Moby Dick, John Bonham, *youtube, etc.

Toad, GInger Baker, *no clue where to find it

And any Buddy Rich solo usually blows me away!

Well, let's see. There's the 19-minute bootleg I have of a Vinnie Colaiuta clinic in which at one point he plays STRONG sextuplets with his left hand to a swing ride. It's 19 minutes of drum porn. The only place I know where it exists is on my Mac, which is currently in need of a new power cord. I'll try to post it when I get my Mac powered up again.

I also love the drum battle between Gadd, Weckl, and Vinnie. That's actually on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gekqb0FWSPc

Perhaps the most beautiful playing I've heard is Elvin Jones on Coltrane's A Love Supreme, a standard jazz album that should be in every drummer's CD collection.

Shrieve's Woodstock solo was agreeably good.
I like Graham Lear's Solo from the Santana - Moonflower - Head, Hands and Feet. Also from that same album was Jepito Areas on Timbalero amazing phrashing that guy has matched with strong raw chops.

2. Joey Heredia - On the Frank Gambale LIVE cd.

3. All those Buddy Rich solo's that old man blows past most everyone on my list.

4. OF course Vigil needs mentioning.

So many come to mind....alot of drummers have something unique to share.

Favorite three drum solos:

1. Clash of the titans- Weckl, Colaiuta, and Gadd

2. Billy Martin- Latin Shuffle

3. Mitch Mitchell- If 6 was 9 (It's short, but it rules)

I don't know if that's exact, but it's the first three that I thought of, and do truly love.

Click to expand...
You may want to look at some other drummers. Like his influences. He had influences.. shocking isn't it? Tony Royster Jr.'s solo when he was 12 years old destroys anything Joey has done. Also... it is spelled Jordison.

Everyone... look up on youtube (if you haven't seen it) Tony Royster Jr 12 year old drum solo YOU WILL BE AMAZED.

My 3 favorites are of drummers playing together. I prefer not to call them battles :)

Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Steve Gadd
Ed Shaughnessy, Buddy Rich
Charly Antolini, Pete York, Huub Janssen

Easily the 3 best in my book. I can watch these over and over and over for hours. I have them posted on myspace, click my sig to watch them. I think they are all posted at drummerworld too.
