That undeniable Pat Torpey snare 'crack'. You know it is him when you hear it. It's sad he is gone. But damn, we were blessed to have witnessed such a phenomenal drummer in this lifetime. RIP Pat. Your music lives on and in our hearts, you will be.

[@DrumsetArtistry]

Well said.

[@bumzigan]

Pat was a fantastic drummer and a super humble and approachable guy. He didn't consider himself a technical drummer, but obviously he had great chops and skill and his execution is flawless. Mr Big was an a band of virtuosos who unfortunately had most of their recognition linked to radio friendly tunes that did not showcase their musical skills, The loss of Pat so young was very sad.

[@qwertyzxcv123]

Pat Torpey once said that he played the drums just so he could look cool to his future grandchildren. He wants his grandchildren to tell stories about how cool their grandpa was. Sigh... We miss you, Pat!

[@ironblud]

He was a cool cat for sure.

[@rlh686]

Well put together drum solo. Pat was extremely talented and unfortunately underrated. Love watching him play. Gone too soon. Great analogy of the solo.

[@kevbonett]

One of my all time fave drummers. Impeccable groove. Impeccable technique. Awesome power and dynamics.

[@jimhill9986]

Nobody can compare with Pat Torpey. That video. Incredible control and technique and so exciting and musical. I'm doubtful if any of the greats that we hear about all the time could surpass that. World class stuff.

[@Stuy_B]

All about preference and for me pat and ian paice are two of the best incredible techniques

[@johnramsey2480]

Truly just an absolute masterful musician and great man. Loved and greatly missed!! R.I.P. PAT TORPEY!!!

[@gcrichards1]

Sadly no longer with us but great player, good feel and groove.

Super solid DRUMMER!!! Fantastic solo

Pat is one of my favorites!!!!

[@timothymckenna1702]

Pat was one fantastic drummer!

[@MrFchank]

Watching alot of your critiques. When will we get a video of you playing??

[@emanuelelelesodi8408]

hi teacher, i am the one who in your video, told you that it was gene krupa who played on the double bass strings, and this made me jump because for me krupa is the basic, but it may happen that one forgets it, but not a drum master.Instead then I followed you in your '' reactions video '' and in your works and I engaged a great respect for you as a musician and as a man, very nice your video on pat torpey.

[@jamiebland2981]

Never heard of him before, but wow!!!

[@marttinieminen8479]

Very good pat torpey

[@alessiomanueddu1330]

Super , thanks Garey

[@DavidLeBlanc]

That was fun to watch and listen to. He did more than just cram in as many notes as possible in a given period. Cool, interesting grooves and I really like the Latin flavor on one section. Good selection to analyze, Garey.

[@csfe00]

Wow! I had no idea he was this great. RIP Pat.

[@varelaambrizaldo932]

Please react to Fito de la Parra of Canned Heat!!!!!!!

[@alexg959]

I'd be very curious to get your take on some modern drummers who may be out of your wheelhouse genre-wise. Some really talented guys and would bring some fresh eyes to your channel. You've checked out Matt Garstka (always a great choice) bit try Chris Turner, Blake Richardson, Thomas Pridgen, Like Holland, Thomas Haake.

[@DrumsetArtistry]

Thanks for the suggestions. Please send me some of your favorite links :-)

Finally, Pat Torpey!! You can watch His solo at Back to Budokan Tour. Nice solo tho.

[@leeharper7204]

Difficult job breaking it down , best to just watch and admire

[@jeremyplumley9165]

As good a singer as we was drummer. Truly a talent for the ages. What a painful loss for anyone who ever heard and saw him perform. 🙏

[@agtakaitilak645]

pat torpey and dave abruzzese my favorite drummers they are beast!

[@andrewkarp5067]

Pat was an ass kicking, propulsive drummer, a great singer and a sweet guy. A big loss to the drum community.

[@melissawright1979]

Pat Torpey was an incredible musician and absolutely gorgeous. I was born too late (1987). If I was at least 10 years older, I would have had posters of of this man plastered all over my walls. Hope you're resting peacefully Pat X X

[@iternityhuman1782]

Extremely talented chops for days A+

[@Gevoltful]

Oh ! Thank you for this one, Mr.Big can't go wrong with line-up , but never saw him doing such a solid soloin' .

[@jagsjag5849]

That was enjoyable. Creative. Talented. Thank you!

[@stevenlaux741]

Underrated and gone too soon. Always enjoyed listening to Pat.

[@mttgilmore5]

He will be missed... Very telented

[@danlc95]

He had such a tight and smooth groove. Fun and adventurous fills. Incredible soloing. I LOVED his drum sound on the Lean Into It CD. If I had to guess, it was Tama Artstar II with Remo Clear Ambassadors. Just so crisp...

[@lifeschool]

Hi Garey. Its a shame the views have gone down recently, I was wondering if you could give fans a Christmas bonus? I was thinking that guy from Pantera recently released a new drum solo, which would be popular to comment on. Plus you know Buddy Rich is very popular - how about that duelling drum solo video? Other popular drummers include Dave Grohl, Chad Smith, Peter Criss - or wild cards like Aric Improta. Who is the heaviest drummer of all time? You could host a poll? What is the syncopated style? And why has Gene Kruper got it? All these questions and more ...

[@DrumsetArtistry]

Thanks for the Dave Grohl suggestions. Please send me a link to the Pantera drum solo you mentioned. Didn't know my numbers went down. I never look at that stuff :-) Not into the other ideas, though they are good ones. Thanks for your input. Cheers :-)

[@jeffkazee4342]

Really miss Pat! He was a phenomenal player and a good singer as well. RIP brother 🙏

@@DrumsetArtistry Didn't expect you to reply ;). Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKLap2WcatJjrq8. To me this is pure genius and a master piece of how to perfectly accentuate a melody using percussion. Rhythm, melody and harmony combined into a melting pot of fusion jazz. His techniques are flawless and inspiring to me. Probably an easier one to do a "Drum Teacher Reacts" video would be: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHfTmXuQp7ypm8k.
