12:15 very interesting insight into Steve Gadd transitioning in life... he's consciously moving away from the 15 hours a day session work that was taking a real toll on him physically and mentally. By '85 he had a couple kids yet he was still doing drugs at a crazy rate, and you can tell he's worn out and realizes his work and drug habits needed to change. Good for him that he made the right decisions.
God I remember a night in Ronnie Scott’s so much smoke you couldn’t even see the band, next morning my eyes were still stinging........Ah the good old days when men were men and sheep were worried lol
I’m curious about that to Dieter. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a prototype ride or even a crash. In the slow song I noticed a small piece of white tape on the backside of that cymbal and I might noticed a crack on top along with the lathing direction. Maybe it’s an 18” cymbal or a 20” cymbal or even the old K ride that Steve used for a long time (check out the Grover Washington Jr. Live Concert where all his cymbals are cracked and Steve’s hi hat cymbal misses pieces of metal. Steve could have it cut down to size? The ride cymbal that he’s using here has a very dry and trashy sound which I like very much. I guess it’s thin and I recognise the sound in a 22” Istanbul Agop Signature ride cymbal that I heard and in this 19” cymbal: th-cam.com/video/sQHjbqHnktU/w-d-xo.html The Istanbul Agop Signature series sounds old K Istanbul alike. If you like to know how Steve’s 18” EAK prototype ride(s) were made than you can check my EAK Island video that I recently posted on TH-cam. If you like to leave a comment on that video than please do. Thanks.
I purchased a zildjian K custom Steve Gadd session 18" ride around 12 years ago. It's not what he is using here but it was developed in conjunction with Steve Gadd in 2004 to replicate the sound he was getting back in the day out of the K's. The 18'' is discontinued now (as of 2017) but zildjian seems to have a 20" version in their lineup now. At a guess, the 20" would be a little bit brighter than the 18''. I haven't played in a while so I don't remember all of its characteristics but I know I love that ride... Very versatile.

George Young one of the greatest technicians and all around player from session player and for most all current bands today. Nick P
Steve extra cool on the introduction. Slumped, smoking, not sweating anything. American cool personified.
So right.Great observation my friend
The whole group assembly, fantastic performance. Most grateful to the chance to listen.
Steve and Eddie made a great drum & bass team, they collaborated a lot together
And continue to do so ….
I like very much this concert (and Steve Gadd!
What a groove-unit!!!! Gomez and Gadd. Jeeeeeeez!
Don’t get any better
Well Done! Very Enjoyable
On en fait plus des comme ça!!!!!!!!!!! Des MONSTRES
You forgot to ask Steve about tap-dancing on the Mickey Mouse Club Show with Cubby playing drums.....a classic Gadd moment.!
so great.....and...missing ack now...
Gadd - God, back in the day.
Steve holding it together between 13:53 -14:00. Makes me laugh every time.
Daje Manuel Fantoni!

@@johnboyle3297 Men were men because they got lung cancer?
The tune from around 26:00 to 31:00 was very beautiful! (But starts of like Corea's Spain.)
So Great !!! Does anyone know what kind of ride cymbal he is playing here ???

Theey play so good. They dress so bad. 80s
