I think it's hilarious when the people that give the most ridiculous comments are the ones that have absolutely no videos on RUclips or aren't even known... Besides the fact, this is a great video with awesome musicians!
Man! SOLID PLAYIN! Great solo! Mano duro! 💯
Hey guys, I am Cubano, I grew up in the Bronx with Puertorriquenos, tuve buenisimos amigos. No devemos ponernos en estas cisas de que si uno es mejor. La vida es muy corta y muchas veces cuando menos lo esperamos se nos corta de verda. Este video es bueno y constructivo, vamos a darle las gracias y divertirnos o aprender.
Yes. This is what I love about Latin music. It’s tasteful, it’s thoughtful, it has passion, it has structure and each instrument has its turn to speak while the others give him the space and support him. Space in solos is more powerful than filling up the space. It’s like a wise man that speaks only a few words, everyone listens. No one is interested in someone that talks too much.
Eric, thank you and yes, this video has helped me so much! Gracias!
Beautiful, artful and informative. There is no room for criticism here. These musicians #1 "swing" hard, they are steeped in tradition. I could only hope to learn what they already know. Thanks Eric!
Eric you hit the nail on the head hermano
At the end of the day Eric velez is getting paid for his talent and craft , so he must be doing something right . Familia that's the problem with our people we want to limit each other according to our perspectives . Progress beats staying in a box !! Very good video Bro
OMG!! wow i did not expect that first musical piece
Wao that’s amazing, performing with great brothers like Jeffrey “jazzy” & Marcos Lopez. Congrats Erick
Eric encompasses the best of both worlds! Tasty chops, nicely spaced out in contrast a "el guajeo" del piano, and beautiful phasing throughout his execution. But, he also has the skill set to hang with the contemporary, metrayadora (machine gun) style done today! Excellente maestro! Ache pa ti!
I totally dig all the space in between. It doesn't always have to be a chops fest. I usually struggle with my solos because i always try to find a good balance between the chops and just telling a clear tasteful story. This video actually helps me a lot in terms of the phrasing within the solo. Thanks guys!
Che meraviglia grazie maestro...buone cose ❤
How could you not like this.. it's beautiful
Sooo good! Thanks Cuz.
You have good taste Steve! A pleasure to share.
Buen video !! Para el amigo que respondió a un comentario porque el bongosero está tocando LP’s y dijo: because Toca sucks! Well my friend open your eyes a bit more y Eric está tocando Toca congas y suenan sabroso!! ... no es el caballo sino el jinete que lo monta papá, hay sabor aquí !
Great musicians... I hate it when incoherent people give opinion's.... All three are outstanding musicians and have great understanding of what there doing ....
Mr Velez with Johnny Almendra on drums in the Willie Colon orchestra, the best I never seen.
Excellent! I've been playing for years but even this video helped me. Very well articulated! Bravo! Thank you Eric
Who is this William guy!? Dude them cats you see in the video are awesome! Nicely done my dudes!! Un Abrazo!!! :)
Gracias Eric por el video excelente hermano saludos desde el Perú, algo se aprende día a día
El timbalero muy bueno. Excelente video...
Very nice, Eric! I admire your sound. I see you get a lot of wrist movement in your technique which creates ridiculously good open tones and slaps. Thank you sir for sharing this video with us. Baya!
Excellent video, just what I was looking for. "Calladito se ve más bonito". Keep it simple and it'll be sooo much better
chinowilliams .....less is more!
Gran sabor!!! Admiración desde argentina!!!
Excellent job guys...
Awesome video great congero !!!
Awsome bro. Please upload more vids like this!
Saludo Eric recuerdos de La Elite de Isidro Infante ,,,jJulio de Marcas Records
nice explained simply. thanks eric.
Great job gents! Nice tutorial.
It's soo good.. I'm trying to learn something.. For me soo useful
FANTASTICO !!!! QUE BUENO Q ES ERIC VELEZ
Eric says "talking with the drum." That used to happen a whole lot with some of the old school drummers - Eladio Perez, Ray Barretto, & Papo Pepin just to name a few. Since Gio introduced the world to rudiments and speed, the solos I see some big name congueros doing today are more technical and have less soul than the simple solo Eric gave in this video.
When Gio is soloing in a salsa setting, he rarely uses rudiments. Take a lesson from the greats, sometimes less is truly more. Keep banging!
It doesn't have to be one or the other. If you've got the skill set, you can blend the technical with a whole lot of "SOUL"
It’s all in the ear, there are no rules to playing these instruments! It’s all up to each individuals style!
excellant video on solos
great job guys on the video....
awesome! thanks for sharing
i really love the traditional style of soloing because it accents the playing of the other musicians and the dancers can rock to it,rudiments are great but in certain situations and settings,ps the comments william perez made were totally off the wall, those are excellent musicians with velez.
Thank you! it was really helpful!
Bravo Eric. Well explained. Old salsa gorda for ever.
Que bola! Saludos desde Portland, OR! Is there anyway I can buy samples of what Hector is playing? I would like to use those montunos to record my own percussion over them. Please let me know! Gracias

Hello im EDDIE VELEZ TOO
Always for to dance . . .
👍
Very nice, but needs 10 extra cowbells, 6 bagpipes, 20 triangles, 40 Quito's, and 12 kettle drums! 🤣👍🏼
yo me pregunto si hacen estos videos en ingles porque los gringos están interesados en aprender la música latina?
o porque no quieren que los latinos aprendan estos secretos....
que alguien me explique!!!!
+Elias Gonzalez eric es newyork rican yo creeo que el espanol de el es su segunda lengua y tal ves se le ace mas facil en ingles, saludos.

congratulation
@@juanpinales6162 ahhahah Congratulaton--on da hatin'
You know nothing about music . Idiot
Very good video for those who want to learn ... in the video is not discussed if it is Cuba or not ... because common sense a musician will never say that this rhythm is not Cuban .... of course Cuba is the cradle of this rhythm and many more ... we have to thank Cuba for all those rhythms that have brought so much joy to all of us ... it's not about discussing but about enjoying being Puerto Riqueño and we have to recognize what It is known and out of ignorance many argue Viva cuba the cradle of our music and to learn you have to go to Cuba where so many kisses I have had to go .... Puerto Rico should learn from Cuba to make free music education at all levels. .. that is why Cuba believes so much because there is a great art school a musician in Cuba learns in the street but has the privilege of becoming a professional in an art school ... that begins at 9 years of age and ends in the adultes ...... Cuba and Puerto Rico are a bird of two wings ... When I go to Cuba m I feel at home. that is, do not argue and appreciate that we are all brothers.
Muy buen vídeo para los que quieran aprender... en el vídeo no se discute si es Cuba o no... porque por sentido común un músico nunca va a decir que este ritmo no es Cubano.... por supuesto que cuba es la Cuna de este ritmo y de muchos mas... les tenemos que agradecer a Cuba todos esos ritmos que tanta alegría nos ha traído a todos.... no se trata de discutir sino de disfrutar soy Puerto Riqueño y hay que reconocer lo que se sabe y por desconocimiento muchos discuten Viva cuba la cuna de nuestra música y para aprender hay que ir a cuba donde tantas beses he tenido que ir.... Puerto Rico debería aprender de Cuba en hacer gratis la educación musical en todos los niveles... por eso cuba crea tanto por que hay una gran escuela de arte un músico en cuba aprende en la calle pero tiene el privilegio de hacerse profesional en una escuela de arte.... que se empieza desde los 9 años de edad y termina en la adultes...... Cuba y Puerto Rico son un ave de dos alas... Cuando voy a Cuba me siento como en casa. es decir no discutan y aprecien que todos somos hermanos.
