A drummer whose natural talents have been combined with countless hours of personal study, practice and experience. As a drummer myself, Vinnie is the most skilled and creative drummer I've heard in my entire lifetime.
I absolutely love Vinnie ! Chops are crispy as milk toast biscuits! Sensibility like no other ! If he had played on… On Red Gardenien Street…. Oh Man !
I've been a drummer all my life almost and Vinnie only recently got on my radar. Been listening lately to him and I have to say he is one of the top drummers out there. Don't know if he is the GOAT but he is definitely a contender.
Better late than never..😁 I started playing drums since 11 yrs old, discovered Vinnie when I was 14. I’m 46 now and I can say that Vinnie is the drummer I listen to the most. Though my first favorite drummers I could say are Stewart Copeland and Jeff Porcaro. Cheers!
I love Vinnie's playing. He is one of my most favourite drummers today, an incredible talent and oh so very very capable in so many genres but this performance does nothing for me. To my ears especially the opening has nothing to do with jazz and nothing quite fits here. It's a good thing Buddy wasn't around to hear this.
I love Vinnie but after listening to this people need to watch the Buddy videos. Buddy played awesome solos but when comping the band he was so musical. Vinnie is basically soloing throughout which is a different approach but probably what was wanted for this performance. Impressive but different. Buddy was and will always be THE MAN in my eyes.
This guy is good, but he's no Buddy Rich. The style is completely wrong. This guy plays more like a rock drummer. No finesse. He just pounds on the drums. Too much toms. Too many cymbals in his kit. And he doesn't have the speed of Buddy.
Curious comments. It is true that Buddy had a comfort level with these charts since he played them for years - compared with someone who has only played them a few times. And I've never been a fan of the sound of Vinnie's toms for this event. I don't know if it was him or some drum tech that ended up with that thuddy sound. Otherwise I think there's a lot to like with Vinnie's performance. To each his own, of course - but no finesse? Too many cymbals? Doesn't have the speed? Really...?
@@DrJ-hx7wv I have ears to hear. That's all one needs. And I said that this Vinnie guy is good. I'm just saying that his style is unlike Buddy Rich. And I will also say that there's nothing wrong with that either. Individuality and uniqueness is what makes the world go around. It'd be a pretty boring place if everything was exactly the same.
Outstanding. I highly recommend also looking up Buddy Rich's performance of this song on UA-cam if you haven't done so already. It was on the Johnny Carson show in 1979. Another great watch.
I think Vinnie has been the best drummer alive for over 40 years.
Io no! 😂
Yes
One of the very best.. but nobody claims to be the ultimate drummer. That's just silly
Undoubtedly! There are many greats, but there’s only one Vinnie Colaiuta.

Big band drumming; a discipline on its own. And Vinnie nailed it.
Man everyone was in rare form at this Buddy Rich Memorial Scholarship
I wish i could give this more than just 1 thumbs up. Gave me goosebumps
This band ROCKS!!! Wonderful tribute to Mr. Rich!!
Dealing, absolutely in the zone. Incredible focus and creativity
I absolutely love Vinnie !
Chops are crispy as milk toast biscuits!
Sensibility like no other !
If he had played on… On Red Gardenien Street…. Oh Man !
Impareggiabile!
Go Vinnie GO
hell YEAH
Goddamn Vinnie!!!

@@JoEsp My first fav drummer was Carl; Palmer. From Emerson Lake and Palmer.
#GOAT #DonVincenzo
Rapid-fire drum style is initially exciting, but, melodic and syncopated is best.
....next to Buddy!
why are the vids keep getting removed?

You could at least spell his name right in the title!
As much as I love Vinnie's playing, he's not a big band drummer. But I respect his attempt.

Techniquement monstrueux mais putain ça swingue pas un caramel
Nope!

That’s the point. It’s Vinnie’s style playing Buddy. Oh and by the way Buddy Rich is no Vinnie!

I doubt you're in a position to judge

@@homerinchinatown2Well, it was like 1989. That drum sound was very popular at the time.
