Josh, kudos to you for putting Dave on your channel . I met Dave back in the 90's . I was his drum tech for an evening . He walks in , and starts helping me set up his own drums ! He was so chill , we just started kicking it and eating pizza while setting up. I was just some average guy just helping out , and Dave treated me with respect . Being a young man from the Bronx , that meant the world to me . You are heading in a great direction Josh by starting to put the greats on - in addition to the up and coming . May I kindly suggest a few ? Dennis chambers : Billy Cobham : Vinnie Colaiuta : Sheila E ( her performance at the Modern Drumner festival is epic ) : The above are trailblazers . Keep up the good work . Tom Maynard , New York
True story , the keyboard and I was in a band together when he came to America for about 5 years the band was called ezzeldin trio . I remember he tried to give Dave weckl a demo back in 09 08 , Dave weckl looked down at him like get outta here , Osam left the country started playing with the Turkish all stars. Came back to the United States gave the same music to Kye Ecklhart , bass playa for garaj mahal Osam end playing with Dave anyway thru Kye . Dave weckl ended up becoming a fan of Osam without knowing he was the same person he looked down back in Dallas at the brook mays . I’ve studied and listened to Dave every since he’s been on wax , Osam is a good friend of mine . Damn video lil homie . This is the best you done so far , this is supreme drumming.
Dave Weckl will either make you want to practice more,, or just quit all together!! Has been my favorite since the “back to basics “ vhs cassette!! Thank you sir!
Out of all the millions of good drummers out there.. HE is one of only a few you can recognize within 3 seconds of hearing !! Hes sooooo damn good.. plays with all these top level musicians daily and just doesn't ever seem to get lost. or even drop a damn stick playing this crazy difficult music! Lol
cobra1995xx youre right. I can always recognize him on a track. I remember hearing a tune over speaker and the drumming was fantastic. But it sounded familiar. Sure enough it was him. I thought to myself well that explains alot.
Glad to see you enjoying one of the best ever. I saw the David Weckl Band in The Colony Theater in Connecticut years ago. He was one of my inspirations to play the drums for 18 years of my life. To ditto another comment here about other drummers. Manu Katche, Vinnie Colaiuta, Joe Morello, Marco Minneman, Dennis Chambers, Bernard Purdie, Virgil Donati are just several other fantastic players to check out if you haven't already !
So many great drummers, but Dave's fluidity is second to none. He floats around the drums. I always seem to come back to Dave. What he's doing is not as important as how he's doing it. You want to get to the next level study Dave Weckl!
The living legend!!! Ooooh!!! feel soooo good bro!!! The story of the ride and hat's blew me away!!!! Not stiff and no ttoo much hard hitting sooo relax the way he hit the kit man !!! Classsy!!! Groove is killing me!!!!
I'm new to your page young man, you really put out some really great content and I love your chops as well. Keep it up Young King. I enjoy Dave, I seen him do a drum clinic many years ago when his hair was black and I had hair.😅😅😅😅
The Man. The Legend. This was awesome Josh!! Appreciate your variety man. By the way, not sure who l loved more on this Dave or the dude on the keys!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Wat tha helllll funky smoov relentless wave and liks bra jus coolin it wit the rag on his head octives an all too much to even breath in jus the beginning I'm done blessings josh thanks for the reaction wow

Thomas Maynard Maaaaaan!!! Great references!!! Some of my greatest inspirations!!!!
I grew up on Dave Weckl! He's been doing this for 40yrs+!
NEVER has there been a smoother drummer than Dave Weckl. Good LORD!!!!
Weckl and Donati are from another planet! It doesn’t get any better, more complex or groovier than them

Back to Basics was my drum Bible from age 4-15
So true haha and I’m a bass player. His playing makes me work harder!
There are a lot of great drummers, but no one has Daves fluidity. It's really amazing to watch how he just sails around with perfection, unmatched!
Dave has a bunch of albums as well that are so worth checking out and learning from. Hours and hours of gold!
Arguably the best in the drumming business. He checks all the boxes.

Dave never gets old and stays well preserved!
Dave is seriously one of the best!
