Amazing drumming! So precise, dynamic and interesting!

I like Weckl's playing now as well, but the old Weckl before he changed his technique and approach had a more punchy sound that I still enjoy for it's precision, density and incisiveness (his new sound is more organic and less "digital").

Same with Vinnie. He was more rock and roll back in the day.

I totally agree. There’s something so compelling about his playing in this era,a really fun,aggressive edge to it.

I’m with you. I have a very unpopular/controversial take on this. Somewhere between youthful vitality and authentic delivery lives the genuine essence of an artist. I feel the same way about Steve Smith. He was so nasty prior to Gruber. I’m sure Steve (and Dave) feel like they’re better mechanically in some ways, and may very well be, but as a result of the study they sound more in their heads and concerned about technique. Like they are telling themselves not to do this and to be sure to do that. That takes up bandwidth and can interfere with raw emotion and ideas. Also, removes the individuality. Think about if Jimi Hendrix started practicing technique and flow. Playing to a click track… it would have completely ruined his contribution and individuality. Same with Led Zeppelin, The Who, etc. So I don’t begrudge them for being curious students wanting to improve themselves at all. I’m just bummed a little when in that process, some of what made them unique, special with an individual style is erased or diminished through academic pursuit. All that said, I still love these guys but I miss the youthful fire. Rock and roll is a big part reckless abandon and attitude. I miss the middle finger of every one of these guys. Ha!

I agree and disagree. Look at Weckl now. He's untouchable, the god of flow, and dynamics. Had he stayed at this level, he would have quickly been surpassed by fresher talent.

There is a whole lot of blending from afro-cuban, caribbean, samba and bossa's. Well,... Dave mastered all of them, grooving further all of their intricated rhythmic pulses with very clean crisp execution.

What electronics was he using that needed recoding? This is pure 80’s gold when young drummers such as myself were looking g up to guys like him. Such an inspiration!❤

I am 61 and still barley qualify to carry his drums! He was so advanced all the way back then even. Talent and a lot of formal training I guess. I am self taught. Dave, Vinnie etc., all those type cats have formal training and it shows!

@@MultiSkyman1 Well, when I did play I banged traditional, so I listen to all but I mostly follow the evolution of the boys Weckl, Donati, Vinnie, JoJo etc. Greyson is cool for what he does too. And ofc my "matched" 3xGrammy winner cousin Brannen Temple. The drum- offs we had as kids... Him here making 3 drums kick tastefully. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWOqZ6mun9t2i6Msi=5ifm_AiU-9JRWj0a
