For reasons unknown to me, I don't feel Sonny gets the recognition he should. Underrrated? Heck ya, that he most certainly is! Love his finesse and technical prowess. I was introduced to him through Bruce Hornsby. When i watched him play with that band, I was immediately taken a back by his ultra cool and yet commanding presence. Everytime I see him play I'm humbled and appreciative of the fine man and player he is. So glad he got the gig with Eric. That definitely says a lot. I mean Eric can get anybody he wants right?...Good choice!

He's about 12% of this performance. I have the distinct feeling that this man would sound just as good on my set or yours. I first saw Sonny Emory live with Earth Wind & Fire at Birmingham's NEC decades ago and on that night, he played completely for the music, but this is 'other worldly'.

Il tecnico del suono è sicuramente bravo ma il 90% del lavoro dipende dalla bravura del batterista! . Sonny Emory potrebbe utilizzare il tuo lavoro di batterista al posto della carta igienica, che usa quando va a defecare.

I thought I knew all of the drummers who have been impactful to the art of drumming and I have no idea how I could have missed Sonny's massive talent for so many years. His speed, precision, dynamics, balance, percussion-integration are insane. I know that left-foot clave thing has been done before (usually by Cuban drummers, e.g. Horacio, Dafnis) but there is still something very fresh and original in how he does it. Sonny Emory is one impressive musician.

Hell , i dont even believe there is any such thing as "The Best Drummer". All people are unique in their own different ways with talents they possess. And Thank god for that! i would hate this stuff if all played the same but there was some sort of rating system. As long as Sonny has been around playing the drums and mastering his technique, i would bet my last dollar that he could sit down and Make ANY song produced by ANY band no matter what type of music it is....sound pretty fckn good.

Definitely one of my favorite drummers of all time. If you gotta chance to see him in his younger days he was one of the first I saw doing drums solos in complete darkness with glow up drumsticks. It was mind blowing!! Not to mention with on of my favorite band’s of all time….. EWF!!

This guy did a drum seminar in Phoenix AZ...OMG...years ago...25-30 with Terry Bozzio (I'm sorry Terry, I love you man but this day you were upstaged). Sonny did a simple roll on the snare that was unbelievably even/smooth for a few minutes, then began to switch between singles and doubles ...so smooth you could not tell the difference. His playing was so precise, so melodic, so creative...then he started to do a double base groove with one base drum...I literally got out of my seat and walked over to take a look at what the hell he was doing to pull it off. To this day I can't tell you what or how he was doing it. Just blown away! He has been in my top 10 drummers list ever since. (...and yes Terry you're there too ;-)
