No words, he's 60 years old and plays with the attitude and heaviness of a 20 years old, combine it with the wisdom and good taste he developed over the decades.. he's the dude I wanna be at 60 haha
Gavin is an incredible drummer. Effortlessly switching from subtle and intricate to hard and heavy with crisp precision. A true professional powerhouse.
Whenever I am in a low point or have no inspiration to play drums or music, I throw Gavin on - always inspires me to keep playing and stick with it. I know I'll never get to that level at my age (51) but I can sure try and get that much better in the process!!!
Gavin's finesse and execution of his parts is one thing, his composition of those parts is another. Every note thought out and calculated, every phrase musical and perfectly placed. His parts are so interesting, yet so integral and supportive of the song.
I have many drummers I love man...even a top 5 list...but Gavin is my favorite drummer to listen to ...sonically beautiful...his drum arrangements and compositions are to my ear very unique ...masterful
Gavin is a stunning drummer! His approach is musical and cerebral with an accuracy that astounds many top drummers! And boy does he belt his cymbals hard!
Playing the drums - basically nothing more than emotional mathematics... but this is so magnificent that it takes my breath away every time. The precision with which the ghost notes are played is unbelievable. The creativity and playful ease with which G.H. plays the drums is out of this world.
Always a delight to see Gavin Harrison play. One of my best drummers. Groove and finesse. The sound of his Protean snare its amazing. Thank you VicFirth for the video !!
Gavin, thank you. Love seeing you at work. Such a great inspiration for all of us aspiring drummers, lapsed and returning to the kit after years away. Love the music. Saw you with PT in LA last year. Hope to see you guys back in California. Cheers
My goodness, this is so pleasing to listen to. Gavin is freakin' locked in, clean and creative. I love his always-consistent repetition throughout tempo bars, but always with a subtle change (which also repeats from time to time).
I had never heard of Gavin I am 67 years old and have been drumming since I was seventeen. I have been influenced by several drummers but I think Gavin is fantastic because he plays the drums so well. I have been playing in a cover band for forty years now and have performed drum solo under the influence of Gavin and that was a great success thanks to Gavin!👍👍👍
geniale, la sua versione delle parti di batteria E' LA VERSIONE MADRE DI TUTTE!!! Pulito, groove a gogo, confortable, dinamiche bellissime, gusto sopraffine...lui è il top!
I’ve never really been able to put a tangible reason why Gavin Harrison is my favourite drummer until very recently… I’ve been listening to loads of drum solos and live performances of late and the penny dropped. If you take away all the visual theatrics (I love Peart by the way ) and just listen to the tempo and timing … Gavin is without equal … there is no tempo swing whatsoever! He is drummings atomic clock! Then add back in his inventiveness, speed, dynamics and feel… and he’s unrivalled.
Gavin is my inspiration. He absolutely is number one in my mind. Slightly bumped Danny Carey, but only because Gavin’s grooves are just too damn tasty. Absolute savage and genius behind a kit.
I would kill to play with a drummer like Gavin. At leads to this is an amazing album btw! Curious if somthing else this year can beat it for me. Maybe new Opeth album?

he's 60!?
I thought he was like 45!
@@nuberiffic yes!
@@alexis.jacobo.drums14 I'll have what he's having lol
No words? You wrote an entire paragraph.
Have you tried his sticks, they are heavy as fuck but great to play 😅
I could watch him play all day long
Gavin's playing is like an ASMR. It's on another level. The feel, dynamics and his creativity is just sublime.
Consistently my favourite drummer. A perfect blend of taste, subtlety, chops, groove, and incredible drum tuning/recording to top it all off.
He's responsible for orchestrating the intricate 3-part drum orchestrations in latter-day King Crimson.
definitely!
Gavin!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gavin always fits the song, yet is always unmistakably Gavin. Thanks for a great morning jam!
Master, oh my master! ❤
Been a fan going back to his porcupine tree days! Can you believe this man is 60 years old?! Amazing!
Yes.
Unbelievable Musician ...I feel one of the most innovative Drummers around today. Awesome playing on an awesome Album.
Gavin is fantastic, absolut monster drummer!!! Noooiiizzzxxxsss 🤘
Couldn't agree more!
@@VicFirthCompanywe need more!!!

Surgical precision! One of my all time favorite drummers! 🤘
Any song Gavin plays turn into to pure gold!

Don't exaggerate! He's basically keep a 4/4 beat.

Smooth, tasty, effortless. Gavin is a top notch pro. Best sounding kit in the business as well. (Subjective)
Agreed. His floor drum tone is rivaled only by that of Benny Greb.
But, damn, is Gavin’s playing perfectly fluid and smooth.
Both Sonor players, so that def tracks ❤
@@LastCupOfSorrow-1 I was thinking the same thing immediately after making that comment.
@@a.s.henderson483 nothing beats German engineering 😂
Sin duda alguna, está a otro nivel
2:42. This man is just too good. The little subtleties that he adds to his drumming is tasty beyond reason. GOAT
GOAT doesn't exist
I've just commented that and then came across your comment haha
He plays so elegantly too. He’s also lovely to watch playing.
Such a clean ,crisp sound. Every nuance. Love it!
Elegant flow, so to speak. Sophisticated, yet groovy. Not many can do it.
Such smooth drumming! Amazing control!!!

Such an amazing composition all around. The entire album is just fantastic!!
Thank you Pineapple Thief for creating such a masterpiece for my ears!!!
Gavin is so good. one of the greats
Always learn something watching Gav. Awesome player
Gavin and Danny Carey videos we need more 🙏🙏🙏
So mucho control here , a work of art ❤
The definition of class behind and in front of the kit.
Gavin, thank you.
Love seeing you at work.
Such a great inspiration for all of us aspiring drummers, lapsed and returning to the kit after years away.
Love the music. Saw you with PT in LA last year. Hope to see you guys back in California.
Cheers
Perfection in execution
Harrison continues to amaze and impress. His drumming is the epitome of exquisite nicety. Bravo!
WoW, super génial, j’adore !❤
This is even better LIVE!
My goodness, this is so pleasing to listen to. Gavin is freakin' locked in, clean and creative. I love his always-consistent repetition throughout tempo bars, but always with a subtle change (which also repeats from time to time).
Saw this live Tuesday. Incredible!
Absolutely Wonderful! 👊🥁
Astonishing ❤
Whenever I want my brain to simultaneously hurt and be inspired to play drums, I watch a Gavin Harrison video.
Perfection manifests itself in various forms and ways. Gavin's performances on drums are one of them.
è straordinario. la batteria è una partitura intera. Fantastico
best drummer on the planet, right there !!!!
Nah
One of the best, there's no best
Perfect !!!
Master of the ghost notes
The most ANGEL SOUND snare i've ever hear.
Stunning!
I just saw him playing this song in Barcelona, Apolo. No words, certainly!
Had the privilege of meeting this guy at his home a few years ago unfortunately didn't realise how awesome he actually was
Don’t think I’ve ever seen him play a straight 4/4 groove before! Amazing performance!
Solid!!! Nailing it!! Cheers!;-)!!
Holy shit, the inspiration i feel when watching Gavin play is over the top!
yeaahhhh!!!
That was Awesome ❣️ Gavin is such a great drummer.

One of the best drummers in the world
That fill at 3:56 makes my day.
That snare ! 🔥🔥🔥
Outstanding as always
The reference of reference on drumming. Smooth, groovy, interesting, creative and spot on sound. Gavin is the most inspiring drummer of todays music.
Gavin Harrison great master.
long Life ... Gavin H 🔥💡🎶🥁💝
fantastic.
One of my all time favorite drummers 🤘
Bello/Magnifico.💪💪💪💪💪💪👑
What a sticking level! 🔥
Pure technique.
Absolute king. No busyness for its own sake yet still has master chops.
The album is great.
Gavin Harrison and Matt Garstka are two of the most incredible drummers I've ever seen.
This man is a genius… God save King Gavin 👑
Fantastic. 👍👍
Pure masterclass... just superb as always
@3:56 made me watch it a dozen times. So smooth with it!
Same!! Two groups of 5 and then a 6??
geniale, la sua versione delle parti di batteria E' LA VERSIONE MADRE DI TUTTE!!! Pulito, groove a gogo, confortable, dinamiche bellissime, gusto sopraffine...lui è il top!
Not even one stroke is wasted. Absolute monster!
Gavin is what happens when your drum teacher tells you to practice, and you practice. A lot 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Cheers!
one of the best modern drummer, period.
Tastefully done as always.
Pineapple Thief's It leads to this is the best album released in 2024 so far
Tasteful & musical, not overplayed. You can tell this fella has been around the block a time or two. And the drums sound great! 👌
Outstanding, as ever 👌🏻👍🏻
👏👏👏👏👏 Oooole!!
Seen him play with Crimson, he was flawless. Beast!
This is a level of talent very few drummers can reach. And he's showing here just about 3% of his brain's drumming capacity.
Not a drum guy, but Gavin Harrison is my absolute favorite!
What's left to say. Everything Gavin does is simply amazing. I WANT THAT SNARE SOUND lol
god-like snare tone
Sharp touch.... Hellyeahhhh....
