Ronnie Tutt drum solo 1977 Elvis in concert

[@cindyrutterable]

Best drummer in the world. Of course a little prejudice as he is my DAD!!

[@rayadkins9890]

THE BEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD, FANTASTIC.........ALWAYS ELVIS

[@weegmon]

really?? im a huge elvis fan named my 1st son after him,aaron presley but it was supposed to be aron but hospital screwed up and he was a great drummer

[@joecelozzi9280]

Great drummer really your dad

[@curtismoff]

No shit? He was an awesome drummer or he wouldn't have been a part of TCB Elvis only picked the best

[@clifffor1179]

Cool!

[@tailgunnerrich592]

Elvis always has the best musicians to back him up.

[@Meme-zc4cw]

Yep, when you are Elvis you can pick the cream of the crop.

[@deebee9751]

I'm also a drummer and when I was 12, I saw Ronnie Tutt play in the aloha tour live on TV. He had so much energy and showmanship that I couldn't take my eyes of his fantastic playing. He really lit up the Elvis Band just like Buddy Rich did with his big band. Ronnie was giving 110% in that fantastic concert. I never heard a rock and roll drummer play like that at such a fast pace.

[@jasonbarclay1489]

Same here. I started on the drums around age 7 and that album and Ronnie just blew me away! Wore it out.

[@diagreen]

Elvis always gave his band equal time.nobody did that back then. 3 minute bass solos,drum solos,he would let his backup singers sing without him..he would put his whole band on billboards with him..coolest guy ever

[@eljefemaximo5420]

Elvis was surrounded by talent he had JD Sumner the greatest bass singer of all time.

[@kylewood8327]

Sure they did, drum solos were the norm back in the 70’s. Plus this was fat Elvis, he needed a break

[@paulgarbutt8113]

@@diagreen simply the best.

[@NoraVanWyk]

You need to learn what wit really is. ​@@kylewood8327

[@YouzTube99]

When Elvis steps back and gives YOU the spotlight . . . well, what more needs to be said? RESPECT!

[@groovemaster-bt7jr]

Such a big moment

[@rodolfoperalta5180]

Exactly

[@palmbeachcitizen]

I went to an Elvis concert in 1974 just to watch Ronnie Tutt.

[@mikejohnson-jp8rt]

Ronnie is the fuckin man. Such a great attitude and knowledge. Best In world. RIP My Man

[@PNW_Sportbike_Life]

When Elvis moves to your drumming, you know you’re doing it right!

[@susanhill149]

Thank you Ronnie!! Say hi to Elvis for us. You won’t be forgotten, drum on!

[@Keep-on-Rockying]

Heaven`s TCB-band is quite glorius now😎

[@david640]

In my opinion, Ronnie Tutt is one of the world's most underrated drummers,. This man is brilliant.

[@cherylmcdowell39]

@blindtoby NO DUMMY, I DON'T THINK ELVIS KNEW HOW TO PLAY THE DRUMS, BUT HE SURE DID KNOW HOW TO SING, PLAY THE GUITAR, AND PLAY THE PIANO!!! AMONG OTHER AMAZING THINGS!!!! RONNIE TUTT, IS THE MOST AMAZING DRUMMER EVER!!!!❤️💯🌹❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@cherylmcdowell39]

@blindtoby WOW!!!!! I DIDN'T THINK OF THAT ONE!💙

[@itowedin]

Full agreed! Way ahead of his time. I think he is totally capable of Bonham level and more for that era.

Ronnie Tutt, James Burton........ Elvis had the best........

[@CooManTunes]

+Kenneth Williams Jerry Scheff...who was also the bassist on the last album by the Doors.

[@Jon-zf3dq]

+Kenneth Williams He sure did. I tell all my friends Elvis had the best band of the 70's hands down. Don't forget Glenn on the piano, he's no slouch either.

[@rustygladden9813]

The best solo that I’ve ever seen! Wow!!

[@Yaboroqe]

The perfect drumsolo, not too long, good upbuild, drums sounds very good too. Respect Ronnie! We hope you are doing well. Grts from Europe !

[@rhythmsaint73]

Superb player and human had the pleasure of meeting him at Paiste day Nashville as we are both Paiste cymbal artists. He was super gracious and we had a great long chat about Elvis who I was named after and officers drumming and music 😇

[@timmumford2209]

Ronnie was my main influence as a kid. It was Ronnie that gave me my first dreams of becoming a drummer. I heard some of his stuff with Garcia and later Diamond, but was in a total different genre by then. Thanks Ron! You hard workin son of a gun!

[@stewartsrirvine5414]

,Ronnie . I started playing at the age of 7 the trumpet .When I first heard you on the drums Wow.I laid the horn down against my fathers wishes and got a set of drums at 11 and tried to learn to play like you.Ive had an amazing career singing and playing drums for over 40 years You have been an awsome inspiration and you still are .I would love to meet you it would be a dream come true .I just watched you play a concert with Elvis and you inspire me and my Soul Thankyou. Stew .

[@pacificblue3955]

Rest in forever peace, Ronnie. as a drummer myself i will say, you truly were one of the great ones.

[@russellcrawford7453]

Howdy from Dallas Texas! Ronnie Tutt is an autograph that I would definitely like to have on one of the albums that he was on, I had no idea he was from my hometown, all I know is that he is a legendary drummer! Long Live Elvis's last drummer Ronnie Tutt

[@PhaseConverterampV]

Very clean fills. Excellent creative solo back in the day, or even today. Thanks for posting.

[@rhythmista7707]

When i was kid and this aired, i was only 6 years old, but was already immediately drawn to the drums. I now play professionally, and have a few things to say about this man's playing. When you listen to what he's doing on this live version of That's Alright Mama, most hard rock drummers would never imagine that this guy would pull a double bass drum pattern as many 80's hard rock bands would regularly do, most notably Alex Van Halen, Tommy Aldridge, and Tommy Lee, which is the shuffle double bass drum pattern, sounding like a jackhammer. Ronnie Tutt achieved this on a rockabilly tune that Elvis' first drummer, the late and great D.J Fontana created. He managed to take a classic rock n roll drum pattern, and modernized it n the 70's on an Elvis tune no less.. That, is superior drumming.. Mr. Tutt is the man !!

[@pearldrummer4077]

Yes and the double bass towards the end of See see Rider too, notable in Elvis on tour . The guy's incredible.

[@Hugeroost]

sir you are so right, if you follow from when he got into the TCB band forward you can certainly tell that E recognized the talent and after awhile just gave him the green light. I saw Elvis maybe 10 times as a kid w my parents, and when E entered the stage and Ronnie went into that intro, it sounded like the roof was gonna cave, but it was tight, not all scattered. Ronnie had never played double bass, and said if there was ever a time this would be it, he never looked back and E loved it, love that intro to this day, aint no doubt who that is

[@mohiki69]

A M A Z I N G !!! ❤

[@macthedrummer1]

I Really enjoyed that, its mad how huge his toms look from the behind him view and @1:48, that cymbal to his left...Beautiful.

[@saraiami6096]

Each move, each hit, each beat is carefully orchestrated and felt. This man had a purpose for every drum he included...right down to the cowbell. Genius

[@brendarico715]

❤i grew up with an awesome Family❤😊 Heaven is a beautiful place❤Thank you Lord❤ for my Amazing Family❤

[@steveec9704]

Ronnie Tutt timing was impeccable

[@hilary1174]

I loved Elvis but it was your dad that made me want to learn how to play drums as a kid, thankyou for the memories. He is a legend RIP ❤

[@telcomotion]

This man is a genius! His drumming is awesome! He pushed the music of Elvis beyond any limit 🥁🥁🥁👍

[@tomdale1313]

"Elvis's whole act " was brilliantly choreographed nothing was not upper level, all involved held the title of being the best, including stage hands, sound engineers, backup singers YOU NAME IT

[@steveSticksE]

A great drummer who had to watch Elvis with his hand legs , body movements! So spot on with all live video footages I’ve seen!! As a soloist, very very basic Tom fills !! The King must have told him off to make it simple and not complicated!! lol Thanks for sharing this video too !! ❤
