It's a crime to not put this song on Spotify.
I never stop loving this even for nearly 40 years. Amazing talent in that room. Sad that Carlos Vega died. Nobody played session drumming like that. What a prodigy. Just watch what he does. Incredible. I've never seen this or heard it before and probably never will in my lifetime with a small kit like that. Jazz time signatures are incredibly difficult as a drummer or any musicians and there are 5 different time signatures in this one.. RIP Carlos V. you certainly deserve it.
Nice‼️‼️😀
There is only one time signature in this song
It's just 4/4 but they dance around the meter with all kinds of syncopations
I’ve see this video many times as I saw many other videos of very good drummers. But what strikes me the most about Carlos Vega was his accuracy, he took it to another level, filled with many sounds and notes this track is perfect. His drum kit is tuned … man!!! to perfection. The sounds out of those toms are tight and so enjoyable.
I heard this in 1988 when I was handed out a VHS tape for demo and right there I was impressed, I knew I had to play drums. RIP Carlos YOU ARE at the very top in my book.
Dave Valentin and Carlos Vega rest in peace 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Man! I bought GRP Live in Session on cassette tape in college back in 1986, and wore this track out until someone had stolen my cassette case along with this tape from my car. Been searching for this version of Oasis for 30+ years, and finally found it tonight… Thank you TH-cam! ❤
Carlos Vega’s groove is so sweet & creative. Made it look and sound effortless. RIP
Almost 40 years later I'm still loving this! Sad that Carlos and Dave are no longer with us.
Never get tired of this music even now.
Thanks God for this gem ❤ in hard times makes me love life . Amazing players , Carlos Vega fckn master 🔥🔥🔥🔥
carlos vega master of masters
Out of this world...!
RIP Carlos Vega. Awesome
His playing was awesome. His kit was fat and punchy to perfection. Unlike other jazzers who used single ply high and tight, he used pinstripes and his kit had balls.
MASTER.
Magicians playing to reach the heavens - miss Dave Valentin, Carlos Vega, ohhhh What a loss to Jazz Fusion...
I never bored to hear this song..👍👍👍
Como soportar la desaparición física de Carlitos Vega y David Valentín. Dos gigantes...que descansen en paz.
Dave Grusin only played with people who could play 'tight' with him. This performance showcases the talent that wanted to play alongside him.
And exactly this makes the specific GRP sound, that was new then and still is unique.
valentin’s play is so bright and shining. i missed him today
Love Carlos Vega! this entire line up is fantastic!. Those Paiste blue label Formula 602`s sound like sonic bliss
Any good album recommendations? I'm just discovering this group of musicians

Yep, but he has a 2oo2 Heavy Hi Hat bottom as can be seen in one shot. The top is also 2oo2. He did like heavier hihats as he had Signatures later that were listed as heavy high hat. The Ride looks much like a Sound Creation. Possibly a Dry ride I heard about. I think that is what he used here. Blue label 602 crashes.
R.I.P. Dave Valentin
I didn't know he'd passed away until I read your comment. =/
l love Dave Valentins playing I try to play like him...hope I get there one day
RIP Carlos Vega. We miss you.
I've loved this track since my dad picked up the CD shortly after it was released over 30 years ago. Carlos' drum playing is so tight yet almost effortless. I'm honestly surprised I've never blown up any speakers or amplifiers playing this because I've played it LOUD so many times over the years!
And if you think the CD is good you should hear this on vinyl LP (yes, GRP used to release vinyl back in the day) ;-) and it is miraculous! Just incredible sound and with a tremendous amount of dynamic SLAM. Carlos Vegaand Dave Valentin totally stole the show with this performance!
I have a few GRP albums, but not this one. The album shouldn't sound any better than CD because this was recorded on a Sony PCM3324 that operated at 44.1 or 48 khz/16 bits. Then to cut it to vinyl you have to make the usual cutting compromises like blending the channels below 100 hz, watch the levels, etc. If they'd recorded to analog tape, the ultimate "high-res" format, they could have cut a killer vinyl album version and many years later gone back and released it in a high-res format too.
I know it shouldn't, but it does. Trust me.
This has been the case 9 times out of 10 with other labels that recorded exclusively in digital such as: Telarc & Delos. If you lived in South Florida I would be all too happy to prove it to you. Cheers!
The late Carlos Vega on drums. Saw him with James Taylor band several times. RIP.
AN AMAZING ALL-STAR BAND!!!!!
me siento privilegiado de haber visto a este genio en México....nunca habrá alguien como el...y además con lee uuuffff!!
maaaan !!! this was 1985 !!!!! if sooooo < carlos vega is pretty outstanding !!!! those chops are so technical, just a year before Elektric Band with Weckl was formed! astounding
may Dave Valentin and Carlos Vega rest in love and peace ... ❤❤
Carlos Vega's interpretation of this tune here is in the same style that Dave Weckl would popularize in the up-coming years. Yet, Carlos makes it look soooooo easy... wonder why he wasn't as well-known and revered as Weckl. (Dave Weckl fan here, no offense intended).
May be Dave was coming up and Carlos was already present. Man, he was such a great musician. RIP Carlos Vega. We drummers owe you so much.
Such a wonderful track.
I wonder after this insanely great performance if they realized just how good this was?
Larry Williams, always the hidden magician.
That was my favorite music track of all-time in (1985)!
So amazing to see theive footage and what great solo's.... 🙏🙏❤
Dj Quik sent me here. Hot damn these dudes get down for reals. Word.
Oasis was Dave Valenting song..
Of course! In Dave Grusin & Lee Ritenour concert ;)
👍 CARLOS VEGA (R.I.P.) KICKING RIGHTEOUS ASS‼️🙂
Excelente precisión de Carlos Vega...
Awesome musicianship.
Difficulty here is mind blowing!!
amazing!
Dave Valentín grandioso... !!!!
Este fue un gran disco,gran reunión de músicos extraordinarios,fantástico Dave,buon anima,!
Masterpiece
The instruments are typical for the mid-80s: The DX7 on top of the synths and Dave plays a CP70 grand piano. Even the drums sound like 1986.
.........................Carlos.................
💕
Carlos Vega was a big drummer
This is so sad
Dave Valentin died 2017z he had a stroke 2011 I think which took his playing. He made decent money but spent it all on youth projects and teaching under Priv youngsters music he had nothing when he suffered couldn’t afford the rent if his apartment! Another stroke and Parkinson’s took him 2017
As well as Carlos!
