For my money, the best drummer in Rock music history.
One of, for sure
Thomas Lang
One of the more technically adept. Took Classical Percussion Lessons from the Royal Hall in the Early years of ELP and took lessons from a couple really good UK Jazz drummers as a squirt.
You would lose your money. Stewart Copeland, Thomas Lang, Terry Bozzio, Vinnie Colaiuta, Neil Peart, John Bonham, are all 100 miles ahead.....
In rock, yes.. In overall skill, the only two you mentioned that surpass him are Vinnie and Terry.
The Bruce Lee of Drummers. Carl Palmer.
Carl Palmer is one of the best drummers of all time. Wow.
The man has always been an amazing drummer! I especially like his snare work!! And, he is still at it, and relevant in 2023!!!!!
👍🥁👍
"Have you ever heard of Carl Palmer?"
"Who?"
"Have you ever heard of Tommy Lee?"
"Oh yeah. He's a totally AWESOME drummer."
And that is why the world sucks.
Y E P
Boo hoo
Exactly
Yeh music has gone to shit!! Look up (THRESHOLD Pilot in the sky of dreams). Now try to explain to me why that band hasnt made it big? CHEERS!
Well I´m happy that I actually have good taste! :) and that I’m enlightened…
One of the greatest of all time
GRANDMASTER. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer: Brain Salad Surgery Karn Evil 9 / 1st, 2nd and 3rd Impressions.
Absolute Mastery at age 23. Accuracy, power, speed, finesse AND Musicality.
The Mount Everest of Progressive Rock in the 1970's. Carl Palmer is a living Legend.
There are not enough superlatives to describe just how good this is. Nuff said.
Carl Palmer displays why he is one of the best.
One man, one snare drum, two sticks and heaps of technique. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr Carl Palmer performing the ultimate solo. RIP Keith and Greg.
I've been totally snared..thank you Mr. Palmer
I first saw ELP in '72 and again in '74, what a trio of masters
What a great time to see them in their young hungry full of energy years what an experience that must have been. I was still just 10 & 12 and hadn't been exposed to them until 14 or 15 and still a few years from my first concert but that was a magical time for all music and they were such a powerful force of masterful brilliance. I'm certain it was beyond incredible! I didn't get to see them until the early 90's totally unexpected and unplanned and it will always be one of my top 3 concerts ever. I will forever be grateful I got to experience ELP live. Keith and Greg rest peacefully and thanks for the music 👍
I have been praising this guy for 35 years and always with a shrug from my friends...all I can say now is - Wtach this, then bite me!
lol yep
Unreal!!!!!!!!!!!!! There aren't too many people that have played the instrument that play it with THAT FINESS!!!
Tremendous hand technique. Love the traditional grip, and one of the all-time great innovators
Wow this guy should be in a band. What a lucky band that would be.
OOOooooooooh what a lucky baaaaaaaaaaaaaaand
it was
Wtf!! Lololololo idiot Carl Palmer was the Emerson Lake & Palmer drummer. That guy is incredible.
Pablo Contreras r/wooosh
@@pablocontreras3120 LOL you missed the joke.
He's in my favourite band ( ; ^ ; )
carl palmer best drummer in the world. he's in his 70's and he can still kick azz.
LOve this man! Carl thank you god bless you1
Carl and Neil are the best of all time! PERIOD!!!!
Couldn't agree more!!
@@Matty0923 the best the worlds ever gave us . R.I.P Neil
@@jessecorona3076 So true brother
Amen brother!
This is why Buddy considered Carl Palmer to be among his most admired rock drummers.
One can see why Buddy liked watching Carl. The only rock drummer I have seen who embodies the rich, fluid, technically perfect style of the master, though in a prog/rock genre, of course. His solos, along with those of Neil Peart are things of beauty and wonders to behold. Carl is certainly among those, like Neil, who sit on the apex of the rock percussion world.
About Carl Buddy said he had never seen such technique and speed
Carl absolutely, Peart nah ... never impressed me.
@@bobg4657 … how?
Carl was a master technician, blazing speed. Neil was creative and versatile.
don't go overboard. Buddy liked him because he dated his daughter, and was a rock drummer with traditional grip. Carl is less than average. I don't care who he played with. He can't keep time, and is the Lars of his day.
Carl Palmer is one of the greatest of all time.
One of the best drummers of all time
As usual, totally friggin' incredible. Carl is the best of the best.
This poor man only has one drum can you imagine how good he'd be with a whole kit 😸
check out ELP Tank live 1977, he's fucking amazing with a whole kit
Believe me he Smokes!
@@jamesd.wheeler6190 hey thanks for the comment now I get to watch this again 👍
@@mattekudasai8249 ruclips.net/video/P19BpRijJD4/видео.html
And his solo on Karn Evil 9 1st Impression on the California Jam Vid.
I'd never heard of Carl palmer... I'll never forget Carl palmer!
ranked # 1 drummer in the world by modern drummer magazine
I watch Tommy Lee solos and then go to my own kit and play pretty much all of it. Same with the Appice brothers and Cozy Powell. I watch Ian Paice solos and Tommy Aldridge solos, then go to my own kit and can play most of it. I watch this solo, then go to my own kit and think, "You know, I could make a set of bookshelves out of that."
Spoken by a person who hasnt spent enough time trying to learn percussion .
If youre not over 65 atleast , keep learning ! 🙄
Incredible flam rudiments along with everything else he played on the snare. Great chops, very impressive!
Carl Palmer ist einer der welt besten Schlagzeuger.
CARL PALMER CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED IN MY MIND DEFO TOP 5 DRUMMERS EVER. 🇮🇲👍🇮🇲
The best drummer EVER
This guy can say more with 2 sticks and a snare than 95% of the drummers in Rock behind a full kit over the last 30 yrs..
Yup, Palmer, Bonzo, Paice, Densmore, Baker and Powell crush in every note! 💖💖
@@RSTI191 Ah yeah haha
I agree, I saw Carl perform with Asia and it was, the best drum solo ever!!!!!
@@robertbaker5156
I saw him late 70's twice in ELP.
The man is a machine.
Rumor still has it, Palmer was one of the original Terminator 800 series prototypes.
Somehow he ended up with drumsticks in his hands.
The rest is history.
@@RSTI191 he is a machine, when I listen to the Barbarian I can’t get over how intense his drumming is!!!
One of the most underrated drummers of all time.
He was never underrated. You and 55 others don't know what you're talking about.
I've never heard his name mentioned with the likes of Bonham or Moon.@@mikekelly9851
Just breathtaking
Carl Palmer the Greatest
THE BEST of The Best drummers of history
I was at a ELP concert in MPLS. in the mis 90s and Carl did a solo that was so overwhelming that it had people in tears...yes you heard right, in tears. One person in the crowd removed his shirt and wept into it I have seen all the greats over my 50 years but nothing like him...wow. The greatest.
I realize this is an old post but I was at that concert also and it remains one of the best memories of my life. As a musician I've always considered Palmer one of the best ever, but that night blew me away. When they did "Pirates" without the orchestra I was bracing for disappointment since that is such a great arrangement. Suddenly I could hear the string section playing...... it was Carl playing the violin parts on the drums. The man is a genius
That's incredible.
....more done on a simple snare than many would do with an enormous kit, that's the signpost of a virtuoso.
I'll never forget the first time I heard and saw Carl Palmer. It was the Brain Salad Surgery tour. They opened with Hoedown. My jaw dropped as Emerson tore into his part. Then seconds later when Carl rolled into his groove, my amazement doubled. The burst of energy emanating from the stage gripped my whole body. I'd never witnessed such power before.
Mr. Palmer is a living drumming legend. The consummate artist. I’m so glad he’s out there touring and playing for audiences all over the world. I hope to see him play again soon. Buddy Rich is gone but we still have Carl Palmer! And thank God!
Carl has always been in my top 5 drummers for 50 yrs and I have been playing for 58!
Best of the best, no question about it!
Simply one of the greatest.
fucking boss...those elitists at Rolling Stones won't even put him on the top ten rock drummer list yet he's clearly better than all the people on it!
Best drummer I've ever seen including Neal Pert. Different drummers, But I've always found Carl Palmer to be unique and the first drummer I'd pay to see even if there was no other musicians there.
I'd have to agree, Peter. I can tell Carl was influenced by Buddy Rich!peter gaulin
I don't think Carl really cares...
You cannot compare anyone to Carl Palmer but Buddy Rich, and that is heresy in the drumming community. But it's true. I've studied both drummers for hundreds of hours each (CP really into the thousands) and they are very much alike. No one else comes close. So yeah, let's leave him out of the debate since nobody wants to be humiliated.
***** REALLY?
Not another Buddy Rich debate!
This always degenerates into 'two bald men fighting over a comb'.
the most underrated drummer of all time. half of drummers today wish they have half the talent of carl palmer. (sorry for my english)
And John Bonham is the greatest drummer ever haha, said by people that have never seen this man in action.
Rocky B Exactly, he was a fucking beast in ELP
Fuck Yeah he was already a beast in Atomic Rooster, even if Tarkus was the only song he Drummed on i would still praise the shit out of him. Not only that if Buddy Rich were alive actually Buddy was asked this question. Who was Buddy's favorite Drummer??? i think you know the answer
Rocky B And Buddy did throw praise easily.
right with you
Carl Palmer is the man I've seen him live
So glad I got some drum sticks signed by him!!
Best drummer to have ever lived IMO.
seeing him live is always a treat.🥁
The Best Rock and Roll Drummer of all time. Just listen to his interpretive style on Tarkus, it was pure genius.....Thank you Carl for many pleasant memories.
One snare and two sticks, and he can do more than 95% of drummers out there.
my god, he`s so phantastic
One of the best ever! I don't think any other drummer would have been able to keep up with Emerson note for note!
Best point made on here. It’s the insanity of Keith Emerson’s speed and imagination that required a drummer of this immense talent. Absolutely.
Loved em with ELP. He had that big drum set. Gong an that rope in his teeth too ring the bell. Frkn. badass.
Oh yes! His two and a half ton stainless kit! I saw ELP in Tucson, February 22nd, 1974, and got a couple of photos of the kit and Keith Emerson's Moog console before the show. The stage curtains were wide open for all to see. Carl is a true legend, for sure!
This guy and Simon Phillips are the two best I have seen live.
Then you should go and watch Peter Erskine, Omar Hakim or Marvin Smitty Smith.. they will really 'TWIST you melon'
have seen Erskine in videos with Weather Report, Omar with Sting......haven't seen SMITH, will check out. All are good. Just don't think Neil Peart is the absolute best, as awesome as he is
In truth there is no 'best drummer' some love Buddy Rich, others will love Papa Jo.
It's really down to who's playing speaks to you most.
I love Simon Phillips though..
Robert Dore You are wrong. There is a best drummer - that would be the one that is the only drummer to do the 17th prime number toccata - that would be Ginger. No other drummer has managed 13, and 19 appears unattainable.
This ART, not weight lifting...you're expressing an opinion and not a FACT.
Your statement is FACILE and your views Narrow..
Sorry but that's the way it is :-)
All of the guys we listen too a great players why can't you just enjoy them all without making a fool of yourself in front of the entire world?
Watching this gentleman play is a privilege!
My love and admiration Carl. Thank you for all that you have given. You and ELP are a part of my DNA always. I am heartbroken for the loss of Keith. Mark Phillips in Kansas City.
Watching this guy just reminds me of how much I miss Buddy Rich.
That's the best drum solo I've ever seen!
Welcome to the machine! Carl Palmer is the machine.
TO ME HE WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST.......END OF STORY
Oh, spectacular!! Carl is just something else! I've loved his work on Asia stuff for a long time. I saw a tutorial by him in like the late 90s or early 2000s and was just completely floored by his playing. I myself love Neil, but at the same time, can we please acknowledge Carl as equally sophisticated and technically wonderful?! Carl really can do so much and is so much fun to watch!
RIP Professor!!!!
Carl was a drumming hero of mine from 1973. He had all these classically trained percussive skills playing keyboard, chimes & timpani; but could also play awesome drumset. I sat right behind his rotating drum riser at the 1978 Nassau Colliseum, NY show and watched just how incredible he was. Awesome!
Still amazing An incredible drummer for an incredible band. My grandkids are discovering ELP and loving it
My favorite drummer since I was 9 years old. Please release this in the good ol' USA! I will buy 2!
Now that he's the last of ELP left, this video is oddly poignant
Eric: I realize exactly what you mean; but I believe that besides unforeseen circumstances, he has a few decades left in him due to his strenuous physical exercise (workout) regimen, combined with his nutritional intake in order to preserve his health perpetually. I bid him all of the best in his conquest for ultra-salubriousness.
I had an opportunity to see him earlier this summer. IT was quite a treat. He's still touring, so you should go see him play. He is just as amazing as when I first saw him 40 years ago.
I'm digging the Latin roots @eddyvideostar
Being the last one alive at least stops them from reuniting.
go away
GREAT Carl Palmer
Это видео надо показывать в школах !
I've been playing drums for over 50 years. I saw him live on the old California Jam shows on TV as a kid. He was cool, but his strange tempo changes bothered me later. After many years, I definitely admire his skills . Who else can pull off a snare drum solo with so much authority? He's the shit. Still is.
If God wanted to play drums, he'd ask Carl Palmer to teach him.
Funny you mention that, Carl took drum lessons from my neighbor, Roy Burns back in the early 1980's. I was just a kid...I listened to them play from the driveway. Carl is/was always trying to learn and improve...a true musician!
Even as a Christian, I appreciate that s comment 😊
I had to watch this 3 times before I could move on to a different video.
Wow! It’s a blur. Fabulous!
One of the most well oiled, self disciplined drummers around. This man _WORKS_ at taking care of himself, and his craft. Thanks You for sharing your amazing abilities Carl. :D
Stevo Reno Heck yea! l think he'll be around for a while. l sure had a crush on him when he was young. Especially with that long hair! Peter Gabriel, Wakeman and even Jackson Browne too. Anyway yea Carl is exceptional at his craft! :D
I've seen Carl play live. Simply put, he rules.
This Is MOST EXCELLENT!
Carl!! You are the Only One !! 👍👍💪💪
Carl Palmer must be a fan of Buddy Rich's drumming style.
Buddy Rich was his hero and he met him, too.
Buddy Rich was Neil's hero, too (RIP).
He said he prefered Joe Morello in an interview.
he's Buddy Rich son-in-law
There’s a great story about a young Carl staking out a hotel in London where BR was staying with the hopes of meeting his hero. Apparently, Buddy was taken with Carl and invited him to hang out. They ended up becoming pretty good friends after that.
Holy flurking schnit. Left handed trad grip. And a display of virtuosity like you don't see too often these days.
Yes I am old, I saw Carl when he was in the group , atomic rooster, and yes he was a great drummer even then, and he had long hair
always thinking, innovating, experimenting, inventing. you rule carl. cut me teeth on brain salad surgery. played that record over and over. your stick control then and now is unparalleled. i'm grateful, it's a honor.
CARL IS SIMPLY THE KING OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK!
The most greatest on drums...¡¡¡ YEAH...
I watch this every now and then and I'm amazed every single time. I've shown it to my children also and of course there minds are blown. Any human being in the world , even a Sherpa, would be blown away if they saw it. It's magic on a drum!
A Sensei & Legend. Really awesome. Thx Carl.
I Could Watch This Guy All Day!
I had the pleasure of meeting Carl years ago! He was a great guy, very personable!! He played a drumroll with his left hand only!!
That is the best i have ever seen !! I did not think it was possible,blown away
Show Off ....One of the Best
I've idolized Carl since my childhood. He made me want to learn rudiments! He made them cool for me :) Here's proof.
Dean Prescott
Right on right on. Love the paradiddles.
Carl, a snare and two stricks - perfection! Though I always loved the gongs, the fire bell and the revolving kit...
I've seen Buddy Rich, Neil Peart (as well as Kansas and A7X) and others in concert. I haven't seen Carl Palmer. I now feel incomplete! I just turned my drumsticks into kindling. :^)
How can anyone put a dislike to this
wow !!! that was like a heart surgeon...very technical and superb
Flippin unbelievable!!!! Holy crap - amazing!
Neil Peart - Great
Ian Paice - Amazing
Carl Palmer - GODLIKE
I'd say all 3 are GODLIKE but I'm not dissin' your estimation.
When I cross myself, I say "Emerson, Lake and Palmer"
Ya forgot BR the father of all drumming
Don't forget Bill Bruford and Stewart Copeland! But totally agreed about Carl Palmer!
@@alexjbennett1017 For me, the list would include Barrie Barlow.
Palmer and a snare drum, I clicked the thumbnail as fast as humanly possible
Thanks for posting this. Amazing hands.
My favorite drummer of all time.
I saw Carl in concert in early December. The guy is spellbinding. Simply put, one of the best EVER!
Carl is creating the most from the least and playing like his life depends upon it.
I've seen this clip 10 times and continue to be impressed by his skill.
Mother of drumming!
