Have you ever seen the Joel Rosenblatt solo over the Bill Evans vamp? I would loooove a reaction vid to that. It has *everything*. Incredible dynamics and musicality. Structure and form. Subtlety. Chops. Perfect use of cow bell. Little foot / hand hi hat things that are funky as all hell. It’s just beautiful. th-cam.com/video/Q50Scn6BSrY/w-d-xo.html
The late, great Ralph Perterson!

steve gadd mi clinic openming solo, best one ive heard
Simply fantastic. It’s funny because I always hate it when people ask “who is the best drummer” or magazines are putting up lists of best drummers and all of that, because there were and are sooo many fantastic masters of that instrument. But if I were forced to pick one drummer, and I’d hate to do it, but I guess then it would be Vinnie Colaiuta. Whenever I see or hear him play, I’m deeply impressed with his technique, his versatility (is there anything he can’t play?!), his sense of groove, his feel, his absolute mastery of rhythm and time. The combination of all the things aforementioned always make me think of him as the one talent who seems a little superhuman.
I dicovered this video many years ago, to me this performance is timeless, it blows my mind everytime I watch it. The Band is called Jazz Ministry and the personnel is: Gregg Mathieson on keys, Abraham Laboriel on bass, Michael Landau on guitar, such a killer combo.
Thanks for sharing Roberto!
one of my best friends used to be Gregg's neighbor, Gregg gave me a live cd that was burned of the Jazz Ministry with Vinnie on drums. . . that was my fav CD i think i ever owned. . . cant believe it broke years ago and now I cant find another one
GREATEST drumming video performance of all times, hands down. Vinnie is on a league of his own.
Hard to argue that Jimmy!
Of all times? Ok so you like Vinnie a lot, a lot.
The craziest part is that he could likely sight read this from sheet music.
Vinnie is the man! The guy has no weakness technically. And his sight reading ability...he's off the frigging charts!
You are speaking truth!
This is the opposite of his minimalist approach to playing 7 on Sting's "St. Augustine in Hell" which has a very similar bassline. Incredible, as usual.
There are the great drummers and there there is Vinnie
I agree, 100%!
@@drumqtipsJust incredible the way he phrases over the bar line then manipulates the time.
This insane bass player is the father of Abe Laboriel Jr., who is perhaps best known as Paul McCartney’s drummer in recent years. There’s a great video of father and son playing together in Jazz Ministry on The Drum Channel (run by DW founder Don Lombardi), IIRC.
Those are the kind of guys we studied when I was learning how to play drums in the 80s. Crazy stuff, love it ! Didn't know this song, thanks so much for sharing, just makes me want to play drums...
WOW!!! Thank You for using the video! I’m happy you enjoyed it so much! Every time I see this I hear something new. Other videos from this show are on TH-cam
I remember seeing this video years ago but it was definitely great to get reacquainted with it now and I appreciated your insight in regards to everything that was going on in it. Absolutely magnificent. We owe so much to Vinnie. He's given us a lifetime of inspiration and education and this video is a testament to all of that. You're right, it's impossible to not get all worked up watching this.
Absolutely!!
I love playing with guys who can hold down a groove. As a drummer it gives you so much freedom.
Madness. Absolute madness.
You have taught me to comprehend what I am hearing. Thus I have been able to learn. Thankyou so much.
Awesome David!
So insane. He has such conviction. Thanks for showing that.
Very welcome
HOLY SHIT! That was literally hard to even comprehend how amazing that was
I warned you🤣🤣
Thank you for this review and your explanation of what’s going on. I rarely play in odd time but NOW I’m going to practice in 7!!!!
Let’s goooo Richie💪🏾
Big vs small 7 is 🔥. Life changing concept 🙌🏾🙏🏾
unbelievable man ! sick groove and youre explaining it beautifully. thnks alot.
My pleasure! Vinnie is a beast!!!
Vinny is phenomenal. I love all his work with the late great Jeff Beck. I also love everything Dennis Chambers. And I love everybody who ever played with Miles Davis, Art Blakey, Michael Brecker, Sonny Rollins, Trane, and Branford Marsalis. I also admire the feel and touch of Steve Gadd and the power and emotion of Carmen Apice. And I love your playing and your subtle, thoughtful touch, incredible.
This reaction/breakdown was so great to watch. One of Vinnie’s greatest performances.
Reaction suggestion: that Dave DiCenso video with Two Ton Shoe.
I’ll check it out. Thanks!
Never seen this! Wow!
Epic!!!, greetings!
When I first discovered this video 4 years ago I watched it everyday for like 4 months. I was blown away. There's also a drum transcription of this video out there.
I’ll have to check the transcription out. Thnx
Anyone notice him bang his head on the rack tom at the end when he's "bowing"? It's like the endorphins are rushing so much that he doesn't even feel it. Insane performance!!
Didn’t see that B. Thanks dude
cool catch!
There's a dude who posted in time transcriptions with these Baked Potato Sessions on TH-cam.
He did the same thing seven years earlier with Seven Days (In five) on Sting's Gordon Sumner's Tales. He'll say "It's what Sting wanted". But only because Sting knew he could do that in his sleep.
Thanks for sharing! Thats a great Sting song.
I literally shed tears of joy watching this! thanks for sharing! Also, I really liked your lesson on big 7 and small 7. . . I think your kinda saying think 7/4 or 7/8 right?
Glad you enjoyed it Todd! Yes to your 7/4 to 7/8 comment…kinda:)
JESUS JESUS JESUS!!! 😳😳😳. .. NO BODY BUT!!! 🤪🤪👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🥰🥁☝🏿
AMEN brother!!
I'm a simple man, I see a Vinnie video, I click play
Simple is smart.
Really demigod material my brother!!
You did a really nice job in dissecting VINNIE in 7/8 .
So important to find out how 🤔 !!!!
Yeah, if you can only pick one guy, who else is there but Vinnie? Thank you again for another great vid!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey quincy , vinnie is spinny , damn i just set my drums on fire coz wots the point, il b avin nightmares bout that 2nite,
Great vid as always quincy my friend!!!!! Luv u man!!!!!.
So gnarly. If you don't know who Vinnie is then watch that and THAT'S Vinnie. Ridiculous. Thanks for doing this vid!
Boom!
Keep talkin' Q!
Ha! Will do doc👊🏾
You weren't kidding, Quincy!
Evidentemente... van a pasar años, y seguiremos tratando de analizar las locuras de Vinnie!!!
Yo lo he descubierto ayer con jeff Beck y aún lo estoy flipando. Qué bueno, por favor!!
I had the privilege of being at this venue to watch this group play and I sat behind Vinnie in 2001.
That's awesome! I know it was incredible to see him in this setting so close.
And, as an added bonus the bass player Abe Laboriel’s son Abe Jr showed up. I was able to chat with him outside the club about his recording on Vanessa Carlton’s record. Not long after, he got the Paul McCartney gig.
There are drummers….and then there is Vinnie
The “Ultra 7’s” @16:20🤯
Insane!!!!
Hey Quincy! Love your videos! Can you do a video about how to comp in 6/8?
Yeah, that was the set opener. Lol where did they go from there? Imagine having been there! Quincy, was that a sketch of you on that mug you were drinking from?
Yup that was a sketch. I’ll try and show it clearer in the next video.
@@drumqtips two of my favorite Vinnie albums are Live at the Blue Note Tokyo with Chick and Secrets with Allan Holdsworth.
Yeah…I’ve seen this years ago in the early TH-cam days when they started allowing longer posts. There’s a couple of people who’ve posted this clip. There’s another has a clip of Vinnie in Italy while on tour with Pattituci(Eric merienthal on sax). That was a shhhhmokin set!!!!
Yes, if you are playing in any odd time signature, every other bar, the big 7 in this case, you are on the upbeat by going over the bar line then back in the beat again on the next bar; I studied this concept with my drum teacher but Vinnie is just insane the way he manipulates the time here. What a master
Exactly! And yeah Vinne…forget about it😱
I'm ready! 🥁
Let’s goooooooo💪🏾
Have you seen the Joshua Redman quartet night in Tunisia? Would love some commentary on blade’s playing!
Quincy..Pls do a reaction video on the tune “Channel one suite”on Buddy Rich’s album Mercy Mercy Mercy live from caesar’s palace!
Specifically, the
buzz roll sequence at the end of his solo!
Incredible seamless buzz roll with accents then transitioning to blazing single strokes!!….
Check it out!!..you’ll agree!!!
I hear three kinds of seven. The big seven, the small seven and a seven wich is so small, it happenes two times in the small seven (do dada da di dada da). First i heared the bass player, than the piano and finally you. This small and big thing reminds me of footloose and fancy free by Bill Bruford.
Awesome Baldur. Yeah the micro 7 is very “dangerous”🤣
One reason Vinnie's playing here was so free and inspired was because he was with his buddy and fellow madman virtuoso Abe Laboriel Sr. Webster ran out of words for their musical conversation!
Fantastic of course in a Premiership League of drumming greats don't forget TW was a big influence of his& Fusion I may be wrong was started by TW.late 60s
Check out TW with Stan Getz/S Clarke/C Corea live Captain Marvel at the Montreux jazz festival 👌
Oh yeah that’s a good one! Thanks Pete:)
I wonder if Vinnie walks in odd time signatures !!! Lmao , Vinnie has a way of going so far out and stay on time that's just rediculous !! Monster Player !!!
No words...
Exactly!
I really LOVE what you said Quincy, Vinnie is no concerned about trying to be cool, he just want to hit the hell out of the drums, period.
PS : I just went to see a video, of Billy Kilson, fortunately when I close my eyes and I listen with my ears it sound great, because I really hate the way he's always showing off, yikes, cringe...
Break the cymbal Vinnie 😂😂😂
Holy hell
Right!!?
You should react to the Vinnie Chaka Kahn sound check. 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Wizard of Odd!!!
I love what he did with Allan Holdsworth, Sting, and Jeff Beck.
The Secrets album is A masterpiece!!! Vinnie elevated Allan's soloing into even higher extremes, if that was possible :)
abe laborial is off the scale too
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is all been transcribed and is on TH-cam
Quincy, you're worse than me listening to Tony with Miles at the Plugged Nickel. Thazz a good thang . . .
Ha! Hard to control myself and sit still, and stay quiet, listening to this amazing madness!!
Cool video on one of my favorite drummers. Just a note, get a better microphone for your voice. The range of volume is all over the place. That would help even it out. At some points, it's like a whisper and I have to turn the volume up. Then down, and back up, and down, and up...
Thanks, will do👍🏾
What's the name of this video, of how can I find?
Type in Vinnie Colaiuta at The Baked Potato.
👍👍✌️🙏☯️
Hi from Frence, Can you do a video on Chris daddy Dave ? Thank you for your videos 👍🏿 bravo
Indeed!!
where is the original video?
th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=baked+potato+vinnie+colaiuta
Where is one😂
🤣🤣🤣
I shot this video
Oh wow! Must have been crazy to be there.
@@drumqtips it was magical. Vinnie was playing live in LA at various clubs fairly regularly for the first time in awhile. I still remember the first gig we saw him with Randy Waldman at Cafe Cordiale on Ventura. In an era before smart phones and YT any chance to see him was really special. Funny story is for this video I had to stand on a chair to the side in between him and the bar area, and shoot down over his shoulder. Literally right next to him. A couple nights, maybe a week, later we saw him with another group at the other (now closed) Baked Potato near Hollywood / Vine and he stopped playing mid set bc he recognized us and thought we were filming again (we weren’t).
In person I'll tell you a story about me and Vinny at drum doctors the Valley LA he signed a drum head for me for my studio David S with Sting now well Erie Boom Carter drummer both Jersey E street boys please excuse me while I kiss the skys Vin bad boy LA Baby Capone who's next you Q
Thanks for sharing brother El! Amazing!!
I'm old fashioned - I prefer Elvin Jones :D
Apples and oranges
If possible, I would appreciate it if you could explain what kind of drumming technique this guy's unbelievable left hand movement is based on.
th-cam.com/video/RD19aJnQw8M/w-d-xo.html
I wish I could explain that. He’s got very fast hands!
Don’t need constant talking pose it! Good vid tho
He's why I quit drums ...
I get it! 🤣🤣🤣
If I may make an observation, black people put the rhythm, soul and feeling before the technique. Most video commentaries have it in reverse
I don’t like to generalize but historically, yes there is certainly more emphasis placed on the feeling behind the music in black culture. Comes from the church. And even further back, the feeling and the importance of it comes from Africa.
@@drumqtips it’s a compliment btw
Mate, how about keeping quiet?
How about not watching a REACTION video mate?
@@drumqtips people that would watch this video would be drummers, as drummers we already know how good Vinnie is, so why the ohhh, ahhh & golly-gosh commentary? drummers not babies mate.
What you’re not getting is that I’m doing yelling for anyone else but me. Thats what I do. The shouts and woos are just how I express my excitement for music when it gets me. I grew up in the black church where that’s what you hear through the sermon and praise and worship and the black church and culture are the foundation of this music. Shouts, woos and yells are historically a part of the music/culture. You’re welcome not to prefer that but there are a lot of people who do like my woos, so there’s no need to get mad about it when no one forced you to watch it. Just give a thumbs down (if you feel that will accomplish something) and move on to something you prefer.
@@drumqtips fair enough, p.s. i don’t hide behind thumbs down, I prefer to comment. cheers.
You talk too much during the videos, man!
It’s a reaction video. I’m reacting to the video. Watching the original to avoid my banter.
If you're going to piggyback off someone else's performance by doing a so-called "reaction video", then I think you need to say more and be more precise. "Big seven"? What the hell is that? Why not talk about hemiolas or the difference between 7/8 and 7/4? In Vinnie's solo, instead sitting there saying, "Wow, don't do that!", why not describe what he is doing so your viewers/listeners might benefit from it, unless, of course, you can figure it yourself? If that's the case, you have no business doing this video.
I have over 100 videos of me playing and breaking down various concepts and techniques. These reaction videos are a chance to focus on the music and not the technique as much. FYI, I’ve broken down odd meters (and specifically 7/4) in other videos. Furthermore, he’s doing so much and playing so much great stuff, I’d be talking through the whole video if I broke down all the stuff he’s playing. And a lot people who watch my reactions already say I talk too much🤣. Thnx for watching anyways Paul.
@@drumqtips I understand, and I can hear from the little you do on here that you can play. My point is that I don't think it's fair to get people watching a performance which isn't yours to get views on your channel if you're not going to add to it. As you say, there is an enormous amount you could draw attention to; I think it would have been a better video if you had. Then you really would be drawing attention to the music. All the best.
I understand and respect your opinion. A lot of other folks watching would disagree with you. But it’s all good. Can’t please everyone:) I appreciate the open and respectful dialogue sir. All the best👍🏾
OH MAN
few months ago the full video of that concert was available on youtube! where could we watch it?
I’m not sure. Maybe they took it down for some reason.
@@drumqtips 😭😭😭😭
