Tommy kicks ass. I bet lots of people could play this material, although not a single one of them would sound like this. More love drummers! It's not a contest!
Consistency and nuance of hits/dynamics was all there. Tommy is one of my favorite drummers, and both he and Yamaha drums brought life to this song and delivered big - both sounded great!
Tommy Aldridge playing "Amphibia" (Patrick Rondat). The recording of this album (Amphibia) is a great memory ! The bass- Patrice Guers, guitars- Patrick Rondat, and drums- Tommy Aldridge, were recording live at Ferber Studios in Paris.
Tommy can play, just cause you don't like his playing doesn't mean he can't play. He is one of the most influential rock drummers of all time.. Are you?
Who said he can't play I would like to meet the guy that said he can't play tommy is one of the most iconic drummers in the world he has made his own style and he's been copied by many
67 years old and still kickin ass and takin names.... hey all you new wimpy ass drummers of today, like Josh Dun, Dan Platzman, THIS is how you play the effin drums.... Tommy is a friggin legend!
My favorite drummer for 30 years. I bet a lot of drummers could emulate this but no one would actually sound like Tommy. Also I think that Tommy has extremely tasteful drumming.
Dude in the blue shirt and black ball cap..expression on his face during the performance, priceless!!!! You know that something is unique and special when your mouth is open for that long!!!!
Helps if you LOOK the part...Tommy is LEGEND...end of story. Anybody that does not get Tommy, does not get Tommy. No point discussing. Ignorant of history,--educate yourself. Tommy IS rock drumming. Rock drumming is not prog rock, fusion, funk, jazz...it is a style of its own and Tommy defines this genre. If you do not like the genre, this is a different argument or conversation. Stay on topic folks...
Bro i swear if you look up the word humility in a dictionary, a picture of tommy aldridge appears big in the front page So humble i really love that of him❤
great memory, nothing like standing a few feet in front of him as he absolutely demolished those drums, no mercy there. intense :-) thanks for posting.
Has anybody noticed how low his throne is compared to the snare drum and knees? Very unorthodox, but then again it's Tommy we're talking about! Beautiful drumming!
I've been watching Tommy Aldridge with Black oak Arkansas band Jim dandy Ruby star those were the days sinbads club Santa Monica Pier California awesome drummer
Archie, this video is fantastic.Really good to have a different viewpoint on Tommy's playing. Do you know if he's going to be playing the Oaks from now on?
Wow. Somebody get that snare drum to emergency! Some heavy hitting fluidity from a living legend right there. Crazy stuff from a cat that always has his foot right down on the gas. Crazy chokes towards the end as well.
damming awesome drummer and 65 and still has is cotton ball hair rock on Tommy hands down he smokes most heavy metal drummers in the 80s a nd now Gretchen job Tommy reminds me of the curely haired guy in the movie earthquake 70s something
Actually in truth, this video doesn't really do Tommy justice. I've seen him a couple of times performing clinics and he's a total monster. All single notes and he just rips it!
So many people going on about soul! Here's what needs to be understood. The only person who can adjudicate feel is the person behind the set. If you don't think there is feel here because he feels different than you, then you are demonstrating a lack of knowledge. Tommy is a great player. He's got phenomenal energy as a live performer, can drive a groove like a freight train, and has a great vocabulary around the set. There's no reason to think his playing his bad.
The song he played was Amphibia part 4, from french guitar hero Patrick Rondat, in which Tommy have performed in two of his album, Amphibia in 1996 and On The Edge in 1999, listen those albums ( available on Spotify ), because Patrick is one of the best instumental guitarist and composer.

A solid straight hard hitting really tastful pioneer of rock drumming. Go Tommy !
Serious drumming the cymbal chokes at the end was crazy!
beatsdddx if you blinked you would miss those chokes ... really something
Tommy was amazing with Ozzy and Randy ~ and he still has it today!
Amazing. One of the most authentic, inventive rock drummers of all time 🤘🏼
I love my Yamaha Oak Customs. I get so many jobs just from the kit. Thanks for rocking it Sir Aldridge. That was awesome.
Where can I find the you tube page and subscribe by tommy aldridge? Thank you
Tommy is just awesome, he hits so dang hard 🔥!

He has been my favorite all time drummer since I started listening to music. Never found one I liked better.
He has the same chops he had in the 80's.
who doesnt like his playing? everything seems positive down here
I think his best work is with Pat Travers Go For What You Know Live.
Who said he can't play I would like to meet the guy that said he can't play tommy is one of the most iconic drummers in the world he has made his own style and he's been copied by many

Excellent... the bouble bass father Mr Tommy Aldridge
I think he'd tell you that crown belongs to Louie Bellson.
It's a song from the french guitar player "Patrick Rondat", from the CD "On the Edge", 1999. Drums: Tommy Aldridge
You mean his '96 album "Amphibia" track "Amphibia Pt. 4".
My favorite drummer for 30 years. I bet a lot of drummers could emulate this but no one would actually sound like Tommy. Also I think that Tommy has extremely tasteful drumming.
Tommy hits em hard just like he should, love his drumming now 40+years
Is he 65 years old isn't he? That's amzing.
Dude in the blue shirt and black ball cap..expression on his face during the performance, priceless!!!! You know that something is unique and special when your mouth is open for that long!!!!

I hope to see Tommy again I saw him in Dublin with Thin Lizzy amazing shows
Has anybody noticed how low his throne is compared to the snare drum and knees? Very unorthodox, but then again it's Tommy we're talking about! Beautiful drumming!
Sounds great and great playing!
For sure, one of the greats.
His drum sound is so DOPE !!
The only drum solo that make sense, Thank you sir
and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Been a hero of mine since he started with Black Oak - how appropriate.
I just love that triplet lick he did on the kick at the end.
love his hair since 80s
Yeah!
I love this guy.
Awesome ending. Totally bad ass. Think I might have to purchase those.
I have ALWAYS Played LUDWIG kits BUT I bought a YAMAHA MAPLE CUSTOM kit and I LOVE THE SOUND!! IAM A FAN NOW👏👍☝️
I've been watching Tommy Aldridge with Black oak Arkansas band Jim dandy Ruby star those were the days sinbads club Santa Monica Pier California awesome drummer
Incredible double bass drummer👏👏👍👍☝️☝️
The guy is a legend back in the 70's with Black Oak I can't recall anyone maybe Carmine as well who were playing double bass drums like that
Saw him w/ Ozzy back in early 80's. Very solid pro. drummer.
Wonderful, fantastic, great power
My favorite drumers
Tommy Aldridge......unbelievable speed....🤘😎🔥
Saw him play with Black Oak Arkansas in ‘74. Amazing then, amazing now.
Seen him with Ozzy back in 1981 2 weeks before Randy Rhoads was killed. I was blown away with his drumming and 40 years later I'm still in awe.
Me also in Birmingham, Alabama. I was on the front row against the stage barrier and have some of the last photos ever taken of Randy!
Tommy will always be the best
I saw him when he played for Black oak he was one of the fastest dual bass drummers I've ever seen his feet were incredible the speed he's awesome
Tommy is a legend
Absolute respect to the pioneer's! The classic stick twirl...uhhh? Give me the "skinpounder", Tico anyday...:) Nice post.
He's playing to 'Patrick Rondat - Amphibia part -4'

Actually in truth, this video doesn't really do Tommy justice. I've seen him a couple of times performing clinics and he's a total monster. All single notes and he just rips it!
Nice!
