This short excerpt seems to be from the same interview. I wonder if there's more of the video.






And omg, THIS! 1986 Vinnie. I remember hearing this 20 years ago and have been waiting to hear it again ever since but never knew what it was called. Unbelievable playing.




Transcription below is spot on, and I've quoted from an old post.

yeah on that Bill Meyers [all the LA cats on that date] album...back in the day, i found this one 16 bar trading section in Voyager that is just NUTs and transcribed it. the fills start at 4:14 and it is complete BEAST MODE. Vinnie's speed, power & flams here is crazy. i might even say un-repeatable:

Wow, that Bill Meyers tune is superb.
Talking about loops...
Revisiting this grooves-loops collection I did from Vinnie and his "unboxing new Gretch drums" !!

Digitally recorded, live to two tracks.

So he played that in one take with that huge band. Crazy.

Vinnie will be taking part in this in case anyone is interested in electronic drum stuff.

I don't know, but to me they still sound like shit.
