[@peterhlinka4789]

My feeling is this: There are times when there is nothing as boring in the entire history of mankind as a drum solo. This here is one of those times. With few exceptions like Buddy, Ian Paice and Danny Carey who are tremendous technicians and its amazing just to witness the motor coordination of these cats. esp for drummers. It's Jim Chapin's advanced techniques book come to life. I made it almost to page 3. I've been playing for almost sixty laps around the Sun and I can confidently say this guy is mostly self-taught which is fine but he never took it beyond singles and triplets with some crossover flash. Drums sound annoying and the story he's attempting to tell has no plot nor imagination. I mean the guy's Latin for cryin out loud. What's the problem? He stops like 5 times (wtf) for no reason other than to play the same stuff on different drums then just kinda peters out at the end. What else did you get for Christmas? Shit, at least blow something up. One bonus point: the girls down there seem to really know their business when it comes to screaming and that's always been music to my ears, just sayin...

No kidding. I think someone needs to research some drummers before making such a bold statement. Not a clue

[@peterhlinka4789]

Rich, Carey, Paice, Lang etc, etc..Ringo and Watts as well, for sure. The list goes on. All communicating/expressing facets their individual personalities thru their instrument. Its where artists(musicians esp) go when muscle memory, limb independence aren't so much a concern. You can't really maintain a conversation until you can pronounce and understand a language. Diversity insures they'll always be an opening for future legends. To use my metaphor again, how boring it would be if we all thought and spoke alike? It's why I have an issue with all this 'who's the best' or 'who's your favorite'. None of it means anything but it would mean even less if there was nothing to compare with. So what are you waiting for, power off the computer and go woodshed.

@@NOAHCASAS To God be all praise! Who created man in His Own Image, Who gave men gifts, how they are used and exploited is between all men to give answer for. Let's not judge one-another. The bible states that Lucifer, whom God created, was in charge of all Worship/Praise/Instruments...as we can attest...Lucifer got greedy and wanted to be God, he was Selfish and GOD banished Lucifer from heaven and sent him to Earth, Lucifer took 1/3 of Gods angels with him. Jesus Christ defeated Lucifer (Satan) for all eternity, when his blood was shed on Calvary's Tree. But GOD raised His Son Jesus Christ from the dead. Satan cannot defeat you, (If) you are Saved and believe into Christ and the work He did to freely purchase you from an eternity Separated from Light, The Light and Eternal Life with Jesus Christ. Are You Saved? Have you repented from your Sin's? It's a CHOICE that we will either LIVE OR DIE BY!!! Q: What does Jesus have to say about drumming? Think on it and give all Glory to God.

Jajajaja Alex es un exelente baterista pero the best drum solo in the history of mankind, come on!!

[@scottlively3049]

Solid with a great visual. Love love the kit setup. Was it the best? I don't know what defines best. But Neil Peart wrote, yes actually wrote a book on soloing. I see this phenomenal drummer here play things I saw Neil do years ago. Try reading "Anatomy Of A Drum Solo". Until then, thanks for sharing and lets enjoy both.

For me Alex is one of the greatest drummers of the world. The way he plays his music, the band mana has a lot of influence from music all over the world, and for me that's what makes Alex a incredible drum player. Not just for this solo,but also for all the songs he plays.

So he's the only drummer name you know huh? There are many, equal or better drummers than Neil.

[@prhtasecuritycommittee8657]

Exactly there are...in fact I played drums myself during my prime years in my hometown, all though today I play, guitar and some bass....but still love drums...been listening to drummers since Billy Cohen, ...all the way through Buddy, Aldridge, Alex, Castronovo, Alex EVH....even Phil Colins, but most admired...Rick Allen ..one hand drummer..all great but, all had in common a drum drill during solos, you woud choose who ran it better...Neil would put up a drill plus a musical concept on drums, various toms tones hit at the right moment..is what I described as a Drum Concert...plus the setup...thats what makes him the greatest..today we might have a probaly Neil growing...6 year old named Baby Drummer....creates his own squence and details on the pc then follows through, plays with great feeling... Cant say I know alot but seen pretty much to figure it out. By the way, had the priviledge to see Neil live at my home town....unforgetable experience.

[@mapexzildjian6361]

@@prhtasecuritycommittee8657 Do you know of Tony Royster Jr? Or Larnelle Lewis, Dennis Chambers, Carter beauford, Thomas Lang, Danny Carey?? Neil was a great drummer but with so many contrasting styles there's no way to say who is the best. In my opinion it definitely wasn't him.

For all you none musicians this may sound like the best solo, however, for drummers or musician this would not be considered the best. Its a ok, loud and long solo with repetitive paradiddles. Don't get me wrong (guys a pro) it takes talent to do this but its far form being the best. I give this guy 👍 for his hard work and dedication, most of all endurance. No special degree of Dynamics or a signature style, mostly speed. miced up drummers always sound good

He has a few Hi-Hats in there, doesn't he? The big floor tom is in an odd place. Terry Bozzio did the standing on the drums thing a long time ago. This drummer has some chops. He's doing a lot of rolls and a bit of polymeter and polyrhythms. A few interesting fills. But, there isn't a lot outside of speed here. Not a lot of finesse or complexity here. Not certain how anyone could miss all the other great Jazz and Rock drummers that do this kind of stuff constantly (and arguably better), but glad someone digs this. Peace out.

[@carloscerati6607]
