The Danny Carey Profiles: Soundcheck, Episode 01 (The Roots)

[@M_Lev]

And now Danny will be performing 80s King Crimson with Tony Levin and Adrian Belew! So excited for this, CAN'T WAIT!

[@AngryBeerrin]

Got my tickets! ! !

[@DrumCoversFromHell]

He's such a true musician

[@ciffi]

Wow, this is one of the best vids youtube has spit out in a loooong time. Tool - 1997 - right on their way to peak of their career. Absolutely awesome

[@AngryBeerrin]

I saw him with Belew last night!!!

[@stoogend]

You can really hear the King Crimson influence on Tool when he plays the song in the CD player at 3:17.

[@ifancyurmom]

Definitely an inspiration for vicarious

[@eppieppi]

wow absolutely

[@scrobblesbyDJGunbound]

Danny's older brother is my metaphysics professor at university. I didn't know they were brothers till yesterday.

[@bmuDLuck]

Wow that’s so damn cool

[@SENA-76]

@bradleymurphy7 High five! I recorded this from television onto VHS back in 1997, so it was about time to share it for good causes.

[@bigburnsbiss1]

Ah, we need a Tool Documentary. Who's with me?

[@AkRev]

Woah, what a gem. Thanks for sharing this with us. Indeed, KC's Discipline was very innovative and great to hear Danny's thoughts on it.

[@DCRivs]

Goddamn, Thanks for the post dude! That cd he just poped in sounds tasty, and you can really tell where his style and influence comes from. I'd be delighted if Danny ever came out with a solo album :D

[@drewper73]

I could always tell he was influenced by Bill Bruford just by listening to his drumming and sure enough he pulls out King Crimson's "Discipline" cd. If you've never heard "Discipline," "Beat," or "Three of a Perfect Pair" by King Crimson then you need to go out and find them or order them online. Great drumming by Bruford. Also has Adrien Belew, Robert Fripp, and Tony Levin. Highly recommended if you like Tool. It's just a different kind of "heavy" than Tool.

[@eppieppi]

wow that explanation about the king crimson influence really tells a lot!!!

[@bfunderb5899]

This is amazing. Thank you so much.

[@glacieractivity]

This is probably one of the best-kept secrets of youtube.

[@ramtin1001]

this is amazing!! thanks a lot for sharing man!! cheers

[@ErniLopezOsornio]

@SunblindingSnow because of people like you it worth to keep searching things in yotube. Thank you sooooooo much!!!!!!

[@ddrumdude]

Thankyou very much for uploading this. Very interesting insight.

[@thr337]

thanks for the upload!!!!!

[@MrMelvi87]

Thanks for this video, What a find!!

[@logicalfallacy234]

Bass tone in the beginnings amazing if you listen closely. Just has that midrange crunch.

[@sandenson]

Tony Levin is a terrific player with a great tone, but his tone in this song, Discipline, is especially tasty.

[@ethanburgess3475]

That would be Justin’s wal bass

[@bilo761]

@SunblindingSnow Thanks so much!!!

[@CoolHouse70]

So great you have this, I've been looking for this, but don't have a copy myself. I did the interviews on this series.

[@drewper73]

@Insid15 That's a good point. I could still listen to them while watching the DVD. I've seen them twice and they put on a great show which is why I'd like to see a well-produced live DVD to relive those experiences and rewind/pause the moments that blow my mind. You're definitely right about them not showing off at their concerts. The 1st time I saw them Maynard was right up front, but the 2nd time in 2001, he was back and to the left. All you could see was his silhouette. Maybe 1 of these days.

[@Ma4t2t0_]

The song he was playing from King crimson literally sounds like third eye they definitely got alot of king crimson influence in there style of playing

[@Piclemania]

you are a wonderful human

[@ciffi]

By the way, the docu might have aired in 1997 but the live recordings have been made in the fall of 1996. I've looked it up at Tool's tour journal.

[@Gonko100]

god i want the new record...

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

It's here. Ya still around?

[@mikebrown1156]

4:36 Nice shirt, Dan. Glad to see you dropped Kmart for a KU jersey

[@Burbah]

3:19 Sounds like Vicarious was inspired by this segment ...

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

Oh shit.

[@SENA-76]

@ciffi ...to witness the beauty ...of our enthousiasm.

[@ddrumdude]

@eyeronman87 well it's a 3/2 signature, alternating at most points between the feet and the hands. Looks to me like a soundcheck, because you should always play every feature of the kit when doing so.

[@ciffi]

@SunblindingSnow Oh, now I see that you've already figured it out in your description. ... God, we are such nerds! ^^

[@felipeadroc]

I knew I had heard the Lateralus wierd pattern, or something like that, before. Marvelous anyway!

[@warlordzephyr]

A beginner plays a beat, a professional backs up the other musicians by following thier playing with the drums. A great player does that and plays a melody aswell

[@frostee1452]

Peter Scott Bruford also said that "its all in four it just has differently placed accents"

[@bradleymurphy7]

If I saw you in person right now I would hug you, or at the least shake your hand. Where did you find this?

[@2morrowillcome]

i take no credit for spotting this, but that's billy back there at 0:45

[@SENA-76]

Yeah, longs for more craving without getting any... :( This just reminds one how good they are.

[@AggieEE462]

Anyone know what's going on at 2:30? Assuming its just a warm up, but it would be nice if any drummers could provide some insight.

[@supr3m3us]

@Thejaycefish It's Third Eye.

[@IRideHonda99]

i love u god !

[@tempestsp]

His description of Discipline always puzzles me...he says the drums are in 15 though I am pretty sure they are in 17. I am very hesitant to say he is wrong, being the incredible musician he is, but can anyone explain why he says this when even Bruford said it is in 17?

[@heatherperleberg7816]

I think he was just listing numbers to prove a point instead of giving specifics.

[@cyberpaimpol]

So Primus should sound great !

[@WMidnight]

2:30 to about 2:56 is pretty awesome

[@drewper73]

@bigburnsbiss1 I'm with you, but I'd rather see a well-produced DVD concert. The only DVD stuff from Tool I've ever seen is "unauthorized." I've seen them live twice. I know they could put out an awesome live DVD but for some reason they haven't.

[@7empest47]

2:31 Chocolate Chip Trip

[@sotool76]

2,57 King crimson - Discipline \m/

[@5nugg]

4:23 Jizzed in my pants

[@BanditsLair]

@pabloartify wn nos podemos meter a la pagina y mandamos petiiones consiguete a gente y les enviamos wn!! (Y)

[@T00L337]

Thankyou so much for sharing! Any insight into what this mans thoughts are concerning beats and music... well lets just say it gives me a boner.

[@Elyodachido]

KING CRIMSON rules.

[@travisbickleish]

@bigwaves81 nothing to be sorry about..........its a non contest...Carey is the second best drummer to ever play.Bonham has/is number one !..just my opinion,for what its worth.

[@luckyduck82jakptak]

@luckyduck82jakptak

[@gmac2558]

I look like a pervert when I listen to Killing Joke!

[@luckyduck82jakptak]

ZOMBIES!!

[@joshuak4372]

BEAT Adrian Belew. Tony Levin. Steve Vai. Danny Carey.
