ma cosa ne sapeva il giovane Morandi di jazz?

maybe you're not a drummer? or a musician?

You don’t know there names either. ?

Wow! Very cool info 🤓 thanks for sharing

E come non dimenticare l'eccentrico Buddy Rich... Sonny Payne che con le bacchette sembrava un giocoliere... Rufus Speedy Jones che portava l'Orchestra di Count Basie al decollo... Jo Jones... il raffinato Sam Woodyard di Duke Ellington e gli ultimi che ci hanno lasciato: Butch Miles e Duffy Jackson che con la mole di Bud Spencer si muoveva alla batteria come fosse un fuscello... erano incredibilmente bravi! Se non dei geni!

Zildjian

@@hollywood-drums what kind of zildjian? I was looking at getting a Hollywood meazzi tronic president drumset with the amp and cases in great shape but its $4000. Do they sound really good? Hard to tell from videos besides max roachs

@@matthewmore6893 don't know what kind of zildjian in 1968. I don't like talking about supposed values of hollywood drums, anyway discontinuous quality

Those look like A Zildjian: I can't see any hammering on the bottom. But it's tough to say for sure. They could also have been borrowed or loaned for the show, though, in which case they could be UFIP or Paiste, though unlikely.

Sound like Zildjian. Very high presence. Intense clarity.

@@federiconardi3134 so bene come funzionavano le Tronic. Trigger è un po' improprio dal punto di vista tecnico, ma concettualmente giusto. Le Tronic erano cmq batterie elettroniche (sai cosa distingue elettrico da elettronico?). E al 90 % Roach non le ha mai suonate in un disco

thanks god you told me ;)

@@hollywood-drums the man. And you knew it

I don't speak or write Italian, but I understand your comment (I studied French and Latin at school decades ago. Maybe I'll take Italian courses when I retire. I consider it a very lovely language). I don't know if anyone can be called the best or the most complete. I admire Joe Morello, Elvin Jones - or f.i. Terry Lyne Carrington, Vinnie Colaiuta or Brian Blade. But Max was always my favorite drummer, for whatever reason. I liked his strength, his determination, his musicality, his lyrical style. And his political convictions in the fight for equality. Many times I sang his song 'Mendacity' to myself after listening to politicians or business bosses. I saw him live in Germany four times. Each time it was an enlightenment. I saw him chatting happily with a big band drummer who was proud to play alongside with him. I've seen him getting enraged when a minor jazzman's name was written larger than his on a poster simply because 'Max Roach Double Quartet' was such a long name and they chose smaller letters to make it fit, or when his trumpeter slightly missed the cue. These were different aspects of his passionate personality. And he was truly able to convey the passion for rhythm and for music in general to his audience like no other.
