as before). I couldn't believe that she could go from such repetitive and fast hand movements to such precise tempo changes without stopping. Also, her snare and toms are properly tuned and muted, so even when she hits them hard, it doesn't interfere with the singer's voice.
I don't really know music but it sounded like a lot of creativity there and her energy and showmanship is amazing. I saw you asked for a Yoyoka cover of The Dance of Eternity. While you're waiting for that, Tamu of Nemophila has covered The Dance of Eternity here: ruclips.net/video/ZsuH0xRvLbU/видео.html
It would be unfair to expect that Yoyoka can already play such a complex piece. She still lacks the experience and the speed with the double kicks. Tamu was about 25 when she played it and she comes from the jazz corner.
It's a generational thing. Rainbow was the band founded by Ritchie Blackmore after leaving Deep Purple. Blackmore basically invented the metal shred solo, before anyone called it metal. Rainbow featured Ronnie James Dio and Cozy Powell. Dio, of course, was probably the definitive metal vocalist. Go check out everything they did, it will change your life.
If you liked Rainbow then you might also want to give a listen to another influential, yet strangely overlooked, British band, UFO. Particularly their 70's and 80's albums, maybe starting with Phenomenon...
I do believe her parents who are not so old rockers point her in this direction sometimes. I know Yoyo scans RUclips for music and she loves to read. She is so bright that nothing she does surprises me as it used to. I just accept she’s a brilliant young lady. Pat 🏴
Hey Wave. I have been wondering about her finding this music, I mean she was into it liberally from age 2. There has to have been a guide in there somewhere, and its got to be her parents. Soma's are tight, you know-"the family that plays together..." Anyway. I have to give huge wraps to "the guide(s)". And I need to have that confirmed. Yoyo-san sends this one into space man. Damn, she was always a prodigy, she just does not slow down, improving all the time... 🤯, mind blown.
In another video, Yoyoka explains how she finds the songs she likes to cover by listening to CDs, RUclips etc. She says for example that she found 'Good Times, Bad Times' herself and her parents weren't aware of the song.
Killer tune On stage live album by Raimbow was one of my early records owned. I love it and I still currently listen to. Yoyoka to the top as adual. Congrstulation for uouf channel too
Can't believe you've never heard of Rainbow bro. That's where Ronnie James Dio kind of became a household name, and then the afore mentioned Cozy Powell. And maybe you've heard of the guitarist... a guy named Ritchie Blackmore...? Anyway, I've been a big fan for many years and Miss Yoyoka nailed it! Cheers!
It's funny but I really can't believe that this young lady is only 11 years old, playing so loud and with the precision of a metronome, I don't know what to say only, WOW Lol :)
As a musician I know that the drummer is the one who sets the beat for the song but since she's playing along with an already produced song I will make this comment. First I think the Yoyoka is an amazing drummerbut in the first half of this song she was a little ahead of the beat but dead on in the 2nd half. Just something i noticed. She's a prodigy and I love watching her play.
Wonderful! How is that possible at her age 😀 I saw Rainbow 🌈 in 1976 on their first tour. What a band. Cozy had a big unique sound, in many ways on a par with Zepp’s John Bonham. This is one of the best concert openers. Unfortunately Ritchie didn’t rate it as highly as the fans and left it out of his Rainbow reunion concerts in 2018. There is a DVD of a great gig in Germany 🇩🇪 in 1977 which Blackmore managed to get to at the last minute as he’d been arrested on the previous gig. He intervened when a bouncer manhandled a female fan near the stage (RB broke his jaw apparently)
Wooww mantaap, kopi mana kopi, Wave? Yoyoka did an amazing cover to Kill The King's Cozy Powell drum.. You know Wave, there's only 2 best rock drummer in the planet, Cozy Powell of Rainbow and Scott Travis of Judas Priest. Both of 'em are monsters.
I think this person is reincarnated as Cozy Powell. What an awesome young drummer. BTW I know you never heard of Rainbow or Cozy Powell she is playing it note for note, which makes it more spectacular . I've had drummers In profession bands, That did not like this song. Remember we had no speed pedals back in those days you really had to do the double kick. Calf and Ankle cramps lol So we dropped that cover lol it wasn't worth the aggravation or fighting.
I think she has four brains! One for each limb! Otherwise, how could they all be doing something dramatically different with each limb at the same time with only one brain!

@@WavePotter
Is your name really ‘Wave’ ?
Yoyoka posted a picture on Instagram after recording this of two cracked cymbals. She said “I killed two cymbals when I played Kill the King”.
I didn't notice that hate to see her lose a symbol but what a banger
You can see the bend on the big Zildjian crash on her left...I played my Zildjians hard, for over 40 years and never broke a one, except for a 10" splash back in '87

Spot on Greg. I can’t believe Wave has not heard of these legends! This is def one of Yoyoka’s finest. Epic! Pat 🏴
I agree, but he really should start with Rainbow Rising, and Long Live Rock and Roll before live on stage.
On Stage and Rising!
@@zephead64 without Long Live Rock and Roll he would miss Gates of Babylon, the title track, and one of my favorites LA connection. I would start with Rising, Long Live Rock and Roll, then Live on stage.

Yes. RIP Cozy. Yoyoka’s covers are note perfect. Little to no improvisation.
Ditto. I've been listening to, and loving, this track since '78, so each of Cozy's strokes are deep inside my memory. Yoyoka has it down.
She cracked two cymbals on this one. Little powerhouse! Thanks for your reaction, Wave!
Yoyoka continues to be incredible. After this 5-6 minute long workout, which she executes perfectly, she's not even breathing hard. She is a BEAST.
She melds into the kit and is by far the most comfortable and balanced drummer I've ever seen! The sound she produces from her drums is other worldly . Just awesome!!😎😎😎
I love your drum knowledge. I have no idea what I’m looking at or listening for.
Yoyoka is simplicity, no unnecessary gestures, extravagance, just a piece performed with confidence and love.
You must have heard of Rainbow (and ex-Deep Purple) guitarist Ritchie Blackmore? I think that after Hendrix he's the most inspirational guitarist in rock music. There's an arresting clarity in his playing.

Yoyoka is pretty much set up for life.. Shes mastered the drum kit, but what`s next for her, teacher or touring band?
Her foot speed is unreal
Had to RUclips ghost note to understand what you meant 😂
Rainbow are a British rock supergroup, formed in London and Los Angeles in 1975 by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore.
It's a generational thing. Rainbow was the band founded by Ritchie Blackmore after leaving Deep Purple. Blackmore basically invented the metal shred solo, before anyone called it metal. Rainbow featured Ronnie James Dio and Cozy Powell. Dio, of course, was probably the definitive metal vocalist. Go check out everything they did, it will change your life.

Anyway, I've been a big fan for many years and Miss Yoyoka nailed it!
Cheers!
It's funny but I really can't believe that this young lady is only 11 years old, playing so loud and with the precision of a metronome, I don't know what to say only, WOW Lol :)
What's crazier is that she posted to her Instagram after this showing where she cracked two of her cymbals.
I'd love to see that photo.

@@JasonBlair Hey! Thanks Jason!
See the intro in Stargazer.And of course the whole song.
If you know this song she’s played it at 99.99% perfect. Cozy would be proud.
Cozy Powell RIP would approve
日本にはステキな女性ドラマー沢山活躍してますよ。
Check out her cover of sass Jordan high road easy
As a musician I know that the drummer is the one who sets the beat for the song but since she's playing along with an already produced song I will make this comment. First I think the Yoyoka is an amazing drummerbut in the first half of this song she was a little ahead of the beat but dead on in the 2nd half. Just something i noticed. She's a prodigy and I love watching her play.
Wonderful! How is that possible at her age 😀
I saw Rainbow 🌈 in 1976 on their first tour. What a band. Cozy had a big unique sound, in many ways on a par with Zepp’s John Bonham. This is one of the best concert openers. Unfortunately Ritchie didn’t rate it as highly as the fans and left it out of his Rainbow reunion concerts in 2018. There is a DVD of a great gig in Germany 🇩🇪 in 1977 which Blackmore managed to get to at the last minute as he’d been arrested on the previous gig. He intervened when a bouncer manhandled a female fan near the stage (RB broke his jaw apparently)
Wooww mantaap, kopi mana kopi, Wave?
Yoyoka did an amazing cover to Kill The King's Cozy Powell drum.. You know Wave, there's only 2 best rock drummer in the planet, Cozy Powell of Rainbow and Scott Travis of Judas Priest. Both of 'em are monsters.
She hits so hard.
god shes phenomenal
Side note… this song is actually about a game of chess.
The early albums with singer Ronnie James Dio and Cozy Powell are the best.
I think this person is reincarnated as Cozy Powell. What an awesome young drummer. BTW I know you never heard of Rainbow or Cozy Powell she is playing it note for note, which makes it more spectacular . I've had drummers In profession bands, That did not like this song. Remember we had no speed pedals back in those days you really had to do the double kick. Calf and Ankle cramps lol So we dropped that cover lol it wasn't worth the aggravation or fighting.
I think she has four brains! One for each limb! Otherwise, how could they all be doing something dramatically different with each limb at the same time with only one brain!
Something has to account for the complete independent control she has of her 4+ quadrants.
Barely off subject here... Her drums always sound awesome of course, as you've said. Did you know she uses 11 mics?
Listen to Rainbows song Stargazer..top 10 of all
👍
Never heard of Cozy Powell?
I predict you will meet Yoyoka in about six months. :)
Good prediction! 😂
You know Yoyoka plays every instrument and does lead vocals and back up, on her cover of the Beatles
Thanks for letting me know! And yes I did know that! Amazing musician.

Disapointed! I was waiting to see your version of "Kill the King" Wave, like you usually do ?
Aww thanks Andrew! Maybe someday! 😅
Not heard of Rainbow, or Cozy Powell? Surely he must have heard of Deep Purple and Whitesnake.
