    Plus Alex just had his own sound. No drummer sounded like Alex. He is one of those drummers who you can hear and know that it him right away like Bonzo or Mooney. Interesting to hear Everybody Wants Some vs. Panama! Never put that together. I think he tends to get overlooked due to Edwards gigantic impact on the guitar world, but your right. Alex is one of the greatest drummers in rock and roll history. I really hope we get to hear him play more in the future.

    This is a great video! HUGE Alex Van Halen fan!!! I’ve always been a fan of Van Halen since my first experience. I heard Jump when I was 6 or 7 when it came out. So I came in backwards into the 6 pack. I’ve been hooked since. Also second album I heard was F.U.C.K, then 0U812….but then I heard Unchained, then VH 1!!! My lord! This is a great breakdown of the band.
    There are no bad songs on those first 6 albums! Even later on, the rest of the catalogue and eras still rate higher to me than most bands!
    Thanks for this!

    @michaelfurey1970 2 роки тому +6

    Really nice job dissecting AVH's playing on these tracks. His double-bass playing was superlative. He could boogie, shuffle and even play rudiments with his feet. As you said, he was really the perfect compliment to Eddie's playing style and energy. After Bonham, no rock drummer in AVH's generation or the one that he inspired could touch him. Hope he and Wolf can put together a tribute just to see him rip through those tunes one more time. Hope you get to 1000 soon...

    I play guitar and drums. I was pretty decent on both back in the day.
    I could do a lot of eddies tricks on guitar. Andi could play most of the songs on drums. But the stuff Alex did live during his drum solos always blew me completely away. I couldn't even begin to wrap my mind around it, much less actually play it.
    Live right here right now, pleasure dome is a perfect example the RLR LRL RLR LRL pattern he plays with his feet, playing cymbals only with his right hand and drums only with his left hand... His coordination is mind boggling. And you know a lot of it is purely spontaneous, completely improvised right there on the spot, right there, right then.
    Drum solo was the highlight of the concert. In my opinion. I saw them 8 times. Axes blew me away each time. Fabulous drummer

    Fran, you have articulated what so many of us know but haven't or couldn't break down. Remove Alex from Van Halen and the signature sound of the band collapses. Pulling Frank Beard influences along with pinpointing classic swing influences is fantastic! Alex distilled all of his influences into his own swinging style and there is absolutely no-one like him. So many double kick players sound like a metronome but Alex used it to propel the a killer boogie/swing element and you isolated that so well. We want part 2 at some point! Thanks for drawing attention to one of the two best rock players of all time. Alex and Bonham stand alone for me at the top of the heap.

    It's really rare for me to find anyone saying positive things about Alex Van Halen. He's right up there in my favorites with Ian Paice, Bonzo, Cozy Powell, Porcaro and Copeland. You're the first guy I heard put him right on top with Bonham. Thank you! He's not only a really difficult drummer for me to emulate, but I always felt he was immensely talented, and had such an amazing feel!

    This doesn't really get said enough, but Alex's playing was really a big inspiration for Eddie. He followed Al and it was mentioned in the book "Eruption - Conversations with Edward Van Halen" that Al was really Edwards muse and they just fed off of each other. Not to say that EVH would not have been as successful without Al but Al certainly played a key role

    Back in 86 when Roth went solo, me and my band at the time were guests of his (Roths) backstage after the show and we were all hanging out. I asked "Diamond" Dave what advise he might give to us and he said point blank to me "Steal. Steal everything you can and make it your own." He then went on to give us a verbal list of all the Van Halen songs that were direct rip-offs (his words) of Beach Boys, ZZTOP!!!, and some other bands tunes. I wish I could remember what the examples were because he flat out told us what was from what... But I can't. It was 36 years and how many fuckin beers ago???... Millions??? LOL! Ahhhh... memories and youth. Anyway, yes... Alex is one of the GOAT's. No-One will ever take that away from him.

    And I also wanted to add: 'I'm The One' has been my least-favourite song off the 'Van Halen I' album, but after hearing the drums by themselves, I found some new appreciation for it 😊👍 And 'Diver Down' is my favourite VH album, despite half of the songs being covers; But the originals being very strong is making up for that for me 😁 Stewart Copeland is another drummer who comes to _my_ mind in regards to the off-beat bass drum thing (just slower 😉); Another favourite drummer of mine, for just as long as Alex has been 😃

      Hi @@fab.silva1119! 😀 Yes, I'm a drummer myself. And Alex has been one of my favourite drummers since '79 🙂 I think I don't much like 'I'm The One' because of its general vibe!? I'm not entirely sure and can't really put my finger on it. No offense to anyone who _does_ like the song, though! 😉 I'm also not a big fan of the 'Women And Children First' album, because it sounds so 'all over the place' to me, like it hadn't been properly composed. And that clip of 'Loss Of Control' with the isolated drums and only the guitar audible in the background is sooo much better than the proper version (to me)! 😆

    Whats up brother. Alex VH in my opinion is one of the best rock drummers ever. He and Edward both had that innate ability to swing. I loved the sound of Alex's snare. I could identify it immediately if it was in a "line up". While I am a guitarist, nice very close N for N on the outta love solo by the way, I've always been super stoked at the way Alex swung and kept it all together. All the tasty little fills, just like his little brother, all just came so naturally and fit and flowed perfectly. Thanks for a good analysis on Alex Van Halens ability to swing. Well done. I have subscribed and good luck with the channel bro. I look forward to more videos. Later. Spencer

    I was hanging out a while back with some musician buddies of mine. A bass player, a couple guitar players and a couple drummers. We were talking about some of our favorite musicians. When the subject of drummers came up and we started asking who our favorite drummers were, everyone said all of the standard answers. John Bonham. Neil Peart etc. Then I said those were all great choices. But one of my all time favorites was Alex Van Halen. At first they looked at me funny, then they stopped and thought about it when I started naming off some of Alex’s best work. When I mentioned Outta Love and how it swings, grooves and even has some jazz licks, every one of them said “Hell yeah! Awesome pick!” Alex definitely has some Ginger Baker influence. Not to mention he has his own sound and attack. You KNOW it’s Alex!

      @@francapitanelli9775 You're welcome. You really know your music - I love your insights, like on the "missing" beats, etc., on Stones numbers :D - and you know how to make it really entertaining!

    Their succes is really the influence of California.I´m Dutch and i´m sure they would have become musicians in the Netherlands
    but in the US they could become the band as we know

    This is my new favorite channel. Genius stuff. YES the VH shuffle is the secret sauce. Comes from being raised on big band swing jazz. I dont think Al is double stroking the bass drum shuffle on Im the one though. Pretty sure Hes shuffling back and forth. I love your focus on Al’s drumming it is so overlooked.

    Beautiful Girls is a great example of Alex swinging it ,,,agree with other posts as well that Alex had his own sound , very unigue and recognizeable

    I would think the double bass in I'm the one is rlrl not rrll. But who knows what he did.

      Don't forget, guys: Alex plays *4* bass drums! So it's actually R - L - _far_ R - _far_ L !
