Yes ...categorically he's a Rock Drummer.. I'm 55 and most drummers of my generation studied Jazz Buddy Rich was Unavoidable if you wanted to raise the bar of your chops Peart is 12 yrs older than me He was playing Jazz when Progressive Rock was incubating
@@judgedredd3568, no, he wasn’t. Peart avoided jazz until well into adulthood because he knew he’d never have enough chops to play like the greats. That’s why he chose to play rock.
@@richcapo I won't argue with you ...you seem to know more than me...I find it hard to believe because most drummers find jazz unavoidable...especially drummers my age and older... We didn't have internet or UA-cam and VCR's didn't show up till a good few years til after we started...so we only had Rock and Jazz records if you were looking for music that would really feature great drumming..for example ...I started drumming at 8 ..saw buddy rich live when I was 13...my family got our first VCR when I was 16...saw my 1st Buddy Rich video when i was 18 he was playing with Sinatra...now today I can look up any drummer on UA-cam
For those that didn't BR, will probably go down as the greatest drummer of all time. Growing up a Rush fan, I always though NP was in a class by himself. I have watched videos of BR and can only say...WOW. How awesome would it have been watching the two of them side by side?
Cara, esses rudimentos....😱😱😱😱😱😱 Expetacular... Versatilidade insana.... Mestre Neil Peart... Não é atoa que tocou com outros mestres no Rush. RIP, Neil! O melhor baterista que ja caminhou por esse planeta...🥁
Hey haters, for crying out loud, it was a TRIBUTE to BR! He would have never considered himself even as good as Buddy, much less superior. He helped organize this show to share with the world how great BR had been. It’s total respect. He even performed a mini-tribute during his solos with Rush. Give the man his due. He loved Buddy Rich as much as you do.
I love how he plays the first part until the solo completely straight, perfect, machine like, but only just very very slightly doing anything remotely creative or showy.... and then solo until the last hit of the song it's all out awesome, combining many of his greatest creative ideas into one masterpiece
The tempo is so fast! I love it! The BRB complained that everyone too slow so Neil sped it up a bit, love him! Neil loved Buddy. He’s built off Buddy, and others, and really took it to another level. Half the stuff pro drummers were probably invented or modified by Neil, lol! 😂 Thank you for posting, and Thank you, Neil!!! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
When you've hit the drums so hard over the years, well, I would forgive the lack of swing, however he does nail the essence of jazz drumming, an I reckon many rock drummers would be well behind the genre mark 'The Professor' due to his incessant reading, understanding, an literally prowess-that title could easily of sat well with his drumming an the amazing array of his percussion arrangement Aye, well missed
He was in a band he was in one of the baddest bands ever he was Neil Peart the drummer for Rush but he passed away here recently so he's no longer with us that was younger years his idol was Buddy Rich one of the baddest jazz percussion drum players ever too he was doing that in honor a Buddy Rich
Sure, it's stiff. That's what made Neil such a great, solid, metronomic drummer. But it's in opposition to what this type of music requires. Kudos to him for attempting it. He did it better than Buddy would have done in RUSH.
@@NelsonMontana1234 used who? Niel? I'm not denouncing his jazz drumming. As in my opinion nobody did it better than Niel !! So I'm my mind your statement is confusing
I was ready to jump to criticize you. But I went back and listened to BR on the same piece. You’re absolutely right. There’s a smoothness with Buddy that’s not there with Neil. Peart does a heck of a job on the solo. Masterful. But it’s missing the touch of a master jazz drummer.
@@enricomandragona163 As I said, he approached a big band piece like a rock drummer. No swing whatsoever. But, decent try. Neil did his own thing best. This was just not his thing.
plenty of snare comping throughout... but he clearly held back until getting closer to the solo break where he really started to play more. Also, he was trying to play traditional grip until he got really into the solo, which was never his forte
@@skylerJ777 “new age contemporary metal?” What? that’s not at all what they are, they’re one of the groups to pioneer the genre of prog rock. Also, talent and music definitely go hand in hand.

That bass player deserves a round of applause. He's been talking that thing for a walk.
To be a rock drummer and come in here and play like this? Mad fn respect Neil was a badass dont care what anyone thinks

Kudo's!!
To go from Rock to the BR is a giant step; NP pulled off and I see that other musicians appreciated Neil’s leap; he made it, hear the crowd.
RIP Niel peart an amazing around musician not just one of the Greatest drummers to have graced us with his talent
Love the reaction when he hits those cow bells
that guy with granny hair behind the drummer was really happy watching him play
*Virtual standing ovation* , for the baddest drummer to EVER allow us to listen.

OH MAN......... NEIL IS ABSOLUT UNBELIEVABLE.........
HE IS THE KING CLASS OF DRUMMING....... THANK YOU FOR YOUR MUSIC.
R.I.P Mr Peart , best drummer to ever have lived.
feels weird seeing Neil with such a minimalistic kit. (looking at you Exit Stage Left)
One of my favorites.
This just makes me smile❤

All the worlds a stage....and then some..thank you Neil.. semper fi..
Hadn't heard this recently.
I forgot how much fun it is.
Saw him do this live when I was a kid. They did Cotton Tail but there was no band.
The Master! 👊😎✊😎👍😎🍁 RIP Neal Peart 😔🍁♈🍁♈
Damn that was crazy
I love you video
You have to remember Neil and Buddy were friends.
I love how he plays the first part until the solo completely straight, perfect, machine like, but only just very very slightly doing anything remotely creative or showy.... and then solo until the last hit of the song it's all out awesome, combining many of his greatest creative ideas into one masterpiece
The greatest rock drummer of all time.
Still number 3 of the Ps
Neil is the show.
The tempo is so fast! I love it! The BRB complained that everyone too slow so Neil sped it up a bit, love him!
Neil loved Buddy. He’s built off Buddy, and others, and really took it to another level. Half the stuff pro drummers were probably invented or modified by Neil, lol! 😂

Aye, well missed
One of my fav Pearts performances. Buddy's got some serious chops.(no pun intended).
Just plain amazing
You're up right after Neil's solo.
...Sir? Hello?
On a serious note I can't remember ever seeing anyone play a clear batter head on a snare
One of the greatest drummer in the world 🥁🎵🎶🥁😃 Rock, Jazz and everything 😁🥁🥁🥁
This guy is good. He should be in a band. JK XD
He was in a band he was in one of the baddest bands ever he was Neil Peart the drummer for Rush but he passed away here recently so he's no longer with us that was younger years his idol was Buddy Rich one of the baddest jazz percussion drum players ever too he was doing that in honor a Buddy Rich
It would have been strange only hitting 4 drums, compared to his normal set up.
A clear batter snare head..
I wonder if Neil and Buddy ever met each other...
Great drummer, song writer, producer, Guy, did I leave anything out?
And a motor cycle driver 😎
Sure, it's stiff. That's what made Neil such a great, solid, metronomic drummer. But it's in opposition to what this type of music requires. Kudos to him for attempting it. He did it better than Buddy would have done in RUSH.
Yes, totally agree..
I'm not in agreement with you! !! Niel was simply the best Drummer in the world hands down!! No matter what type of music!!

Go back to the shallow end of the pool

He loved the music of Frank Sinatra. Old school swing and jazz besides rock (book : ghost rider)
I have never seen Neil behind a smaller kit.
Neils no Buddy but he's brilliant
"Where are the rest of my toms?"
Peart with Buddy Rich’s band… soooo hot
Think the bass plsyer is even more impressive.
He could have easily played a young Slugworth
Now take Buddy Rich and ask him to cover Rush songs on drums.
He’d be lost.
Great point!
You've got to be kidding, lol!
Neil was great at what he did. This was out of his comfort zone; he had no sense of swing for this style music. It took courage to try.
To try!! Seriously!! Hmmm you give it a shot!!
Seems to me that he did pretty damn well!
@@johnnyboy55 agreed
@@enricomandragona163 As I said, he approached a big band piece like a rock drummer. No swing whatsoever. But, decent try. Neil did his own thing best. This was just not his thing.
@@U2WB Decent try!! Yeah whatever 🤣
Never even broke sweat
Jazz drumming without snare comping is … odd to put it mildly.
Gotta pop that corn if it’s gonna be jazz.
plenty of snare comping throughout... but he clearly held back until getting closer to the solo break where he really started to play more.
Also, he was trying to play traditional grip until he got really into the solo, which was never his forte
You seem to want to argue here because a progressive rock drummer does it better than a jazz drummer!!
7:50 😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 AS A DRUMMER THAT SHIT WAS TO SEXY
you can age neil by the size of his drum kit :)
Neil was a much nicer person! Buddy treated people like yit
Wake up,
Buddy would of smiled
😂😂😂😂😂😂
How’s does one suck so badly as Rush. But here dudes pretty okay! Neil is his name?
Rush definitely isn’t for everybody. No way in hell you’re able to sit there and say they suck though. That’s just painfully incorrect.
@@TanMann23 it’s new age contemporary metal… come on. Talent and music doesn’t always go hand in hand
