The solo I heard him play with Motorhead still sends shivers through me all these years later. Love the way this solo is so different in character from the one I saw with Motorhead. Just shows how epic he is. Top top drummer!
Hello there clueless.,...... He was the drummer and Motorhead amongst others. Please do a little rock and roll research before you put your moronic comment out there..... Hee Haw
@@frankgarcia918 Mikkey DEE's work on those four (4) KING DIAMOND studio albums is LEGENDARY. Mr. DEE is one of the most talented rock drummers, along with Steve SMITH (JOURNEY/VITAL INFORMATION) and Thomas LANG.
Saw him play for Motörhead opening for Dio @ Cain’s Ballroom. I took cigarettes and stuffed them in my ears so I could enjoy the show . Very loud drummer.
He’s a beast of a drummer one of the all time greats! My friend knows him personally and he’s a beast of a party animal too ,after a show he stays out till morning having a great time .
Never fails...people in the comments putting the solo down never seem to have videos of themselves doing better🤔 Just stf up already. We get it, youre better and look better doing it. Youre parents are so very proud and so are we. 'atta boy!
I tend to watch a lot of the guitar videos/genre , and know exactly what you mean - it’s nauseating. I look at it like this: music is artistic expression, not a fucking football game. Sure there are levels, but it’s about what YOU like. I live technically advanced musicianship as much as I love good , simple Rock N Roll etc. There’s no competition I’m aware of. I can listen to Larry Carlton as intently as I do Angus Young - they both move me, musically.
@@hazor777 same here. I can listen to a technically simple solo like George Harrison on “Something” where it fits perfectly, or Eddie Van Halen on “Hot For Teacher” and be moved also.
I honestly have never that I can remember listening to any of Motorheads music. Understand I'm 57 and until a couple years ago just started listening to newly noticed bands and expanded into some well known Metal/Rock groups. I recently seen 5FDP in Charlotte NC. This drummer is awesome! Can anyone please fill me in on some of the great originals in the band whom have sadly passed? Losing my 35yr old son almost 2yrs ago from a massive heart attack in his sleep is what got me to giving a lot a bands a try. Music and finally 8 concerts has helped me so much to deal with his sudden death. The only blood family I have left is my youngest son he's 30 now. So anyhow in my teen years the what I thought was metal was AC/DC, Alice Cooper and Ozzy. So someone please fill me in I don't know when this drum solo actually took place....I would appreciate it so much! Thank you to whoever may read this and help me understand the band more. God Bless all! And remember always be kind especially to those you love as you never know when they may leave us. Love to all!
I wish I could help you but I don't even know any metal bands at all. So sorry about your Son and all your losses. I am a sixties and seventies guy even though I grew up in the eighties. Still love Rush, Deep Purple, and Zeppelin though. Oh, and a youngster steered me to an Irish band called Floggin' Molly...love them too.
Tous les album de motorhead sont géniaux,certains plus que d’autres.je suis un inconditionnel depuis que le groupe est né.j’écoute l’orsque j’ai pas le moral ou que je suis fatigué.j’ai 66 ans je ne m’en lasse pas.je suis tombé dans la marmite.courage à toi et ta famille.
Check out his solo on King Diamond live 1986 full show on here. THATS the best drum solo I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen solos from Bonham, Moon, Rich, Portnoy, etc, But man that Mickey Dee solo from 1986 is thee best solo I’ve ever seen. Although it is all about opinions So You might not feel the same as me, Doesn’t make anyone right or wrong lol
This guy compares to many of the greats......passed on and still alive....Tommy Aldrige....Mike P. i love Motorhead and Scorps....but King Diamond.......nothing to write home about.Keep it rockin Mikkey Dee
One of the things that I love about his playing is that his left foot is always keeping time on the hihat. So many rock drummers today keep their left foot on the left bass drum pedal and do nothing with it. Speed and thrash as well. Keeping time with the hats is becoming a lost art. Kudos, Mikkey! 6:25
@@orvil9223It just depends on how much work you want to put into the learning of the patterns. I used to do it. However, it took a lot of work to get there.
@@shanegriffin2215 Lol, most of the tunes I'm talking about it would knock you out of time trying to flip back and forth from double bass to hihat. Believe it or not, you can reach a level where it's not necessary to keep time on the hihat, especially when you have a clicktrack in your ear, or, you're just that damn good.
Still doing his motorhead solo with a few different fills here and there. I love this dude's drumming and his Paiste power ride always sounds AMAZING. As a drummer myself I totally borrowed and incoporate his R-l-r-L R-l-r-L snare roll groove with the double bass whenever I play infront of people.. always seems to amaze the people watching me every time lol. I even used it when I was in the guitar center drum off competition. Thank you Mikkey. 🥁🤘🏾
Best drummer in the world such a hard hitter and still gives the young drummers a run for their money stamina wise, he keeps his solo performance engaging its well put together, a lot of it is taken from his motorhead days but its a nice subtle tribute to lemmy in my opinion. Hail Mikkey Dee.
Legendary would be people who will from the 60s like Ginger Baker who was from cream with the double bass drum and no extra show you people don't even know who the real drummer is even John Bonham from led Zeppelin and from the rolling Stones the drummer Charlie Watts those are icon legendaries
I never even heard of the drummer Mikkey Dee, until I saw this video of him. What I can say is that he is in the same league as Ringo Starr, Charlie Watts, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Neil Peart, Buddy Rich, and who else have you. His drumming ability is nothing short of phenomenal. I hope to see more videos of Mikkey Dee to come.
He's so goddamn good and so goddamn lovable. I regret only having been able to see Motörhead once, but during "Overkill" he looked right at me and asked "one more time?", I screamed "one more time!" back so hard I lost my voice for a couple days.
Classic arena style drum solo played super awesome. Reminds me of Tommy Aldridge, Randy Castillo, and Alex Van Halen. I love the power chords and band involvement at the end.
Haha wow...freaking awesome. I remember when u were hanging with King...then on to Motorhead. I'm sure there were probably others but that cones to mind right now. Soooo soooo many good songs. Been listening to ur stuff for alot of years, keep it up as long as possible my friend. And definitely watch ur health. We have to learn from our past. Still hoping to be able to see u live b4 the world falls apart. Good luck my friend
No he isn't a living legend are you kidding me a living legend is Ginger Baker from cream with Jack Bruce and Eric Clapton he was the first one to have the first double-foot base drum and did a half an hour solo on the drums on the song called toad at the Fillmore East 1969 Ginger Baker is a icon and a legend this guy is nothing gingerbreaker died last year 80 years old still playing the drums and played with the best of the drummers in Africa
And besides a living legend the foot pedals in 1969 on like the foot pedals today now they got double triple fucking beats and fast beats they didn't have that everything was mechanically one fucking foot pedal to the to the drum so we had two drums and two foot pedals this guy's got six pedals one pedal with three fucking drum beats on it on each one don't get it twisted that's what the new generation has like they're making some fast moves on the trunks no they're cheating every one of these clowns not like the mulsic from the 60s and 70s a

Met micky after a motorhead gig in mpls. It was shortly after king diamond had his back surgery. I asked him how king was doing. He looked me dead in the eye, smurked then replied "i dont fucking know!!". Lmao
Mikkey Dee !! Great Sounding Kit and Cymbals... Mikkey Dee, A true Road Warrior for many, many years... The Best.
Установка действительно настроена великолепно! И ударник великолепен!
This guy is just a complete force of nature. Wonderful drummer.
In my humble opinion, one of .. if not the greatest metal drummer around.
Mikkey Dee du är den bästa trummisen i hela världen.

@Joe Silva ~ undeniable sound 💯
Mikkey Dee is by far the best drummer the scorpions have ever had in my opinion
In my list of my top ten hard rock /metal drummers, Mikkey Dee is one of them.
Dude please tell me you don’t play an instrument
Quiet embarrassing as a drummer to hear this

I thought he made a good choice, if you think you can do better, list your Top 10 below
Great capture of the legendary Dee
Mikey’s work on the King Diamond “Abigail” album is just incredible!
I was surprised to see Micky playing for mh after king diamond,
Yes indeed, one of the best albums ever written.
Truly incredible. Plays swings like Ginger, but within an intricate metal style.
Yes it is- truly amazing!!!
I've been a fan of Mikkeys drumming ever since I first heard him with King Diamond

100% the guy is awesome
First time hearing this guy was on Abigail. From there I was hooked. King Diamond's had some good drummers since, but nothing compares to Mikkey Dee.
Any drummer that Lenny loves has to be good
Simply amazing he still has it king still has it the whole band etc
Same here. THEM is incredible, my favorite KD album. Mikkey Dee is my all time favorite, hands down.
Same
Ain’t no John bottom
One of the greatest drummers out there. Saw him with with King Diamond. His best work.

Apparently you never seen some real good band's you still liking Junior high😅
He gave a great solo at Scorpions concert the other night. Great drummer
Definitely hearing a little Peart in there…fun solo to watch!!
Been a fan of the Dee since Motorhead's 1993 release, Bastards. Best I've heard since the late, great Clive Burr.
I've seen mickey with 4 other bands and his solos were always dope asf
Great sounding kit and solo!
He kicked ass in King Diamond.
Hes having a big Mac attack !..nice job son
I've always loved chrome kits, ever since I saw Mick Tucker's one from the Sweet. That shining silver looks soooo cool.
Nice rock n roll exercise. All my joints ache now. Gene Krupa would have smiled with the floor tom activity.
Classic arena style drum solo played super awesome. Reminds me of Tommy Aldridge, Randy Castillo, and Alex Van Halen. I love the power chords and band involvement at the end.
Seen him once with King Diamond and 5 Times with Lemmy & Motorhead.
He made the Scorpions Cool Again.
Definitely some YYZ influence the first 2 minutes. Beast of a drummer.
In my head I kept hearing Neil’s xylophone sound.
To me, it was more like the ATWAS Working Man solo. It's obvious that Mikey listened to that a LOT! RIP Mr. Peart.
Mad respect! So good...
Wow 👏 he's definitely one of the best easily !!!
Herman Rarebell,Jame Kottak,Micky Dee best of drummer from Scorpions 🤘💝🔥
Absolute legend.
