I found this short clip years ago, and it contains some of my favorite stuff, from VC. While there are plenty of notes, the accents/hits at :11 pretty much define, for me, why this man is more or less untouchable, overall. ....some of the coolest phrasing in 5, I've heard. I loop the first fifteen seconds or so about a dozen times, each time I pull this one up. Props, to whomever recorded this....

For some reason I never listened carefully to Carl Palmer, I'm not too much 'into' prog rock. When I was watching some ELM video's it reminded me of things Vinnie does. Maybe it is completely by coincidence. I never heard or read anything that suggests VC has been influenced by Carl Palmer.

Someone put up the whole thing as one vid with stick talk, too.

For fans of Vinnie's Zappa work: someone just uploaded this full concert featuring one Vinnie Colaiuta at 23 years young. Enjoy!

Cool. Been waiting for that one.

Nice to see Vinnie in a different setting.

Apologies if this has been posted previously. The creativity. The freedom. He's one of a kind.
