Sting & Vinnie Colaiuta - Tea In The Sahara 1990

[@Thedrummersalmanac]

Vinnie is so incredible

[@alexmanne]

Nice to see Kenny Kirkland in this lineup.

[@mancuniancandidatem]

He played with this line up also in 1995-96. However , they had a horn section on those gigs that, in my opinion, didn't lend it's self to the kind of creative space sculpturing going on here.

[@scottf6821]

Saw this band during Summoners Tales tour in outdoor theater in Virginia. Great seats! Made it to the stage for the encores and Vinny slapped my hand during bows. I didn’t wash it for days!

[@Nahum17good]

Everyone came to see Vinnie and got to Sting backing him!

[@vijayanthony2574]

I can listen to this for 1000 yrs listen to it over again 🐬

[@mikenicora6701]

Vinnie gold. Thanks

[@elusive1970]

This was the sweet spot of Sting's solo career. Great to see Vinnie go to work on this. A masterclass in tasteful drumming ideas in there! I forget the timeline but this is the same band that did his Soul Cages tour and they were legendary. Thanks for uploading this I loved it.

[@JoEsp]

3/4 of the Soul Cages band. This one has the great Kenny Kirkland on keys while David Sancious was on the Soul Cages tour. Cheers!

[@seekyou]

@@JoEsp vinnie also didnt played on the soul cages album, he was on the next (10 summoner's tales)

[@JoEsp]

@@seekyou yes, manu katché played on that album but vinnie played on the tour promoting the album.

[@StevenOliver-ou5gw]

Not a master class, I'm afraid. It is a good performance but that is all. Stewart Copeland did a much better version.

[@elusive1970]

@@JoEsp Ahh right you are. I stand corrected sir

[@Preppygirl749]

Fair play to vinnie ,proving that Copelands less is more

[@timneumann8515]

Killer combination of musicians! Love that! Maybe this is one of the best bands ever...

[@jasonebarle4895]

Thank You! Thank you! That's the Vinnie I love to watch and listen to.

[@consulentecomunicazionestr3072]

Class, musicality, creativity

[@polleke1234]

it was the specific task from Sting to Vinnie to play live a "bit more" than sometimes the song asked for. But on Ten summoner 's tales for example Sting asked him to play different patterns without losing 'the feel' of the groove. anyway: Vinnie is - in any song- always a treat!! thnx for the upload!

[@solohour]

Peak Vinnie.

[@foredrums]

Sooo amazing to see how intense can be the performance from Vinnie... thank´s for this archive!

[@thedeenforever]

Thanks!

[@arieladriansoldini2263]

that Yamaha Maple custom sounds incredible, those toms are great

[@thedeenforever]

Glad you like them!

[@sweatter9214]

Its those deep 10x10 and 12x10s…

[@theatremusician]

Kenny!!!

[@Shylastahl1]

[@steldrums87]

amazing thank you so much for upload

[@thedeenforever]

Thanks for listening

[@andrealaghi7239]

Vinnie Colaiuta PERFECT

[@ChristopherDillman]

5:29 - Best live version of Walking On The Moon I've heard yet. Vinnie takes Copeland's drums and bounces it up to level 11. Quite the turnout in Chile. 👏

[@anilkarahal4526]

Vinnie's level is matchless and unique. Other sting's drummers already cant play at this level. Because of that they are playing ordinary or basic..my opinion. But true. 😎🙋‍♂️🥁sorry for my english

[@alexispardo2312]

Yo estuve ahí.....Adelante, cerca del escenario....Noche única...Sting, Colaiuta, Peter Gabriel, Sinead o´Connor, Rubén Blades....

[@fitzpat]

Great vid thanks

[@thedeenforever]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@vergon6662]

Absolute MASTERPIECE by one of the Godz - Vinnie

[@juanamado9508]

Starring Vinnie Colaiuta as Vinnie Colaiuta.

[@davidclarkson3066]

Every concert of Sting in that era, was actually one long solo of Vinnie, like Pastorius did with Weather Report🤣

[@vijayanthony2574]

Walking on the moon 😁🌙

[@arieladriansoldini2263]

Vinnie was so hot that night, melted drumsticks as well

[@mrBDeye]

What the heck is Sting doing? Video marker 3:32

[@ignacioherraizterratestara9959]

Creo que en el minuto 2:13 Sting le hace gestos a Vinnie para que baje la pegada.Creo que esta excesivamente arriba.Me convence más el planteamiento de Copeland.

[@alfrednite6398]

me parece increíble que opines eso, ya que Copeland la partía al medio a la batería, le daba con ganas y creo sin miedo a equivocarme de que si comparamos 2 videos, Copeland le pega más fuerte, no que tiene más fuerza, sino que le pega más fuerte a la batería, en eso, Vinnie es 10 veces mejor baterista que Stewart, tiene todos los matices y te tocaba con Gustavo Cerati, con Manuel Wirtz, y con el genio de Sting

[@francofernandez574]

@@alfrednite6398 Vinnie es muy bueno, me gusta mucho. Pero Copeland tiene el merito de ser el original, el que puso su sello, y es cierto Copeland es una locomotora en Atlanta 1983, parece que va a romper la caja, y termina con unos sonidos de tom profundos increíbles y remata casi de manera imperceptible con unos toque al ride...genio y figura. Copeland por siempre!!!

[@Fer-ug4nd]

Con todo el amor que le tengo a Vinnie, me gusta más la interpretación con Copeland, en especial la de Montréal, es una bestia. Aunque esta logra ser una interesante joya

[@r.hernandez6152]

Vinnie is good. But Stewart is the man!

[@arieladriansoldini2263]

the other guys plays nice too ha ha, sounds really good

[@peterweise3836]

A nice stick twirl around 1:57.

[@3D-PHASE]

Honestly the version on Bring On The Night is unbeatable

[@dudavlada2615]

Is this concert available in BluRay or DVD ?

[@JoEsp]

There’s a dvd of this. Downloaded this on torrent long ago. It’s from Amnesty International concert w/ Peter Gabriel, Sinead O’Connor etc.

[@arta6320]

POOKIE!

[@vergon6662]

VINNIE "IS" God....

[@stefanoripari1816]

Con i Police è un'altra cosa manca Stewart Copeland e Andy

[@Cicciobello-jg9cv]

Vinnie Colaiuta é un'altro livello

[@timneumann8515]

"Slow down Vinnie" at 2:13 ?

[@samcarolladrums3033]

For sure. He was like ‘chill chill’

[@vergon6662]

Ok - of COURSE Vinnie is killing it, but we also gotta cut some slack for Sting - assimilating to Vinnie & being INCREDIBLE

[@SwappingIsSaving]

Preferred Omar's take on this particular song. I doubt Vinnie would do so many heavy fills these days.

[@drummerboyharm3078]

Agree about Omar

[@Monsterdrumma]

Some might want to kill me here but I prefer Omar’s feel, to me he is greasier and I prefer that.

[@jimhardiman3836]

@@Monsterdrumma I felt the same way when John Scofield went from Omar to Dennis Chambers. The feel and musicality on Still Warm is superb.

[@dornelli1]

Vinnie sits very low on the drums

[@howies5265]

Love Vin sorry Stew played it better just no substitute 🤟🥁🤟

Too bad Stings career didn’t go anywhere….

[@mancuniancandidatem]

😂

[@dantean]

Better to have patched things up with Stewart Copeland than turn to the KING of soulless chops-meisters.

[@HansMagnusNedreberg]

Is that your take on Vinnie?

[@162534283746]

For forty years or so, the list of world renowned musicians and song writers who like that "soulless" sound has been fairly . . . large.

[@jckhammer]

Become a drummer and or a musician first , until then you are stuck with soulless thoughts it's as simple as that

[@devonkenny889]

😳😆. Vinnie!!!!

[@webstercat]

Vinnie is the most recorded & successful drummer in history. Multi Millionaire
