| Hey Dude, of course ... ( 5 days ago by DonPohlino) |
| Hey Dude, of course on one hand it's your opinion and everyone has to respect it but on the other hand you have respect the opinions of others. I think it was the famous bass player called Marcus Miller who once said: "You don't have to be a perfect musician knowing all the theoratical stuff, you know you did it when one hears 3 notes of you and directly knows: thats you!" True words because you can define sting just by hearing his voice for a short time, or even more obvious james brown... |

| and that is what makes these musicians famous and easy to identify. Now considering what a drummer can change you surely will get to the choise of drums and cymbals (colaiuta with his splashes, gadd with his drums nearly sounding like hitting with a hammer in a puddle greets donpohlino |

| donpohlino, good and valid point taken. Using what you have just said, then I can, without problems, say that Gadd is an awful drummer (in my opinion, of course). I find his drumming unsophisticated, he bulshits all the way through his drumming, he is unconvincing and his drums sound awful. I stick to my own previous opinios, Gadd should not have been there with Weckl and Caloiuta |

| vinnie and dave have both said that steve was a big influence on them. gadd is now and will always be on of the legends of drumming. wake up pal. |

| need i remind everybody that these 3 cats could destroy any of us youtubers who play drums as a hobby, these are legends and should not be thought of as people who have drumming flaws, they are all masters of drumming. |
| I'm well awake, ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| I'm well awake, Nitro. And it's called professional courtesy, Nitro. You see it in every profession, the juniors praising their seniors. Could you really imagine Weckl, for example, saying publicly "GADDS DRUMS SOUND LIKE PLANKS OF WOOD"?? No you wouldn't ! |
| Yes, you may remind ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| Yes, you may remind, but not necessarily convince. Of course Gadd influenced all his juniors, like YOU, ME and invariably Weckl and Vinni when they were starting. That does not mean he is on the same level of Weckl and Vinnie. He is obviously good but not as !! That's all I said initially. |
| Holy shit. That was ... ( 4 days ago by sgtanarchy911) |
| Holy shit. That was fucking awesome. I'd have to say though - this kind of set up isn't Gadd's strong area. I'd have to say about even with Dave and Vinnie though. Weckl took it in the beginning, but Vinnie's last few were epic. |

| There's no use in ... ( 4 days ago by legendaryeps) |
| There's no use in doubting the talent or capacities of these three guys. Of course there incredibly good. It's just my taste, and it sounds to me that Weckl and Gadd are playing in the style while Colaiuta is playing on his own. And so I'm not saying his worse than the other two, but just in this piece of music I like the other two more. |
| everyone is ... ( 4 days ago by Nitrodrums75) |
| everyone is entitled to their own opinion but i cant believe u think Gadd is an awful drummer and he bullshits all the way thru his drumming. listen to his band from the 70's called Stuff and his 80's band Gadd Gang. he is a drumming genius. just curious...who do u think should have been up there instead of Gadd? later. |
| Let's see now, I ... ( 4 days ago by LaRocheFoucauld) |
| Let's see now, I have a credibility choice between Steve Gadd, who has played with Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Steely Dan, Al Jarreau, Joe Cocker, Stuff, Bob James, Chick Corea, Eric Clapton, James Taylor, Jim Croce, Eddie Gomez, The Manhattan Transfer, Michal Urbaniak, Steps Ahead, Al Di Meola, Manhattan Jazz Quintet, Richard Tee and many others, and is featured on over 600 albums... and some anonymous, self-important Internet wanker who thinks Gadd is awful. I wonder who I should believe? |
| Considering that ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| Considering that you know me from nowhere, LOL, to call me 'wanker' is a bit strong, you prick! And that list of yours is wow-impressive. Won you the argument. And yes, this "self-important Internet wanker" can probably teach how to drum, you asshole. Watch your language, pal! My opinion remains that Gadd had no place in that trio. He might have played once with God... but does not make him the God that he is obviously is to you, you shit head !! |
| At least you're ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| At least you're civilized, not like that french sounding idiot above you. Who do I think should have been up there instead of Gadd ? You misunderstood me. He might be the third most creative drummer in the world right now but all I said is that the other two are so superior to him that if he is there then he is below them. I can't believe that people do not appreciate Weckl the way he really should be appreciated. That guy isn't a drummer. He is a genius! I can fault any drummer. I can't him. |
| I have listened to ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| I have listened to Gadd a lot. He is very good. I've also listened to the other two and my conclusion remains. Although Vinnie and Gadd are good, Weckl is an under-rated genius. Anyone who plays drums and I suspect all of us here do, knows how difficult it is to be original and creative all the time. To me a solo is your soul coming out of you. So how Gadd could have his drums there sounding that bad puzzles me. |
| Maybe I used the ... ( 4 days ago by traf1852) |
| Maybe I used the wrong terms. I mean to say that Weckl is impeccable in his originality anda creativity, technique, diversity. That's what a genius is to me. Gadd's drumming bores me after awhile and I suspect Vinnie would too. I can listen to Weckl all day. |

| Great, traf182, you made your point, over and over and over again. Nobody cares. It's your opinion, we know it now. You're the big man on campus, the alpha male. The ego has spoken. Thank you. You're right, absolutely right. How could anyone doubt you? How could a bevy of drummers not see it your way? The nerve of us. They are all good drummers, each to his own taste. Let it go and please try to get a grip on the ego trip. Oh no, here comes more....I can smell it. |

| I never said he wasnt, i asked... "what the hell???" Im not a drummer, im a singer, and i might have heard wrong, but it sounded like he was doing roughly the same things each time. I only said that i think i know drum offs... although i prolly dont. and i gave an opinion, I most certainly didnt trash it intentionally {if i did at all, im not sure about that}. I know they are all excellent drummers, but it really did seem like Colaiuta didnt have cthe control the others had. |
| Im not perfect. Get ... ( 2 days ago by rhodesta) |
| Im not perfect. Get over it. and if your going to sigh at me at least add the damn sigh!! Im not acting smart {although i could just post like you did} I have studied music, including percussion. I gave my personal opinion, maybe you should learn more about others before you post crap about them? IT WAS AN OPINION. humans are allowed to have them. GET OVER IT. thankyou. God Bless. |
