And you'll notice, friends: No flash pots, no smoke bombs, no weird face makeup. Just fantastic musicians doing their thing. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame notwithstanding, The Ventures have never gotten the credit they truly deserve, IMHO.

I agree. They were a powerful inspiration for me. Made me love guitar for guitar but all of them were great.

ONE OF THE GREAT DRUMMERS EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
we loved to play that song and walk don't run....those were the days for young bands who were short on singing.....man we played lots of instrumentals....Memphis, scratchy, Matilda, wheels, surf twist, wipe out, caravan, 4o miles of bad road, milk cow blues, steel guitar rag, sleepwalk, out of limits, pipeline, our own curfew and crawling, the new wildwood flower (rock version), red river rock, sail along silvery moon, and many more...

Best of ALL TIME!! Love and miss him. His son, Leon does a fantastic job.
I know it isn’t the original lineup but THE important thing is the chaps are carrying on the legacy. Well done boys!

After Mell Taylor's death his son took over his place with the Ventures. He drums just like his dad. Possibly the best drummer ever!!!

Leon Taylor. Saw him with Mel and Nokie in, I think, 2012. Great drummer. They did Caravan, Mel would have been proud.

Instrumentally only, perhaps the best rock band ever.
is this guy(drummer) related to Buddy Rich ?? Glad he gets to show his skills compared to the early days. Great, great, great !!! Fantastic band !!
@DieHard109018 жыл бұрын
I saw Buddy Rich and his band live in 1971 in New York, this guy is every bit as good as Buddy. Wonder if they ever met?

I hate to say it but i liked Mel's original playing in the 60's on the little 4 piece drum set with one ride cymbal and hi-hat. Kind of surprising that he maintained playing traditional grip when most rock drummers use match. It goes to show you that having a huge drum set does not make you a better drummer. I think the 1965 Japan concert was way better.

I think Nokie is better, but I'm prejudice because I grew up with Nokie as lead.
When America still had the moral authority. When MBA never taught to sell 1c item for $100. When Good was good and evil was Evil. Honesty > Flexibility., Honor > Money and Life > Death. When America was not as greedy as the colonizers. I loved America. Not an American proud to say now. Would be ashamed to admit it earlier. This was the music.
