This is the man who took a Zappa composition he had never seen before, sight-read it, and even managed to eat a piece of sushi whilst turning to the next page. ALL WITHOUT MISSING A SINGLE BEAT ON ONE OF FRANK ZAPPA’S MOST DIFFICULT COMPOSITIONS. Absolutely incredible.
Dude this been playing for years. He's been playing longer than all of us combined and look at that big ass smile on his face when he gets the beat going
One of the best, however the only real drummer that could be considered the best ever is buddy rich, and that’s only if you HAD to name a drummer as the best ever, because it’s subjective.
I was fortunate enough see my man Vinnie playing the soul cages tour with sting back in the early 90s. He is such a badass! Im So thankful for growing up when I did because I was so fortunate to see these living legends live. Manu, omar, Chad, joe, louie karl, bonzo, stewart, neil buddy, max. Gadson, perdie etc... Drummers of the world, I Salute you?
When I finally realized he was on Mount Rushmore of drummers if not the absolute GOAT was when we were looking back at one of the crossroads concerts. He played a ridiculous set with John McLaughlin, and then for his second appearance he finished up his night with the 🐐 Jeff Beck. If that's not some sort of surreal evening for anyone I don't know what is
Here’s the thing: It sounds like Vinnie could beat Rob Gronkowski in an arm wrestling match. I know he probably couldn’t, but that’s how his drums sound anyway.
It's probably impossible to be a drummer and not appreciate his touch. Everything he does is just tasty.
Yes So true Vin is a drumming master
Now folks, this is what a pro looks like. Decades of hard work
🤟
He make it look so easy, if someone knows all the tricks that is Vinnie
This is a Legendary drummer who's played with the very best top music bands/ artists past and present, including weather report and Jeff Beck
@@billneath3273 Not Weather Report
Not just a pro….a master!

Sushi just lifts you to that next level
I was lucky enough to have this national treasure play drums on my record. So. Freaking. Good.
Awesome
Way to name drop
Now I wanna hear your record.
A true Master !!! In my eyes, the greatest drummer of all times
One of the all-time greatest drummers. Been on more studio and live recordings than one can count.
Dude this been playing for years. He's been playing longer than all of us combined and look at that big ass smile on his face when he gets the beat going
Can’t watch Vinnie without grinning ear to ear. The best to ever do it in my opinion.
Had to listen to this 3 times. So pleasing to the ear! Thanks
One of my all time favorite drummers, he plays drums like it’s a classical guitar
Fluid as water and smooth as silk. He never...ever sounds like he's rushing...even minutely. Just such good pocket and beautiful feel...always.
BRAVO, Vinnie!! Absolutely love your Drumming, man...!!
I Love this Man's Drumming Technique. So Masterful on the Skin's.
He's on a different planet. His phrasing with grooves and fills is always fresh and surprising but never at the expense of the music.
Best drummer ever. Period.
You may be right
One of the best, however the only real drummer that could be considered the best ever is buddy rich, and that’s only if you HAD to name a drummer as the best ever, because it’s subjective.
Not even close. Thomas lang would annihilate him just with his feet.
Ps. It's FULL STOP. Girls have periods.
The thing is Vinnie can play everything Buddy could, but Buddy could not play everything Vinnie can. @@PSNsveglia69
@@PSNsveglia69this guy has buddy’s chops and speed plus a billion other things
That was totally amazing, so fast and so tight, awesome to listen to!!!
So in the groove thick! Awesome Vinnie! 👍🥁👍💯DC
Absolute beast. One of the GOATS
One of my favorites. Always will be. Man those Paistes sound sweet. The hats look like 15"s.
Vinie Colaiuta, el mejor baterista del mundo!!! No tiene comparación es único en el planeta...
So titillated that he's on this album with Greg and Nathan. What a power group 😊😊😊
Dude is oozing in rhythm. Mad respect.
He is incredible. HisGretsch drums sound beautiful. Any drummer that played w/ Zappa was awesome 👌
Looks like an older Danny Carrey
Flattering for Carrey...
My thoughts, Cody. Danny is on the same level Roger, don't you dare to say Danny is a less drummer. Both are exceptionally good drummers.
@@EXTRA300s Colaiuta was mind bending monster long before Danny appeared on the scene. That should count for some advantage.
Incredible. Chops galore & effortless. Amazing!
I could hear this on loop eternally.
So powerful. Best drummer in the world
That bass drum... Amazing vinnie
and the huge sounding little snare
Insanely beautiful... what a feeling !!!
in each second there is some extraordinary thing ... incredible ...
I know right... he’s ..... really good....
Seems like a killer tune for that kinda drum part! My favorite tracks of his are anything off Sting’s 10 Summoners Tales and I’m Tweeked
my forever Hero ❤

Kickass and take names brother. Sure miss hanging with you❤️
Always love me some Vinnie
Thanks for sharing!
Welcome!!!
Great kit, great playing.
He play like this since he is young. Vinnie is a legend.
When Vincent Deals The Cards He Don't Fuck Around
My favorite drummer 🙌🏻 down!
How many people noticed the bass drum move every time he hit the 1 of the groove. James Brown is smiling!!
I thought that was my imagination!
One of my best students !!! 😆
Zappa called him the Italian Steve Gadd
quite the compliment, and very appropo!
and he was right!!
Zappa’s 555 w vinnie is the best drumming in history imo
i my opinion vinnie is superior!
Well Steve Gadd is italian too
Vinnie is the poster child for grooving and ripping hot licks at the same time. Awesome
Crazy thing he played on MEGADETHS album The System has Failed! Kick the Chair
That's insane man, I didn't know that.
@@blackwizards1692 Get your hands on it. It’s out of this world!
Thee Best drummer ever!!! Liked him ever since he performed with FZ and the Mothers of Invention,No Limits with this guy!!@
Grande maestro vini
Cool stuff - thanks.
HEY Steve! Do you have any info on this Studio take? Or does "tradicional grip" have any?
@@alejandrodrums3464 it's from latest studio album of Lari Basilio...
Thanks for the comment @Steve Holmes !! I'm big fun of your playing and youtube channel!
I know you can do it to
Yes 👍music touches my heart and soul 🎶💕🎸
His playing with Jeff Beck and Tal Wilkenfeld at Ronnie Scott’s is amazing
Sei sempre bravissimo. Grande.
Amazing! I saw him play LIVE in Pittsburgh with Frank Zappa in 1980!
Awesome. Just great.
That's excellent Vinnie. Nice groove.
Soooo good. 🧡🐳
Some kickass grooves!🤘🤘🤘
Браво ❤😊
Simply the best!
68 years old and still the best
Proof that double bass works in any genre

If ya wanna be the best. Dedications what you need

Que gran baterista....
Best drumming I've ever seen
Drum King 🤘🏼
Caraaaaamba! Fantastic!
Absolute boss
His first professional record was Frank Zappa's Joe's Garage ....amazing
Here’s the thing: It sounds like Vinnie could beat Rob Gronkowski in an arm wrestling match. I know he probably couldn’t, but that’s how his drums sound anyway.
Un Super.
Great performance.
Finally, a real pro we all know and respect.
Exellent sound
I thought that‘s danny carey at first sight 😅
Guys like Thomas Lang are gifted and all.....but there's only one Vinnie C. Absolute prodigy musician.
Grandioso
Esto es batero!!!!! Ijolee se siente la disciplina musical que tiene el man!!!
Vinnnnnie!!!! The best......
Awesome
He's an extra-terrestrial...
No earthling is that good..!
Whooo-boy - hasn’t lost a thing, has he? I saw him with Frank Zappa in 1979, pretty much sounding like this except now the groove is so deep.
WOW NICE!!😃👌
