Aaaaamen..... I happened to cross this footage while searching for something else. Then found myself picking up my jaw off the floor. Stuff of legends indeed.

Roy's def slowed down, but that was the best playing I've seen yet, even if it wasn't a drum solo. Sheila E is just messy and unmusical, IMO.
His playing is the absolute shit. Man, awesome.

I think Roy Haynes's solo is my favorite for now. He played ok. I didn't particularly enjoy the first two solos.
And the Vinnie clip from the Buddy Rich tribute is absolutely amazing!! I still listen to it before I go shed.

I don't like Sheila drumming, I prefer her playing percussion, then she's bad ass
Yea -- I think she is better on percussion. She has an interesting family. I really like her father -- and her Uncle Alejandro is one of my favorite singers and songwriters of all time.

Yep the Roy Haynes spot exudes "cool". I want that "Roy Haynes Model" Yamaha copper snare!
I was there at the Wiltern Theater for that Vinnie moment. The only thing better was watching Vinnie, Gadd, and Weckl playing together that same night.
Maybe Letterman will keep this going with a wide variety of drummers...hope so...need Jo Jo Mayer to rip it up...geez, the list is never-ending. Wonder how these drummers were chosen?

Dave used to be funny, weird and edgy and freed from the stupid bonds of a big time gigantic horribly written TV show.
This is from the era when I would sneak down to watch his show.
