This video has it all. A drummer in the audience committing suicide at 1:09. Clave off of the left foot. French national anthem ON TOMS at 3:02. Pat admiring his new rhythm toy at 4:08. Antonio is just sick.
saw this concert in Seattle and the drum solo was so good it unexpectedly choked me up and I was holding back tears of joy...unbelievable...never forget it.
Antonio Sanchez is the best drummer ever to burst onto the scene since Dave Weckl in terms of making an impact with jaw dropping playing & unbelievable showmanship.
I tell my friends he was the best drummer I've ever seen live. His rhythm is off the charts. I was so glad Pat wasn't one to jump all over the place. He stood next to Antonio most of the show and I couldn't decide who to watch so I was relatively easy to go back and forth.
....¨Since his move to New York City Antonio has become one of the most sought after drummers in the international jazz scene. He has performed and recorded with some of the biggest names in jazz¨..
Hey mr. EQsmooth, this is only a little fraction of Antonio´s review in drummerworld : Antonio Sanchez... Three time Grammy Award winner Antonio Sanchez is considered by many critics and musicians alike as ONE OF THE MOST PROMINENT DRUMMERS OF HIS GENERATION. Born in Mexico City on November 1st, 1971, he started playing drums at the age of 5 and began performing professionally early in his teens.
331 paradiddle you are right. So many talented and unique (new) drummers-Jamire Williams, Chris Dave, Justin Faulkner, Tyshawn Sorey (another one of my faves), Benny Greb. All these guys (and girls-Cindy Blackman) have something to offer in their artistry.
ESTUPENDO HERMANO.. FUERA DE SERIE,TODOS ESTUPENDOS MUSICOS Y EJECUCION RICA, GRACIAS A DIOS UNO DE TANTOS MUSICOS TALENTOSOS QUE SE QUITA LA VENDA Y SE DA CUENTA DE LA GRAN CAPACIDAD QUE EXISTE TAMBIEN EN MEXICO. HOJALÁ QUE SEA EJEMPLO PARA NUESTRA GENTE Y FOMENTE LA CULTURA MUSICAL DE NUESTRO MEXICO QUERIDO.
Just heard of this man - and this playing is a little hard to believe. Where most drummers just bring sweat...this guy evokes an entire mood..so musical. This was so cool.
The drumming on the 3rd track on Avishai Cohen Trio + The International Vamp Band album by Sanchez is AMAZING. I recommend getting the album just for that.
The speed of Dennis chambers, the independence of el Negro Hernandez, and the finesse of Buddy I personally think he´s one of the top 3 drummers in the world right now...
es increible lo que hacen estos cuates claro que a base de estudiar hasta 10 hr diarias y desde que uno alcanza los pedales de niño Antonio Sanchez no tengo palabras en verdad eres un mounstruo en la bateria.
@JoeJacari First of all drumming's no competition, and second of all this video displays more independence, diversity, dynamics, a more complex time signature, and displays more advanced rudiments, than I have ever seen or heard Travis Barker, let alone most other rock drummers muster.
Jeff Tain Watts is perhaps my favorite drummer of all time, but Antonio Sanchez (and Dafnis Prieto) are on their way to becoming legends among drummers under 45. I have Antonio's Instruction video and I watch in amazement again and again. So inspiring and wise. What a genius. Cool as the other side of the pillow. Obviously Dave Weckl is one of the top five drummers of all time. Buddy Rich was transcendent, but not very diverse. These new guys can and have played every style.
yeah, that's jazz of any stripe...controlled chaos..it only Sounds random but it actually captures the expressive moment which is priceless...it's not for everyone, of course, that's why BritanySpears exists!
This guy is just having a great time and that is what it is all about... he is kinda crazy, but tasteful about his insanity...I really love it! That's entertainment.
Antonio Sanchez is just not the greatest Mexican Drummer, but one of the BEST period, in the World. What an INSPIRATION!!!
You could make that case. No wonder one of his main inspirations was Neil Peart.
This video has it all. A drummer in the audience committing suicide at 1:09. Clave off of the left foot. French national anthem ON TOMS at 3:02. Pat admiring his new rhythm toy at 4:08. Antonio is just sick.
Eflatmajor7sharp11 Hilarious review!!!!!!!!!!!
+Eflatmajor7sharp11 underrated
+Eflatmajor7sharp11 "A drummer in the audience committing suicide at 1:09" lolzzz
lol
What are you saying?
Lol at 4:14 even Metheny was loving it. One of the best drummers in the world. The 42 people that disliked this can kick rocks.
saw this concert in Seattle and the drum solo was so good it unexpectedly choked me up and I was holding back tears of joy...unbelievable...never forget it.
Antonio Sanchez is the best drummer ever to burst onto the scene since Dave Weckl in terms of making an impact with jaw dropping playing & unbelievable showmanship.
I just saw the trio last night--Sanchez is inhuman, easily one of the best alive.
Drumming is art. Art isn't competition. But if it were, Antonio would probably win. Wonderful solo!
Most underrated drumer!
Love the shot of Metheny in amazement.
Superlativo
Complejo
Transgresor
Rompe esquemas
Realmente no he visto un Baterista tan autentico como Antonio Sánchez
no sé a los demás, pero a mi este tío me apabulla. ERES UN MOUNSTRUO ANTOÑITO...
VIVA MEXICO....
WHO dislikes such a solo😡
I tell my friends he was the best drummer I've ever seen live. His rhythm is off the charts. I was so glad Pat wasn't one to jump all over the place. He stood next to Antonio most of the show and I couldn't decide who to watch so I was relatively easy to go back and forth.
Antonio Sánchez sos increíble!. Lo mejor que escucho en años!. Sos un genio!.
....¨Since his move to New York City Antonio has become one of the most sought after drummers in the international jazz scene. He has performed and recorded with some of the biggest names in jazz¨..

And that my friends, is what they call "Extreme Independence" :-)
Es un solo de batería impresionante. Sus golpes en las tarolas me impresionan: golpea en lugares diferentes sacando partido de la percusión.

It's doesn't get any better than this...beautiful tuned and sounding drums and Zildjians.. Bellissimo!
ORGULLOSAMENTE MEXICANO!!!!!! ANTONIO SANCHEZ
Proof that a human (albeit superhuman) can have simultaneous full independent control of all 4 limbs.
ESTUPENDO HERMANO..

@JoeJacari First of all drumming's no competition, and second of all this video displays more independence, diversity, dynamics, a more complex time signature, and displays more advanced rudiments, than I have ever seen or heard Travis Barker, let alone most other rock drummers muster.
Man, that's a big ass ride!!! Great solo.
wow that was the greatest thing i have ever seen
Just posted our latest video of Antonio live at Scullers in Boston. He opens the show with a sick 5 min drum solo. Tremendous.
Metheny is an institution. He´s a genius. And this performance shows why he chose Sánchez...
unbelievable
WOW WOW WOW AMAZAING like it
That....was amazing.
Chills going down my back.
Antonio Sanchez pura fuerza latina
1:09 -->"AAAAAAAAAAAH!"
