..the last of the oldstyle powerdrummer in hardrock still playing on a level that is totally crazy...what an absolute legend! 🙏
70+ & whips 99% of the drumming population! So jealous.
Really ??Tommy Lee still plays and he is more of a groove in the pocket drummer,he still hits the drums HARD and I just wish we'd hear some more of the way he drummed on that 1994 Record when they brought Corabi in,cuz he showed just how good he can be,when not limited by certain style of songwriting!!
@@raypratt3611 ..Tommy Lee is not on Tommys level..far from it...around Girls Girls I think he had his peak. Tommy still plays as good as ever...
Great words.
@@raypratt3611 Tommy who ? This is Time to honour the all mighty ,Tommy Aldridge !!! Tommy Lee could not even carry this man's drum sticks ! You believe this dude ? Tommy Aldridge just gave us an all out assault at 70 years old Good grief ,I have a mind to kick you in the shin ! Tommy Lee is a good drummer ,I would not say, he is a great drummer . I just hope to be around still at 70!
This guy will keep on drumming until the day he dies. Tommy is an absolute greatest.
Amein brother.
First at all, he gonna kill all the drums and cymbals.
Tommy is immortal, everyone knows that!
I've been playing drums all my life. Let me tell you folks something,...back in the 80's, I was a teenager, & had already been playing for 8 or 9 yrs. Man, I was a Tommy Aldridge wannabe. Well, NOW it's 2020. I've been playing for about 42 yrs.
.....and I'm a Tommy Aldridge wannabe.
Woooooh ,yes brother ,I love all Tommy fans and the man himself .Salute.
As a proud Canadian its bordering on blasphemy to say this but Tommy has been my number one fave drummer (would maybe even give up my left one to have him as the other half of the engine room of our band) and the late great Neil Peart was number two. Tommy doesnt play with so much technical flash as a rule - although he certainly can, I ve heard him play straight ahead jazz style too - but Ive never heard anyone else play with that raw power that says I fuckin mean it with every stroke. And any young drummer looking at going down the double kick road should carefully study everything he recorded. Over and over. His technique is not only fantastic its unique and unlike most young guys, even though he uses the double kick so much and so well, his snare and hi-hat technique hasnt suffered.
Ive made some rough loops where I isolated his drums the closest Im ever likely to get to play with him lets just say those are not my neighbors fave practice days. Crying In The Rain, Bad Boys, Fool For Your Lovin, from various live recordings, and between now and xmas I plan to see what I can do with the whole Slip Of The Tongue record. That was the first one of theirs I heard all the way through and the drums sound good on it so relatively easy to make something of decent quality.
If youre interested in a copy let me know and when Ive got it ready I can hook you up.
@@spiderbass4hire474 I got to see Tommy twice and I know he is a drummer of high skill.
I'm a Clive Burr wannabe since about that time. I understand you completely
I was introduced to the skin bashing madman on the Diary of a Madman tour and was an instant fan, especially with a henchman standing behind him to hand sticks to the great one when he decided to throw them to the audience. Yes T.A. Is on another level, him and Randy Castillo always my favorite. I have one of R.C. Sticks that he handed me.
70 years, a lot of #1 bands, music worker, long live to Tommy Aldridge.
Guys older than dirt.. plays harder,with more passion,and showmanship than any youngblood out there now. schools in session pay attention!
EXACTLY !!
Schools em
But then there Danny Carrey
@@Vor_Tex_Sun cant knock danny... guys phenomenal
@@Vor_Tex_Sun Danny Carey Is one of My all time Faves ,Danny Carey is 6'5". ,Tommy is Hardly 5'10" and They're only about 9 years ..Conclusion They're both freaking awesome and yes I wish I have this energy When or If I Make it to 70 lol... Passion is # 1 for drums
Love the energy Tommy puts into his art.
This man is what drumming is all about. Glad we still have this man with us today.
To the critics (who are just being critical): Sometimes greatness has more to do with your body of work, professionalism, and numbers of lives influenced by what you do and how you do it. Degree of difficulty has nothing to do with greatness. Tommy’s great at what HE does and he’s left his mark on the rock world. Something to consider.
Joe Feldpausch if you’re willing to see it, Tommy’s influence on drumming AND style/technique is ALL OVER the drummers from the 70s, 80s, 90’s and beyond. And if that’s not enough for everyone, he’s one of the nicest and most humble guys you’ll ever meet. VERY under rated.
Robert Scovill Tommy certainly influenced me as a drummer in the 80s and 90s when I played drums in rock bands. I loved his humility, dedication, and he really taught me the art of double bass drumming.
Tommy is a great drummer. Problem is we are in the era of the RUclips drummer where we get to see all this incredible technical playing that lacks any type of human feel. Might as well be a drum machine. Tommy Aldridge is probably one of the best rock ‘n’ roll drummers out alive.
Tommy doesn't just play the drums, he annihilates them. I challenge any one of these self obsessed critics to do what this man or any of the other greats does at their age. Absolutely phenomenal stuff. I'm curious to know what kind of cardio some of these guys do to keep in drumming shape and not perspire behind the kit. I mean look at Bill Ward, hasn't he had 2 or 3 heart attacks already. Hell, Sib Hasian died behind a kit while on tour.
@Tom Johnson This is one song that happens to be fill heavy and in their live show leads into his drum solo which is why he plays it at drums shows and clinics.
The man the Legend. Such a bad ass still. I freaking love his drumming!
Salute.
It's amazing how the great drummers just get better with age. I have never been a fan of double bass players but Tommy makes it sounds so tasteful and never over does it.
Todd Sucherman, Simon Phillips, John Bonham, and Tommy Aldridge. The most distinctive drum sounds I've ever heard.
You know your stuff about drumming! You put those four unbelievable players in the same sentence.
Ian pace cozy Powell
I'd like to add Clive Burr and Bill Ward, but it's still an impressive list
Don't forget Vinny Appice
Brooks Wackerman is close behind Todd Sucherman, but Sucherman is the master.
Had Dinner with him years ago after a clinic. Incredibly smart man and as nice of a guy as you will ever meet!
What did you eat?
One of THE greatest drummers in rock history...Tommy Aldridge!!!👍
No doubt.
@Range Man Well, he WAS doing drum clinics until this Dempanic started because of this 99% survival virus!!!😕
How can he play so well? Easy, he respects his craft (and us the fans) and never stopped playing with passion.
The only drummer I want to meet. I owe him my left foot since early 70's 9th grade. Saw him with B.O.A. Lincoln Ne. I ordered a 14 x 22 that weekend, rode the bus to Sound City Music laid down 200 bucks and a week later I started. Thanks Tommy. I'm still at it at 61. Jim
Never was a big fan of BOA,but Aldrich and Shawn Lane were monsters on their axes that transcended BOA's corny musical style.
You would be very lucky. I met him back in the 90s at a drum clinic in Sacramento. The part I remember most is during the Q&A session. Someone asked, "What advice would you give young drummers just starting out?" His answer, "Take lessons. Definitely take lessons. I feel I could have done a lot more if I had taken lessons."
Done more?!?!
DONE MORE?!?!?!
Actually almost the only rock star I'm interested in meeting. Would like to have met Bob Daisley also.
And why exactly would u owe him a body part??u took what u learned from watching him and.....is this Tommy Lee or....not really sure what u owe him for???
I met him in February. I was at Sydney airport and guess who was behind me at the security check?
One of the most solid hard rock drummers ever to grace this earth. Legend in every sense of the word
My favorite Tommy Aldridge is with Pat Travers Live: "Go For What You Know". Great band
YUP...he was the double bass master than...today it seems basic, but back then...mindblowin stuff...his placement of the notes
Yes, he ripped.
Snortin’ whiskey isn’t too
Bad either.
Tommy Hammerhead
Aldridge.. With PT
i actually saw him with pat travers, the thing about that was his double bass 8th note triplets boom boom out go the lights
Superb drummer. He's played with the best and still got it.
Tommy's a freaking machine.
dude blows me away everytime.. flash hands and heavy hittin.. such a small framed guy and hes a powerhouse... love tommy aldridge man.. just aces!!! hes been around for the rock of ages
I think 🤔 you’re spot on. Being a smaller framed guy is a lot of what helps his playing. He’s got agility and speed in his playing. Definitely having a leaner athletic frame helps.
Can watch Tommy play allday n night's man no matter how old he's still kicking asses.thanks for being the dork from f Tommy Rock 🥌
He has been playing this same solo forever. That in itself is impressive.
Tommy is a perfectionist on the custom Yamaha drums, legend & really fast.
Brilliant!
Love you TOMMY !!!
Nearly 70 years old and still better than all of us :)
Rock on Tommy! A legend in his own class!
Still killing it after all these year's. Will always be an inspiration to other drummers👍👍
I saw him at a drum clinic a few years back didnt know much about him. I was SHOCKED how hard he hit, nothing could touch him. LEGEND
Tommy Aldridge, one of my earliest influences and still a source of inspiration. Sure, we can all play double bass, trips, quads, sextuplets, etc, it's the way Tommy puts his phrasing together that sets him apart from the masses.....
I saw him at my second show with OZZY and Randy at the Forum in LA. What a night, AWESOME SHOW!!! Tommy was def. part of that!!!
while 118 people were sucking a lemon Tommy became a legend. You rock!
I still have this guy's lessons on VHS from the early 90's.
I still remember when he talks about an underdeveloped left foot and how awful they sound! lol classic!
This rock and roll animal is nearly 70 in this video. Take care of yourselves, people, and you can kick this much ass at 70!
I saw him in Little Rock 1974 playing with Black Oak Arkansas. A beast then and still a beast!
Tommy still kills it!!! Legendary status.
MONSTER!! ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL TIME!!
one of the most beautiful drums for colors and wonderful drummer
Who’s done as many live shows or classic recordings as this man has in the last 40 years?
Not to mention, on the world stage of 70+ year old players still bringing powerful and creative performances? RESPECT 🙏🤘👍
Doublebass drumming icon & pioneer 😍🤘😍🤘😍🤘
WE FUCKIN JUST LOVE YOU TOMMY ALDRIDGE!! FOREVER BROTHER! LEGENDS NEVER DIE!
Changed My Life, Tommy did!
always my favorite, seen him three times 2 with Ozzy 1 with Whitesnake
I can watch this forever
Seen him twice with Travers. One of my hero's. Monster, showman, idol.
Saw him as drummer for Black Oak Arkansas, Ozzy, Pat, and in Whitesnake to me he's in my Top 5 hard rock drummers
He did some awesome phrasing on speak of the devil.
What a beast!!!
Without a doubt one of the most under appreciated drummers of all time!!
He had a drum tutorial video out on VHS years ago. I learned a lot about his style from it. In it he said, and I am paraphrasing " The drums are a very physical instrument, its not like some keyboard or guitar player over there picking his nose, you know I have seen a lot of great drummers before and while they were great it was like watching them playing to a different record or something. (meaning their movements dont match the sound as they play). I beleive people go to show they want to see a show. " This is why he is such a showman, I believe Gene Krupa was quite a showman also. In the video he showed his stick twirling technique, which is in my opinion is super sick and what seperates his twirling style from others is while he may have one hand in twirling and so much dam sound is still coming out of his set, and it messes with your mind. You can see this in this demo clip. Also the one handed cymbal mutes, rapid- both hands. Jaw dropping sickness. He explains in his tutorial his practice of the single stroke roll with the feet. and also his 3 foot 3 hand and 3 foot 2 hand technique. Nobody was doing that. For me being a drummer myself trained under the sounds of Bonham, peart and others,- i have seen numerous greats play and always sort of understood what they were doing. When I saw Tommy A. live numerous times during the concert he did things I had no idea what the hell he was doing and how he was pulling off all the sounds coming out of his kit, not to mention looking super bad ass while doing it. Dude is one of a Kind!!!!
I would like to have at my 40's his energy at 70's.
All that talent and one of the nicest guys in the business
So good love you tommy ppwerhouse king of double bass
Wow what a madman. I remember seeing him do this solo in the 80's and was blown away. He hasn't slowed down at all. The guy is unreal!
amazing after all these years
Saw him many times at Winterland in the 70's...he and the band were crazy
This man is owning these drums. Damn good drummer. Drums look beautiful
Tommy never gets old
This man is THE main reason I still listen to Ozzy's "Speak of the Devil" album to this day.
❤❤❤ FOLLOWED TOMMY FOR OVER 44 YEARS. HE STILL DELIVERS ❤❤❤
Jee ...he doesn’t get old!
He's simply a monster 👏
Tommy played with Gary Moore in late 1980, recorded what would eventually become the Dirty Fingers album, as well as do a short tour with him around November 1980, which is when the 'Live At The Marquee' album was recorded. Tommy's drumming there is brilliant!
I hope I have that much energy and skill at 70 something years of age. What a freak.
I'v Seen Him When He Was With
Black Oak Arkansas. .
Him Carl Palmer.and Cozy Powell ... Great times in the 70s
My first time at a concert was Black Sabbath, and their warm up band was Sweat Hog with Barry “Frosty” Smith on drums, and I watched his solo played with his hands and was amazed. This reminds me of that GREAT concert.
damn, I never realized how much of a beast this guy is until now.
incredible!! The one and only Tommy Aldridge
It really begins and ends with Tommy Aldridge. The GOAT!!!
This is my new drum hero 🥁🥁🥁🥁
Even when he loses his time it sounds right. Total powerhouse legend.
What a powerhouse! The man has sledgehammers for fists.
1st Tommy sighting was with Pat Travers opening for Rush. Neil ! was watching his solo from sidestage!!!
Then caught him with Ozzy during the infamous Motley Crue tour. Thin Lizzy show I caught Tommy in a small club in Detroit.
Lucky enough to have met him twice and he's hella nice guy too.
Drumming Legend.
Neil ,forever the student,I love both of these guys ,Tommy and Neil were peers in my outlook.Maybe some day we will meet in the resurrection ,Neil Peart ,fellow Canadian.Take care you all.
Nothing but total respect for this humble gentleman. Tommy Aldridge is a powerhouse in every sense.
The true “Animal” of the drum world!!
What a total badass
A pleasure to Watch!
this man is a legend i love when it lift up is hand and turn around over head wow !!! great man long life at 70 Wow
When the video is shot and you can only see Tommy’s back , it doesn’t even look like a human being is playing. It’s that impressive
Definitely an Icon
Love Tommy Aldridge! Awesome in every musical way! Seen him in 83’ Bark at the Moon tour with Ozzy, so unreal to hear him live jus blew me away at14 and always after seen him at the top of all the real ROCK drummers!
A MONSTER!
And one Hell of a human being, class act!!

You have been one of my biggest influences.
GOD Bless you.
Legend at work 😎 Absolute BEAST
Tommy Aldridge:. I don't need no freaking drum sticks. Killer solo
Holy shit! How does he do it at 67-68 years old? Absolutely incredible
For me best drummer ever. Awesome
Incredible! Amazing! Fenomenal! Unbeliveble
What a drummonster!!!! Only double bass drummer I really admire, old school, an icon.
Absolutely awesome sound of toms
Amazing!!
I grew up listening to Tommy, epic! What a legend! Loved watching this! Tommy you are the true Rocker! Rock on! 🤘🥁🤘DC
1 of my all time favorite rock drummers!!!
Love his passion. He's got some great chops and hits those drums like nobody's business.
This guy is the true definition of hard rock drummer!
Surprisingly complex, especially the cymbal timings! Love that crazy left hand air circle thing he does before the hit. Great pulse.
And then the powerful hand percussion at the end!!!
Thanks!!!! Amazing!!Ya
one of my favorite drummers with a very powerful sound
I have been watching Tommy play like a maniac since the 1970's. He remains humble even though he may be one of the greatest drummers of all time, regardless of the style. Just a phenom, No one willl ever replace a guy like Tommy in the music world.
Man with this resume is top of food chain. Seen him 6 times with B.O.A.,2 Times Pay travers, 1 with Ozzy ,2 with whitesnake. Can steel kick a---@!! One of the greatest underrated drummers ever !!
Dude is a PHENOM
Energized! This is not nostalgia, it's truth !!!!
Gotta dig the left handed cymbal chokes around 1:18 mark. Amazing stuff my man....still amazing after all of these years. Thank you SO much.
The tune on the drums, this kit know his master
Will always be one of my ALL-TIME favorite drummers, since the Pat Travers days!
