Chick Corea Elektric Band / RUMBLE

[@DRUmBEaTTS]

This tune was released a couple months after I graduated from high school when I had absolutely no idea what I was going to do with my life. I started hearing it on the radio and was like “what was that?!?!” 37 years later and I’m still a professional drummer! Thanks Dave and Chick and the gang, you completely changed my life!

[@sandc411]

same story for me, but instead of weckl it was steve gadd...

So very true - they didn’t do that when I saw them (in ‘86 with original group Corea, Patitucci - Weckl - Henderson) ... but I would have thought it was awesome if they had!

[@simonperry8569]

I bet Weckl was glad he was behind the kit and didn't have to do the C-3PO having a stroke routine.

It's a great groove.

That's a great understatement.

[@juankelly1004ify]

My opinion... Chick Corea is one thee greatest musicians in modern history

[@Cartercentral]

One of greatest in all of history.

[@PeterBrown-mz4nv]

Mount Rushmore for sure.

[@timcolemandrums]

This is awesome! I've never seen Dave Weckl playing so aggressively as in the solo at the beginning. There was some serious passion in that!

[@nobodady1]

Chick Corea Electric Band is an 80's Metal band.

[@slapbassboy1]

What a strange yet captivating era of music. And seeing Chick Corea on a keytar.!! Priceless.

[@drewper73]

I bought the first Chick Corea Elektric Band release on cassette in the 10th grade, which would've been sometime in 1988. I kept seeing all of these ads in Modern Drummer with Dave Weckl in them. So I had to see what all the fuss was about. I've been a fan ever since. The original version of Rumble is just Corea, Pattitucci, and Weckl.

[@KONAMAN100]

The composition, the interplay, the timing, the musicianship. Different level. I watched this live at 3 venues in the UK, it was jaw dropping to see.

[@KONAMAN100]

@Will Morgan Cardiff, Manchester, London. 2 of them I think in the same week!

[@cpope3391]

It is amazing to me how most of you guys lend this critique of this band, when MOST of you musically cannot even tie their shoes...EVEN BACK THEN! Show some respect..

[@BasedRoots]

?

[@ronanmg]

Exactly

[@WarhawkBeyond2040]

Cheesy robotic on stage moves aside, this has got be one of the most hard hitting versions of Rumble i have ever heard from Chick Corea's Elektric Band and they're just absolutely on fire especially Dave Weckl 0:00 to 0:58 who brings so much power to the piece. Unbelievable performance.

[@denniswalker-rw1ed]

Then you try and do the cheesy moves sir I think you're jealous myself they tore it up period

[@slimyelow]

This CD inspired generations to come. Some of the very best jazz instrumentalists on the planet were born right here.

[@AJDOLDCHANNELARCHIVE]

One of my favourite compositions... love those runs and stabs

[@KONAMAN100]

A mulleted Dave Weckl is not to be under estimated. Quantum leap in jazz fusion by the CCEB, no question about it. Timing, interplay, stellar musicianship, creativity I mean how can anyone not be blown away.

[@sticktrik]

YES...! Weckl in his prime!....Love the energy and conviction in his playing!!

[@dadduorp]

"In his Prime"?! Have you heard him lately?

[@soulslaveone]

Weckl is even better now, at 61.

[@jimmy56boy]

High-tech in all aspects of this group... Absolutely an amazing collection of tremendous talent.. Tremendously organized And orchestrated by Chick Corea.....

[@BioStuff415]

[@joeday4293]

Every time Chick Corea playing this tune on his keytar while looking at the audience, he always looks like telling the audience a crazy story.

[@garymcaleer6112]

Every thumbs down is musically illiterate. This masterpiece of fusion takes Mahavishnu Orcestra to a whole new level of expertise.

[@danedmiston7734]

Yeah, I seen the robot act sometime around the very early 90's Back then it was more acceptable but today it looks very silly. That;s not why I listen to Chick and the guys for it's the AMAZING musicianship that's off the charts! A Corea fan since the early 1970's and musician since 74.

[@sonicplayg]

..just so freaking awesome.... I miss CC already.. knowing I will never get to see the CCEB again or another version of RTF :(... Rumble is like an updated awesome and gorgeous modern opening theme jam for the CCEB just as The Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy was to RTF.... RIP Chick Corea.🎼💕💕🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Absolutely. I describe it as a great "musical" performance ( mind-blowing really) from the era of visual "Grande Fromage" ! - Ah the 80's... everything was a Pepsi commercial.

[@audreybizmuth9315]

It used to have so much magic, all the electronics on the stage, Weckl and Patitucci keeping the groove as in a brand new Digital workstation. Those who did the real computing at that time will understand.

[@sanityinaseaofmadness7353]

Ha, this is great. It was always a better song live than it was on the album. Saw them play it a few times, but never on a large stage - which is apparently the only time they could get away with the cheesy robot stuff.

[@BillBrolse]

Weckl got more advanced and fluid later, but the youthful intensity here! Weckl at one of his many peaks.

[@johnnychannarong5484]

Frank Larssen what do you mean by fluid ? He was always fluid

[@phishu106]

nah, he got more self-conscious and hung up on technique, Gruber spoiled his natural vibe, compare Colaiuta and Weckl now, the former still manages to let himself go, taps into something primal in his playing when improvising, in comparison Weckl is overly controlled, back in the 80s he played more freely, he let go....

Alternately cheesy and brilliant. Didn't much care for the jive-ass robot stuff early on, but after that it gets pretty impressive, everyones playing their asses off. Favorite things are Eric's tasty countermelody lines, Frank's cool close voiced chordal interjections, Weckl and Patitucci of course and Chick simply being himself.

I can't believe any of you stopped to mention them doing that little robot dance at the beginning. Saying crap like "That's why people left the band", "C-3P0 having a stroke" (the 3P0 comment was funny, at least) but seriously how can you let that distract you or let it detract from the music? I would hardly have notice if there weren't so many whiners here. Embarrassed for them? I'm embarrassed for you. they had fun for like half a minute and then continued to have fun while focusing on playing.

Maybe when the lights get brighter, or if they get brighter, I'll be able to see a little better.
