ooohhh I gotta watch that interview ^^.
Omar was a huge influence when he was with Sting. Seeing the I Burn For You drum solo really messed with young me.

Re: Omar Hakim interview
I remember seeing this as a teenaged drummer and knowing I was seeing some incredible stuff, but with absolutely no idea what was going on. He had an amazing solo.
This was also really cool, I forget what channel Rockschool used to be on, probably PBS. Bring Rockschool back...well, we do have Youtube with millions of instructional vids on how to play guitar without knowing music theory...

Re: Omar Hakim interview
Omar was a monster from the beginning. His "I Burn For You" solo on Bring On The Night was a seminal moment for me in '85, right around the time I discovered Vinnie on Zappa's Tinseltown Rebellion. That moved me from my Kansas/Yes/Rush phase into Jazz/Fusion stuff.
