This is great stuff, thanks. I was thinking more about album recommendations, for students to play along to and start to understand the feel of different player's interpretations of the ride cymbal beat. Anything with Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie Orchestra is a good place for a beginner to lea...

Here's another version that hasn't been copyright removed yet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YzOZZYRUFM I can't believe Mike left DT, he was one of my earliest drumming influences and checking him out led to me discovering other great drummers. I was way behind the news on that one and only found ...

Well played Steve!! That was groovin!

Has anyone ever used the AKG 141 http://www.akg.com/mediendatenbank2/pspic/image//87/image1079364380_K141studio4055cb1bb6559.jpg OR AKG 141 MKII http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41pcmoe0CqL._SL500_AA300_.jpg I've seen many drummers and other studio players wearing these and I need to replace my...

Hey SP -long time no post?? I agree about the full show - only worth it for the glimpses of a grooving Vinnie (and Neil S of course!) Nice to see you around again. :D Hey! Thanks John, it's good to be roaming these forums again. I've been at uni in Bristol the last three years so I've haven't reall...

Yeah I'm not sure which one I have either, but there are definitely recordings from a couple of different nights. The one I posted is definitely the rarer one that seemed to appear in the infamous Traditional Grip movie that Steve made.

Thanks for sharing Steve, loved the playing. It's good to see you guys are still going strong. For those of your that don't own the 3 Altered CDs, go get them now!!

Hi Henrik, I found this upon further investigation: http://dangerous.softarchive.net/don_randi__the_baked_potato_band.124275.html however, this record does not seem to contain the track that you posted above although it does have a track called two brothers. The drummer credited on this one is John ...

Thanks for sharing! There's some awesome playing by Toss on the tune "I'm Buzzed" by Michael Landau from his "Live 2000" CD.

MD did a transcription of this a while back. The last Vinnie one always slays me. Pretty ridiculous phrasing. Steve, do you happen to know which issue of MD it appeared in, I haven't bought MD since the magazine since the last time Vinnie was on the cover! If anyone hasn't checked it out, here is t...
