7 years later, and you're still bad a**I really admire you dude. I'm 67 and after all the years of not having a drum set. I finally bought about a $5000. Yamaha Drum set because my first wife in 1979. She left me and took my drum set. It took me a lot of years to get back again. We're I wanted to be. But I Never wanted to be in a band I just love playing The drums and listening to music. God bless brother In Jesus name Amen
It is refreshing to see a drummer being a drummer. I like your choices of songs. They are well written pop songs but still offer a challenge to the drummer. I am tired of the drummers with 100 piece sets trying to play the fastest most odd time signatures. It is always about the groove.
Thanks glider208. I just try to put myself in the drummer's seat and try to play it as I think Sandy might have played it. I've never seen him play it so, it's just a stab in the dark.
I DON'T THINK THEY GIVE DRUMMERS THE RECOGNISES THEY DESERVE, WHAT IS A BAND WITHOUT THEM,, I WISH I COULD HAVE THAT MUCH TALENT, NEVER LEAVE THEM IN THE BACKGROUND, ITS NOT ABOUT ONLY YOU ,SINGING, NOTE,,LOOK AT SENA M
Excellent..Excellent!!,Drum Cover of a really good '70's song by Heatwave....I love that Tom Tom roll and you're a great drummer for sure my friend..That's a truly hard piece to learn and you didn't miss a beat👍👍
Genius drummer, his heatwave groove line cover was genius, I have never heard or saw anyone do cover versions as remarkable as this man, MASSIVE RESPECT 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I had the pleasure of seeing 'The Voice' Benny Mardones perform live many times in Syracuse, NY. The first time was at the infamous outdoor show at 'Long Branch Park in 1984, the show that started the love affair between Benny and Central New York. His voice could give you chills on a 90 degree evening as he belted out "Into the Night" in front of thousands of Syracuse fans! Sadly for the last several years he has been battling Parkinson's disease and has had to stop performing in public. His last show was last December at the Turning Stone Casino just outside of Syracuse, NY at his annual Christmas concert. Sadly I wasn't in attendance. I really enjoyed your drum cover to "Into The Night"
Back doing my dancing days an you playing like this i would never sit down you kept going and again i just live how much you show your enjoyment of playing can't wait to see your update drum covers
haven't been on youtube in a while Alan ,,, but you are the man !!!!!!!! you just don't cover a song ,, you are 100% correct beat by beat , this is my all time fav along with gino I just wanna stop !!!!!! hats off to you man !!!!!! hope life is treating you well my friend
I would love to get your autograph and say ......u r good very talented so u are the one playing drums on one of my favorite songs now i know....perfect
Great sound. Love that snare. Probably one of the better tunings I've heard in a while. And to be honest, it sounds like the original 1980 recording. Flawless and smooth performance. I love when a drummer has that control and knows when to stick to the original and not do stupid fills that throw the flow off. Excellent performance. Mr. Gennaro and Mr. Mardones would be proud. Cheers!
This is so perfect that...were it not for the fact that the drums are just a little louder than the rest of the mix...I'd think it was the record. Playing, tuning, timbre are all spot-on! One of the best pop/rock songs ever recorded...by one of the greatest voices. Chills...
Awesome. Always loved the drums. It's the heart beat of the songs. Benny's in to the night will always be one of those songs on my list of favs.you got to close your eyes when you hear it and feel it...Yea
Dude! Tim! What a drum track you laid down for that tune! I LOVE the tom hit you came up with and the feel that the drums give the song overall. It made the song. Not to mention the crescendo at the end then fades the song out. Brilliant! Can you share any drum details from the studio when you recorded it or any interesting info or tidbits? And, thank you for commenting and watching! I hope I did it justice. ~ Alan
Being a drummer myself, I certainly enjoy listening and watching a drummer doing what he does best…….No crazy speed contests, no fancy stick twirling. Just holding down the song in a smooth and precise manner. Well done😎
nice, we were asked to do this song like 3x this summer, I heard it before when it came out , but I never knew the name, thanks, now I can follow your lead , for this summer gigs
absoluty brilliant. well done. flawless performance.
Thanks Allan! I've always loved this tune so it's easy for me to play.
Brilliant
@@zerodefectmachineWOW you should be on every s ong you are the best!! Keep playing!

@@zerodefectmachine your damm GOOD
@@zerodefectmachine I mean it
this is actually a challenging song to play in drums because there is so much open space and nuances. great hi-hat work!
Never be ANY other like it!
One of the actual greatest songs ever! It's literally timeless💖🎶#IntoTheNight
I feel the same way about it. Even if you stripped out the vocals, the song and melody are beautiful on their own.
Man...this dude is phenomenal on these drums! Is he in a famous band? He damn well should be! 👍
I agree!
Yes! Agree!
Someone taught you real well...I could watch you for years even a lifetime!!!
Teaching it is one thing- feeling it, being in it, is what this man does. I could watch him all day long.
My favorite song of all time,you are amazing thank you for sharing!
Me too
Benny would be proud 👍 excellent job sir
Thank ya, sir.

No genius, I've just been playing these songs for decades. Even a monkey could do it.
Such a gifted drummer Alan, great drum cover to a great song, I'm sure Benny would be smiling down at you right now with his approval.
Man, I hope so. Such a great song and melody.
by far the best drum cover I have seen.

RIP Benny Mardones. I wasn't aware he died last year. Just wished he could have a bigger catalogue other than this classic.
Yes, I agree. Very unique voice and style.
