    From Todd himself:
    "The main theme is based on sustaining 16ths on the snare drum while developing melody ideas on the toms. This takes the use of pataflaflas, flam taps, flam triplets and other rudiments to achieve. Then it developes and goes elsewhere but comes back to the main theme. Enjoy! (And yes, that’s a Tony Williams “Sister Cheryl” quote that bridges sections!)"

    Holy fuck. This is not a drum solo, it's a song in itself.. Holy hell that is impressive..

    Todd is arguably the one of best drummers alive right now. Power, precision, versatility, and GROOVE.. he really has it all at the highest level!! 👏😎

  • @randyporter3491
    @randyporter3491 3 года назад +26

    This is playing the music, not just the beat. There's always been something different about Todd's style and it's hard to describe, but he's special.

  • @Dil_Moran
    @Dil_Moran 7 лет назад +100

    Probably the most inspiring solo I've ever listened to/seen. There is not one thing id do differently, it's just so perfect. Everything about it. Dudes a legend

  • @progdrummermark
    @progdrummermark 7 лет назад +71

    Todd has some of the tastiest drumming vocabulary to choose from. Reminds me of how Benny Greb solos, and that man's drumming vocab is ridiculous!

  • @Mekratrig
    @Mekratrig 6 лет назад +78

    I'm not a musician, can't play an instrument, but still think this is fascinating. Can't even imagine the amount of time it took to be able to control each arm and foot independently of one another like this. Only wish whoever filmed this video would keep the small inset window of his feet onscreen all the time. I'm betting Todd Sucherman has to be one of the best drummers around.

      I’ve played drums on and off for years. There is so much room for improvement all the time. Any instrument takes time and talent. But yea it is really hard coordinating all limbs at the same time. 😆

      haha.. noticed that too.. so cool!

    • @suburbanindie
      @suburbanindie 4 года назад +2

      It's kind of a half-mute, honestly only necessary if you're in the middle of a fill. I'm a pretty average drummer and would probably have issues implementing this technique. I know my limits haha

    • @Chadfleanthony
      @Chadfleanthony 4 года назад

      It sounds pretty cool when you use hit it on 2 of the 4/4 half-time beat. Try hitting it with the snare as well (rim shot optional). Hit the snare again on 4 and resume the groove.

  • @nickavenoso7851
    @nickavenoso7851 3 года назад +7

    What I’ve always loved about drummers like Todd, Neil (RIP), etc, is that their solo’s are not about showing technique, there about taking you on a musical journey. Great solo, Todd!!!

  • @sauerbone5208
    @sauerbone5208 4 года назад +24

    Watching this again after several months. Todd's skills are so deep and precise. Keeping the high-hat going on the upbeats while hammering out poly-rhythmic, flam-laden Tom Tom patterns with monster fills in between is master level drumming.

    • @bigpopakap
      @bigpopakap Год назад +2

      Seriously! It was an impressive drum solo even without that constant hi hat. That he kept the hi hat going flawlessly the whole time, subtly altering the pattern to match the energy, was the cherry on top. Truly amazing

  • @tylerbailey9329

  • @shanebrown1935
    @shanebrown1935 7 лет назад +640

    I love this drum solos because it is musical. Solos that seem to just ramble on. Like the drumer is trying to hit all the drums as fast as he can gets boring.

    • @kleinefreiheit2807
      @kleinefreiheit2807 7 лет назад +9

      shane brown very very musical, I liked it pretty much

    • @cerberusthall9151
      @cerberusthall9151 7 лет назад +16

      Seriously, when I heard him talking about how he liked his toms and cymbals to have their own notes, I couldn't believe how much sense it made. Like really selecting his crashes based on their respective pitches. Of course, it's not applicable to all genres of music, but for a solo it's exceptional.

    • @WhelanDrums
      @WhelanDrums 7 лет назад +8

      shane I'm right with you on that. He truly does tell a story and his feel and fluency is absolutely outstanding. Well said buddy 🙏

      Yes! Musical! Simon Phillips and Neil Peart are also excellent soloists. A great solo is like a dialog, not just hitting everything as fast as you can.

  • @buddyrichable1
    @buddyrichable1 5 лет назад +5

    Respect for Todd just went up a few notches. A solo with a theme and driving pulse that pulls you in until you’re dancing in your seat, not just a bunch of fancy licks strung together incoherently. Well done.

  • @jhamler1
    @jhamler1 4 года назад +1

    Quite possibly the besteset drum solo I've ever heard. Why? Because in and of itself it's a song kinda/sorta. Not to mention the sheer badassery of Todd's movements.

  • @jhamler1
    @jhamler1 3 года назад +5

    The bestest thing about this solo is that it's only four minutes long. Bonham and Peart would go on and on for twenty minutes. Sucherman gets it.

  • @punacunningham9151
    @punacunningham9151 5 лет назад +8
