Gavin is what happens when your drum teacher tells you to practice, and you practice. A lot 🎉🎉🎉🎉
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
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’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.
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!
I could watch him play all day long
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 ❤
@@WillieBrown4AG 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
Gavin always fits the song, yet is always unmistakably Gavin. Thanks for a great morning jam!
Gavin!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gavin is fantastic, absolut monster drummer!!! Noooiiizzzxxxsss 🤘
Couldn't agree more!
@@VicFirthCompanywe need more!!!
Gavin and Danny Carey videos we need more 🙏🙏🙏
So mucho control here , a work of art ❤
Unbelievable Musician ...I feel one of the most innovative Drummers around today. Awesome playing on an awesome Album.
Whenever I want my brain to simultaneously hurt and be inspired to play drums, I watch a Gavin Harrison video.
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 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?
Been a fan going back to his porcupine tree days! Can you believe this man is 60 years old?! Amazing!
Yes.
Master, oh my master! ❤
Such smooth drumming! Amazing control!!!
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!
Still the perfect modern drummer prototype to me.
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
Pineapple Thief's It leads to this is the best album released in 2024 so far
I have Gavin on speedclick.
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.
Don't exaggerate! He's basically keep a 4/4 beat.
@@manco828I hope you are joking lol
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 !!
best drummer on the planet, right there !!!!
Nah
One of the best, there's no best
Surgical precision! One of my all time favorite drummers! 🤘
Master of the ghost notes
Elegant flow, so to speak. Sophisticated, yet groovy. Not many can do it.
Not even one stroke is wasted. Absolute monster!
I love how he 5s on 4 / Not sure if I am correct. Nonetheless his polyrhythms are always so soothing and fluid
This is even better LIVE!
WoW, super génial, j’adore !❤
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
yeaahhhh!!!
Perfection in execution
I just saw him playing this song in Barcelona, Apolo. No words, certainly!
This man is a genius… God save King Gavin 👑
That fill at 3:56 makes my day.
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
The album is great.
Solid!!! Nailing it!! Cheers!;-)!!
Bit more practice ...this lad could go far......😋😋
🙏
Saw this live Tuesday. Incredible!
long Life ... Gavin H 🔥💡🎶🥁💝
Always learn something watching Gav. Awesome player
Don’t think I’ve ever seen him play a straight 4/4 groove before! Amazing performance!
Such an amazing composition all around. The entire album is just fantastic!!
Thank you Pineapple Thief for creating such a masterpiece for my ears!!!
Such a clean ,crisp sound. Every nuance. Love it!
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.
Nice 5/4 verses
Almost as if a songwriter invaded an absolutely ridiculous drummer. His parts are f'in perfect.
£2 million pounds or be able to play like Gavin Harrison ???
Absolutely love you, Gavin!
Taste and precision.
Gavin Harrison great master.
Astonishing ❤
One of the best drummers in the world
Gavin is an incredible drummer. Effortlessly switching from subtle and intricate to hard and heavy with crisp precision. A true professional powerhouse.
Bello/Magnifico.💪💪💪💪💪💪👑
Any song Gavin plays turn into to pure gold!
fantastic.
Absolutely Wonderful! 👊🥁
Stunning!
The most ANGEL SOUND snare i've ever hear.
For a guy who claims he never liked Progressive Rock, he sure plays in a lot of Progressive Rock bands.
I can't judge. I've never liked it either, but because of Gavin's approach I'm loving and listening to prog all the time. And I had no idea of that statement of his haha. Maybe most prog lacks what he contributes with?
Seen him play with Crimson, he was flawless. Beast!
Perfect !!!
è straordinario. la batteria è una partitura intera. Fantastico
That was Awesome ❣️ Gavin is such a great drummer.
Had the privilege of meeting this guy at his home a few years ago unfortunately didn't realise how awesome he actually was
god-like snare tone
Cheers!
What a sticking level! 🔥
Pure technique.
Outstanding as always
He plays so elegantly too. He’s also lovely to watch playing.
The definition of class behind and in front of the kit.
Tastefully done as always.
That snare ! 🔥🔥🔥
Currently my favorite drummer BY FAR. This tune is kinda like Tool & Coldplay collaborating 🤣
2:00 - 2:10
👏👏👏👏👏 Oooole!!
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).
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.
Holy shit, the inspiration i feel when watching Gavin play is over the top!
Gavin Harrison and Matt Garstka are two of the most incredible drummers I've ever seen.
His sound always amaze me....his snare sound 😊....20 snarewires and he cuts off 6 on both side and still an amazing sound 😊..if I am correct. He told to get less buzz. I only get no buzz Wenn cutting them all off 😂
Wow very Katatonia-ish vibes, and well, what concepts can we add to describe the mastery of doctor Harrison...
🙌🌟
Vic Firth post Videos of Gavin and Danny Carey. What else can a brand asks for on talking about the legends that use their products?
He still has the greatest drum tone I have ever heard in all of my years
Although I am still not a fan of sonor I just don’t feel his drums project or have enough warmth and body. That’s just my opinion not saying it’s right.
if only the lyrics and the songwriting were half as good as Gavin...
so tasteful.
Can you tell Gavin to do some PT performances please
@3:56 made me watch it a dozen times. So smooth with it!
Same!! Two groups of 5 and then a 6??
Fantastic. 👍👍
Grande in tutto
Dude looks like he’s 35 lol. Crazy!
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!👍👍👍
Perfection manifests itself in various forms and ways. Gavin's performances on drums are one of them.
Absolute king. No busyness for its own sake yet still has master chops.
Harrison continues to amaze and impress. His drumming is the epitome of exquisite nicety. Bravo!
