    the man literally played all through the history of rock with everybody who is and was somebody. I cannot believe how good he is, nobody can. a living legend by all means of that word. I think legend defines itself by having relations to tommy f'king aldridge. thank you mr aldridge. from all of us. thank you from the bottom of our hearts. nobody else like you...

    Saw this man lighting up the famous red double bass Yamaha kit in 1987 when Whitesnake opened for Motley Crue on the Girls tour. I was a kid and seeing Tommy Aldridge and Tommy Lee on that tour was pretty insane. Years later I can honestly say that Aldridge was the technician and Lee was the showman. Tommy Aldridge is the kind of rock drummer I prefer to emulate. A true legend!

  • @silvertuna6270
    @silvertuna6270 2 роки тому +6

    This video is great. You can really see how loose he’s actually playing. There’s crazy power but all the energy is coming from stick velocity. He’s gripping the sticks only tight enough to keep them from slipping out of his hands. Those big snare hits are being deflected and the cymbal crashes are finessed. That’s the secret to his longevity. That and being from another planet. Keep it up Tommy!

    @technicalitems731 4 роки тому +8

    A legend! I learned this whole album on drums when I was 13-14. It was a lesson in tasty slick heavy licks they stayed tight with the song. There are little nuances that the average listener doesn’t hear. All they hear is bass and snare drum. Tommy is a powerhouse with finesse. In the context of a song, it’s not a place to use every possible drum solo lick in your arsenal. This is methodical and musical.

      @@h96pro32 Ah yep. Notice how most of the song is just the most simple 1/4 beat. That's all it needs. That's all he plays. We all KNOW he can destroy that kit. But that wouldn't be right for that moment in that song. Similar to another Whitesnake song, Only My Soul. All the drummer plays during the solo is 1/4 and it's VERY powerful.
