@@AndrewRooneyDrums I saw him once do an amazing drum roll on the snare . He did it with just one hand , It might be on you tube ,Paice said he said he started playingdrums late, about age fifteen .
Always loved Paice. I have no clue why Bonham got more credit. Paice has more skill touch and smoothness and when he needs to lay it down he does that too
It's obvious to us drummers that Paice > Bonham, with respect to the also great Bonham. As Portnoy very accurately said, there isn't such a thing as a best drummer, but favourite drummer! I would add that this has to do with listeners who are not musicians and pick as "best" drummer the one of their favourite band. For example you can see best drummer polls where Ringo Starr is above Paicey, Portnoy, Bonham etc, while he obviously isn't better! For sure Ringo may be someone's favourite drummer! On the other hand, we the musicians are able to judge if someone is better than another! That's the case for many people!
I suspect Zepps sheer body of quality product and Bonhams essential role in that realm underpins his own justified elevation.Paice had a higher workload with DP with their hard/cosmic stage workouts but had less prominence compered to the others maybe.He just did what needed to be done in his low-key-high-talent style.A musical wizard essentially.
Son dos estilos diferentes: Bonham era potencia, Paice es velocidad ... En principio. Ambos, bateristas de " puta madre ", de lo mejor que hemos escuchado... Y ambos le daban el " sello " a sus respectivas bandas 👋👋👋👋😎🇦🇷
According to Wikipedia: "He is primarily left-handed with a left-handed drum-kit set-up and uses the matched-grip approach. He is well known for his extremely fast and smooth single and double-stroke rolls as well as single bass pedal speed. He did however perform once with a double-bass setup on the title track of the Fireball album and was performed live occasionally. He is also known for perfecting the one-handed roll as demonstrated on a Drummerworld video." Ian has been with Deep Purple since 1968 but also worked with Whitesnake and Paul McCartney.
yeah this was 50 years ago - BUT - he´s still a killer drummer, saw him recently and he still just nails it. He is a lefty, thats right, and he didn´t use double kick back in those days, he´s just the fastest on earth on a sigle kickdrum
Ian was phenomenal !! Except for one or two tracks that I can think of, he ALWAYS used just a single Bass Drum. Just incredible speed and power from him. One of my all-time favorites...just an awesome talent.
On the original 1973 Made In Japan vinyl, Ian got a 64-beat using one bass pedal on the Space Trckhin' track. I bought the CD and was absolutely pissed it was another version.
Back in 1970 when DP was recording Fireball the Who was in the same studio. Paice borrowed Moons bass drum and played the intro to Fireball on double bass. Would that make him the first drummer to use a double bass?
Paice was / is a beast. Bonham yes, Ward, yes, but Paice? The God. There's so much to listen to on those early DP mk2 albums. Drums are an amazing place to start.
Sooo crafty. Great chops and groove. Last couple of years I’ve really been kinda blown away with the subtle little things he does to push and ‘refresh’ a driving groove. Love that guy.
It's funny that this drum teacher don't even know who he is.😂 That he's playing a single bass. While he's drinking his coffee he doesn't even know he's a lefty 😂 How in the world do you not know who Ian Pace is 😂. Pretty isolated I guess in iceland or greenland or whatever is from. There's not a drummer in the world that doesn't know who Ian Pace is. I'm astonished.
Ian was widely influenced by Buddy Rich, and this jazzy style fitted perfectly with DP with Lord and Blackmore in keyboards and guitar, two extremely clean and rhythmic musicians, and also the groovy bass of R. Glover. A good one to see more of Paice stuff is "Fireball".
I read a story about Ian Paice that his parents were classically trained musicians and they started him out playing violin. He used to flip the violin over on his lap to tap out the timings for the song he was learning. He would kind of get lost in what he was doing and more enjoyed tapping on the violin than bowing it. I don't remember exactly how it happened but he ended up getting into percussion and drumming instead of playing violin. So I believe he received proper lessons and training for percussion. Which probably explains his chops and classic jazz technique.
LONG LONG OVERDUE reaction on The Chief, Ian Paice (yes he's a lefty). I will tell you on thing Andrew. After you have listened to the entire work of this man, you will be an enriched teacher. You hit the hammer on the nail. He has a jazzy groove and swing combined with enough power (not as much as Bonham), that makes him one of a kind. Highlight for me are The Mule and 20 minutes of magic in Space Truckin, the version of Made in Japan 1972 th-cam.com/video/6HkotwR1hxw/w-d-xo.html. This man has seen it all and has played with them all. At this moment Deep Purple are touring. A week ago he shared footedge of a new Deep Purple song '7 and 7' th-cam.com/video/7rO4VMw0DFI/w-d-xo.html. In a couple of weeks he will be 74 but he still deliver the goods. Finally the most important thing: you cannot find a kinder and more generous man than Ian Paice. He also recommended Yoyoka's Sparkling in a special video message on You Tube. As already commented Burn is also from Deep Purple. Together with Bonham, Baker & Moon he belongs on the Mount Rushmore of old school rock. We all know the power of Moon. But if you want to see a Jazz skilled drummer combined with heroinic ferocious power, Ginger Baker is the answer. There still is a lot of studying to do☺. Thank you so much that you have given The Chief a place on your channel!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums So glad that I'm your sub for some years now, because you introduced me to a lot of great new drummers. Despite that Ian and Moon are my first drum loves. It's difficult to get over that ☺
You can tell the image is not flipped due to the Ludwig tag on the bass drum. This is a man who sold out the Buddocan venue in Japan during the day. This shows his majestic ✨️ talent in all its glory. This is also the man who did a spontaneous plug for Yoyoka's Sparkling video saying that it was an impressive drumming composition and performance regardless of the drummer's age. He is on top of everything a gentleman. Immensely talented musician. Well done reaction!
Great video, I wonder if you agree with me that Deep Purple single handedly invented speed metal, since FireBall was really the first rock song to feature the Double Bass 'running' technique, almost 8 years before Motörhead's OverKill. Thanks.
Ian Paice is a lefty - influenced by Buddy Rich - he has his own you-tube channel if you want to check out more. Deep Purple were (and are) a strange amalgam of prog & hard rock - but basically an instrumental band with vocals. In 1972 there were only a handful of drummers who could sustain an extended 'musical' drum solo - John Bonham, Carl Palmer, Bill Bruford and Ian Paice were the main ones that spring to mind.
I always got more of a Buddy Rich/Gene Krupa big band vibe from Ian's solos. My favourite drummer from the classic rock era, when I was just starting to get into music.
I've loved his drumming since I was a teenager. I grew up with Deep Purple and have always been in awe of Ian's drum techniques. My favorite dummer of all time!
I met Ian Paice a few years ago, really nice guy. I told him that I was a drummer as well and was just listening to the Mule from Made in Japan. He told me that his solo on that LP was the best performance, so check that recording out. @ notes about his left Ludwig kit, his rack tom was custom built, it was a 14 by 14 drum split in half. His ride cymbal is stacked on the same stand as his crash cymbal. Ian did play double kick on the song Fireball but mostly a single kick and pedal.
@@KNUKOK Spot on.. Double kick pedals were later introduced you could say as yet another labour saving devise for those who didn't have the skills of the likes of Bonham, Paice and Ward, sadly myself included.
Lefty Paicey is the best and a very kind man: I met him in 2012. He came to Italy for a little gig with a local Deep-Purple-Cover band. He was the guest at a private party before the night show. One of the dreams of my musical life is been accomplished!
After Steve Morse joined the band, he called Paice a “great, heavy Ringo”. One of my consistently favorite drummers to LISTEN TO back in the 70s. His intro to Fireball stands the test of time for originality and fierceness.
If you could create my (meaning opinion people) idea of the greatest drummer in the world it is Ian Paice. Dude has it all... rock sensibility, jazz influence with funk and a groove like nobody's business. He has such amazing snare dynamics... his official TH-cam channel has him playing drums to some stuff in the studio... worth checking out. Keep up the great content
Deep purple, led zeppelin and Black sabbath. The three founding bands of heavy metal. And there is no surprise that the drummers for all three bands are top notch. There were the influence for all that followed. Not just metal, but for rock music as a whole
I'm with you. I knew nothing of Paice. I know he's a lefty, single bass, two cymbals on that one stand(Moon did that). But did not expect the Jazz influence, School of Joe Morello, exceptional snare work. And how many drummers can captive their audience playing a hi-hat solo? Goes to show you how versatile that instrument is really is.
Yeah , fantastic drummer . Left handed . 1 up 2 down . The first 45rpm record I ever played was Black Night with Speed King on the b side . I was probably 5 or 6 , then I heard Fireball and couldn't fathom what the heck was going on with the drum intro . Everything from that point was heavy rock for me . Then prog etc a bit later .. I have my mum's singles collection to thank for my music taste. When she passed I was given her record player and records. At an age when I should have been listening to nursery rhymes I had Purple , Beatles, Bowie ,Sabbath , and many more bands who were current or just recent ( beatles) ... These records inspired me to learn instruments . Peace and love brother ✌💚
Deep Purple - Mandrake Root (Live, London, 1970) It breaks into a massive jam about two minutes in. Throughout the video there are a number of camera views of Ian and his kit. A few of the shots are showing a full view of him from the right side. His kit here looks to be the same set up he was using in 1970.
Ian Paice Ian Paice alright. My brother was a drummer, and he'd always be on his practice pad with a Deep Purple album on picking out Ian's different techniques and would work them in songs that'd play in the band he played with
Yes Sir Ian is a lefty and single kick. One of the 1st three records I ever bought (yes, vinyl) was Deep Purple Made In Japan. Great double album. I listened to an interview with Ian and he said one of his favourite things to use in solos were paradidles. I have come to the point in my career where I find it pointless to compare……..anything! To me there is only different and it opened me up to be able to enjoy more of everything and everything more. For me Ian Paice and Jon Bonham were 2 different styles and I love them both.
Love Deep Purple! They are the soundtrack of my childhood. Ian Gillian is an increadable singer, duals with Richies guitar at some points! Richie plays a riff and Ian sings it back. So awsome. One of the best drumsong with Deep Purple has always been Perfect Stranger. Ian P had always been a favorite of mine. Together with bonzo of course.
Ian Paice is primarily left-handed with a left-handed drum-kit set-up. He is well known for his extremely fast and smooth single and double-stroke rolls as well as *single bass pedal* speed.😎
Ian Paice was always my favourite of the old era hard rock drummers - no mistaking him when you hear him. Got to see him a few times with Gary Moore, and once with Purple
He's a Lefty!!! SINGLE KICK!!! IAN PAICE is the man!!! Hands like Buddy Rich... with a super fast left foot.... The Cymbal Stands back in the day had tubes thin enough to mount another Cymbal on top... I used to do the same thing on my kit....
you got the best live solo on The Mule, I love that concert album and I also love the song. Next song from Fireball album, Fools made me see, this band can do drama and surprise in hard rock song writing. Not forgetting Demons Eye.😊
You MUST listen to Ian on Deep Purple's "Burn", "Lay down, Stay Down", "Highway Star", "Space Trucking'", "Rat Bat Blue".... Really too many great performances to list here....
There is some much in Paiceys drumming I can't even begin.. just listen to the groove of Space Trucking, the sheer speeding ticket worth drumming on Burn. Ian Paice is the cornerstone of rock drumming. Just add John Bonham, Ginger Baker and Bill Ward and you can build a house on top of that - a house of Hard Rock!
Vastly, VASTLY underrated drummer. Andrew you have to listen to Made in Japan IN ITS ENTIRETY and listen to Paicey's work his ability to hit off the beat and keep a driving belting rhythm his ability to anticipate mood changes in Lord and Blackmore's extemporising he is that glue that held Mark II from descending into chaos on stage.
Yes, Ian Paice is a leftie and is mostly self-taught and doesn’t practice - in the classic sense of practice that is! There’s a video out their, very recent, where he talks about it... 😎
He´s a leftie. Back in -72 he played a Ludwig 14x6,5" Supra, 13 16 and 18" toms and a single 24x14" bassdrum. He "stacked" 2 crashes on 1 stand by drilling up the hole on the bottom cymbal and fitting a cup and washer on the bottom part of the stand, much like Peart did for most of his career. The Mule drum solo on Made in Japan was one of my greatest inspirations as a budding drummer, in those days mostly a drummer in my head and occasionally on pots, pans and footresters and, when allowed to, getting a go on one of the kits owned by drummers my father used to play with. I was 10 at the time. Ringo, Bonzo, Paicey...
I seen him do this live not this particular video but I've seen the band a couple times a lot of people underrated him but if you really watch him Simply Amazing🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No double kick from Ian Paice. He only used it on the “Fireball” number, where the roadie carried an extra drum in. His trademark these days are his one hand drumrolls.
At the time, Paice was not a double kick player. Although, I have this entire concert on DVD. This was also before the invention of the double kick pedal. But, a second bass drum is brought onstage for the song "Fireball" which he did record with two kicks. But, for this solo, I believe he is only using a single kick. For me, Bonzo, Paicey and Carmine Appice are my trinity for 70's hard rock drummers.
I believe Ian Paice had a special bass drum made by Ludwig, a snare set to concert pitch, a single top Tom Tom, and two floor toms, I think one was a 16” and the other was an18”. I am not sure of the size of the crash, and ride cymbals, but yes, Ian Paice is a left handed. I saw Deep Purple at the Rainbow Theatre at Findsbury Park in London in the summer of 1972, and have never, and never will forget those amazing moments in time!!!!!!!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Oh, pleasepleasePLEASE do Carl Palmer - either "Karn Evil 9, 1st Impression Part 2" from California Jam 1974, which absolutely set the standard for the huge-rock-show rotating-drum-riser drum solo (he had the first one of those, you know); or 1970 Switzerland, "Tank."
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Due the 1970 live Tank by Palmer. He was only 20 years old. Like him or not, because he's not universally liked in the drum community, the dude had (has) chops.
Keep forgetting about that solo in Tank. Very underrated solo. My favorites are Toccata and the solo in Karn Evil 9 from the California Jam in 1974. Those solos were excessive and extravagant.
Yes, Hard Rock, not prog. Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin are considered the Unholy Trinity of hard rock and Metal!🤘 Three of the best drummers of the era.
That was amazing! Ian is a really cool guy. Besides the reaction video he did of YOYOKA's "Burn" cover, not sure if you know he did a 3 way colab of "Space Trucking" with YOYOKA and Sina. It's available on his channel for $5. Well worth the price of admission. This is his video advertisement of it, gives just a small taste. "Ian Paice feat. Yoyoka & Sina" th-cam.com/video/3N-i46bjJ3s/w-d-xo.html. But the coolest thing he did was a 2 min "advertisement" specifically for YOYOKA's new song "Sparkling". When someone of his caliber does this for an up and coming professional drummer, you know they have high expectations for their future. How cool is it that he took the time to make that video! Thanks for the comprehensive reaction, as always!
He is that fast without double kick. But he uses two bass drums for one song and that is Fireball ( they play that in this concert mounting the second bass drum just for that song. And when they recorded Fireball he actually went into another studio and borrowed Keith Moons bass drum.
1972 with no internet or video games, what can you do besides drop acid and play the drums for 27 hours. That's probably how they got so damn good back then
I see that T-shirt "Old Guys Rule" and thinks it's absolute BS...until I watch Paice, Gillan, Airey et al still doing their stuff. A shame Blackmore goes in and out of playing, as he is one of the greatest EVER axe-men...
I got to see him on the Burn tour from behind the kit when I was 14. Pretty amazing to say the least. Paice, Bonham, Ward! No one can touch them in hard rock.
In 2018 in Warrington near Manchester Nicko McBrain hosted ‘An Evening with Ian Paice’, with Nicko interviewing Ian and later there was a demo by both drummers. Re Jazz influenced - you are absolutely right. He said that big band jazz was the music in the house. The movies of Krupa, then Buddy Rich / Louis Bellson. His dad played piano / organ, and he started gigging with him playing at dances etc (foxtrot, tango etc). His dad would let him get on with a solo whilst he went to the bar for a drink, and sometimes he had to drive his dad home (underage). His cymbals are set up in a similar way to Krupa and Rich too. Really nice guy too. He and Nicko stayed and met & signed autographs with the audience after. He also mentioned the Made in Japan kit - the Ludwig Spatkle was borrowed by his neighbour’s son and he never saw it again! What a memorable evening seeing the hero who started me playing ! For me he outshines Bonzo both technically and in musicality. Many thanks for the video ! - from North Wales UK!! 🥁🥁🏴🥁🥁
I read some time ago that Ian Paice was classically trained? May have dropped out of music school? I think his first drum influences were jazz. His single bass speed is always impressive! I think his style, evenness of notes, and triplets were better than Bonham's. Just my opinion
Listen to Space Truckin’ at about the 2:50 spot. My favorite Ian Paice drum solo. Sure, The Mule is an explosion of speed and bombastic delight, but Ian’s technique on Space Truckin’ is incredible.
Yeah maybe...but Evans and Simper weren't around long, so Gillan and Glover have been there for, like, 50-plus years....But you are correct: Ian Paice is the ONLY constant member of the band.
Yes , I commented on the 'mandrake root' video, this is the one every drummer should watch. Proper drummer. I've got one of his Ludwig kits from '72! Ian Paice was the reason I started playing 40 yes ago!!!
His kit set up is unique. He’s really an elegant power drummer. I love when he inverts his sticks...he said it increased his level by 40db! He still performs this music at 73.
Deep purple are hard rock..and Ian paice is among the best. Highway star.. child in time live 1970..space Truckin and burn. Just to name a few purple gems.
I am a drummer. 47 years. In truth I chose drums because of Ian Paice,'s drumming. First shot came to me at age 10 the Fireball album. I'm a Paicey lifer. The chief is the surviving king
Child in Time - Remastered Made In Japan - 1972 - Power Swing with a Speed King Single Pedal. Also listen to the back bridge to the end of Smoke on the Water off the same album.
Ian Paice is left handed and he used two bass drums for some songs, like “Fireball “, yes, back in 1971. This song is proto- speed metal almost a decade before “Aces of spades” and “Rapid Fire” They play this song on this concert as well but the roadies bring the second bass drum later on the gig. During the solo for the “Mule”, he’s playing with only one bass drum and a single pedal
@@loicetienne7570 He definitely used a second bass drum even on this particular gig but I don’t know how it was in the studio durin the album recordings. It sounds like there’s a double bass action but who knows for sure
@@metalstorm7506 Yes, I may be mistaken about the details, perhaps he had just told that he was able to perform it with a single bass drum, but that he eventually chose to use two. I read the other comments, where it is explained much better.

How can you not now who Ian Paice is??? Let alone not know who Deep Purple is??? Speechless.
Honestly, I envy the man. Imagine being able to hear Paicey for the first time.
In my opinion, Ian Paice is the best drummer ever man!
Big call Andrew. But many will agree!
Agreed.
Living Metronome
10000% agree… bill ward and Steve gadd
Ian Paice was by far the best hard rock drummer! The Buddy Rich of hard rock, nothing less...
Agreed.
Definitely the best!
Totally agree.Bonham and moon tend to get the plaudits that belong to this wizard of the skins.
My favorite rock drummer. The level of musical virtuosity in Deep Purple was phenomenal.
I couldn't argue with you, in good faith. He was every bit as good and I prefer some of the stylistic differences.
The most criminally underrated drummer in rock history. Nice video Rooney.
Long on talent,short on ego.Creme de la creme.
Definitely the best drummer from that era! Great groove, swing, jazzy elements, crispy and tasty playing with crazy dynamics! He still rocks at 74!
That's nuts

He played on violin before it.
John bonham always said Barrimore Barlow was greatest British drummer but Barrimore in MD in 80s said the greatest was Ian Paice
Always loved Paice. I have no clue why Bonham got more credit. Paice has more skill touch and smoothness and when he needs to lay it down he does that too
Both great for me Roger!
It's obvious to us drummers that Paice > Bonham, with respect to the also great Bonham.
As Portnoy very accurately said, there isn't such a thing as a best drummer, but favourite drummer!
I would add that this has to do with listeners who are not musicians and pick as "best" drummer the one of their favourite band. For example you can see best drummer polls where Ringo Starr is above Paicey, Portnoy, Bonham etc, while he obviously isn't better! For sure Ringo may be someone's favourite drummer!
On the other hand, we the musicians are able to judge if someone is better than another!
That's the case for many people!
I suspect Zepps sheer body of quality product and Bonhams essential role in that realm underpins his own justified elevation.Paice had a higher workload with DP with their hard/cosmic stage workouts but had less prominence compered to the others maybe.He just did what needed to be done in his low-key-high-talent style.A musical wizard essentially.
I think it comes down to different styles of music. But this solo was awesome.
Son dos estilos diferentes: Bonham era potencia, Paice es velocidad ... En principio.
Ambos, bateristas de " puta madre ", de lo mejor que hemos escuchado...
Y ambos le daban el " sello " a sus respectivas bandas 👋👋👋👋😎🇦🇷
Ian Paice is an incredible drummer. I can also recommend to kisten to "Burn" by Deep Purple. The drumming is incredible.
Thanks Stefan!
We'll kisten this.
And lest we forget,his stunning turn on DP's 'Made in Europe' masterpiece live album on the 'you fool no one' track.Blackmore also at his best here.
Please, debes escuchar Do you we think we are, Place in The Line, y en el mismo CD, Rat Bar Blue ..
Nuevamente, Ian Paice te sorprenderá 👍👍😎🇦🇷
Ian Paice is actually absolutly underarter. Everybody talks about Bonham but Ian is another kind of drömmer. State of the art.
Ian Paice is and was and will always be the best for me.
According to Wikipedia: "He is primarily left-handed with a left-handed drum-kit set-up and uses the matched-grip approach.

I think he only used the double bass drums on Fireball
All correct
Ian was widely influenced by Buddy Rich, and this jazzy style fitted perfectly with DP with Lord and Blackmore in keyboards and guitar, two extremely clean and rhythmic musicians, and also the groovy bass of R. Glover. A good one to see more of Paice stuff is "Fireball".
I'll definitely do Fireball José!
He’s by far the greatest, had groove to spare
ian paice is also the only member of deep purple that has played on every album
Ian is one of my all time favourite drummers, underrated!!!
I rarely like drum solos, but I reckon Ian is just killing it !
YUP!
He did double kick on the intro to Fireball (they would bring out a second bass drum just for that song!) otherwise single kick.
He could do the intro with one kick, but wanted it sounds stronger, so he borrowed a kick from Keith Moon who was recording next store...
I read a story about Ian Paice that his parents were classically trained musicians and they started him out playing violin. He used to flip the violin over on his lap to tap out the timings for the song he was learning. He would kind of get lost in what he was doing and more enjoyed tapping on the violin than bowing it. I don't remember exactly how it happened but he ended up getting into percussion and drumming instead of playing violin. So I believe he received proper lessons and training for percussion. Which probably explains his chops and classic jazz technique.
He played drums in one of his Dad's bands in his younger days...
LONG LONG OVERDUE reaction on The Chief, Ian Paice (yes he's a lefty). I will tell you on thing Andrew. After you have listened to the entire work of this man, you will be an enriched teacher. You hit the hammer on the nail. He has a jazzy groove and swing combined with enough power (not as much as Bonham), that makes him one of a kind. Highlight for me are The Mule and 20 minutes of magic in Space Truckin, the version of Made in Japan 1972 th-cam.com/video/6HkotwR1hxw/w-d-xo.html. This man has seen it all and has played with them all. At this moment Deep Purple are touring. A week ago he shared footedge of a new Deep Purple song '7 and 7' th-cam.com/video/7rO4VMw0DFI/w-d-xo.html. In a couple of weeks he will be 74 but he still deliver the goods. Finally the most important thing: you cannot find a kinder and more generous man than Ian Paice. He also recommended Yoyoka's Sparkling in a special video message on You Tube. As already commented Burn is also from Deep Purple. Together with Bonham, Baker & Moon he belongs on the Mount Rushmore of old school rock. We all know the power of Moon. But if you want to see a Jazz skilled drummer combined with heroinic ferocious power, Ginger Baker is the answer. There still is a lot of studying to do☺. Thank you so much that you have given The Chief a place on your channel!
So glad to finally get to him!!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums So glad that I'm your sub for some years now, because you introduced me to a lot of great new drummers. Despite that Ian and Moon are my first drum loves. It's difficult to get over that ☺
Amen.
Salty, debes escuchar In Concert 1972 ... La versión de Space Truckin allí, entre Paice y Lord, te volarán la cabeza 👍👍😎🇦🇷
You can tell the image is not flipped due to the Ludwig tag on the bass drum. This is a man who sold out the Buddocan venue in Japan during the day. This shows his majestic ✨️ talent in all its glory. This is also the man who did a spontaneous plug for Yoyoka's Sparkling video saying that it was an impressive drumming composition and performance regardless of the drummer's age. He is on top of everything a gentleman. Immensely talented musician. Well done reaction!
Yes he is a gentleman and amazing drummer for sure
Yessir. He’s a likeable, very respectable cat on top of his incredible drumming.
Great video, I wonder if you agree with me that Deep Purple single handedly invented speed metal, since FireBall was really the first rock song to feature the Double Bass 'running' technique, almost 8 years before Motörhead's OverKill. Thanks.
Ian Paice is a lefty - influenced by Buddy Rich - he has his own you-tube channel if you want to check out more. Deep Purple were (and are) a strange amalgam of prog & hard rock - but basically an instrumental band with vocals. In 1972 there were only a handful of drummers who could sustain an extended 'musical' drum solo - John Bonham, Carl Palmer, Bill Bruford and Ian Paice were the main ones that spring to mind.
Great input here Michael. Thank you!
I always got more of a Buddy Rich/Gene Krupa big band vibe from Ian's solos. My favourite drummer from the classic rock era, when I was just starting to get into music.
well at least them are who Ian himself always says are his biggest influences, so...
Ya buddy rich came to me .
As a lefty, Ian was my drum hero. Nobody had better technique and feel.
Those were the three best at that time and age, John Bonham, Bill Ward and Sir Ian Paice!!
The Holy Trinity of British drummers.
@@joeday4293 Never heard of Ginger Baker or Keith Moon?
@@glenchapman3899 Yep.
I said what I said.
@@glenchapman3899 Ginger Baker with Cream awesome drummer. Keith Moon the Who great drummer but Ian Paice is my favorite all time
What about Ginger Baker and Carl Palmer and Simon Phillips
Played drums for 24 years and Ian paice has always been my inspiration. Rock n roll buddy rich ❤❤❤
He's a great inspiration!
Ian Paice in a league of his own in the 70's, as we're his fellow band mates. Two gods, one lord and Jesus Christ.
Yes Saul! 🙌
I've loved his drumming since I was a teenager. I grew up with Deep Purple and have always been in awe of Ian's drum techniques. My favorite dummer of all time!
I met Ian Paice a few years ago, really nice guy. I told him that I was a drummer as well and was just listening to the Mule from Made in Japan. He told me that his solo on that LP was the best performance, so check that recording out. @ notes about his left Ludwig kit, his rack tom was custom built, it was a 14 by 14 drum split in half. His ride cymbal is stacked on the same stand as his crash cymbal. Ian did play double kick on the song Fireball but mostly a single kick and pedal.
He does use a double kick pedal on tracks like "Hey Cisco" but the most incredible thing about Paicey, is he does it all with only one lung.
Oh wow!
Yes he does now use a double kick but I'm certain in this drum solo era it's a single.
@@KNUKOK Spot on.. Double kick pedals were later introduced you could say as yet another labour saving devise for those who didn't have the skills of the likes of Bonham, Paice and Ward, sadly myself included.
Lefty Paicey is the best and a very kind man: I met him in 2012. He came to Italy for a little gig with a local Deep-Purple-Cover band. He was the guest at a private party before the night show. One of the dreams of my musical life is been accomplished!
After Steve Morse joined the band, he called Paice a “great, heavy Ringo”.
One of my consistently favorite drummers to LISTEN TO back in the 70s.
His intro to Fireball stands the test of time for originality and fierceness.
Keith Moon called Ian Paice “boring”….lol.
If you could create my (meaning opinion people) idea of the greatest drummer in the world it is Ian Paice. Dude has it all... rock sensibility, jazz influence with funk and a groove like nobody's business.
He has such amazing snare dynamics... his official TH-cam channel has him playing drums to some stuff in the studio... worth checking out.
Keep up the great content
Thanks Paul!
Deep purple, led zeppelin and Black sabbath. The three founding bands of heavy metal.
And there is no surprise that the drummers for all three bands are top notch.
There were the influence for all that followed. Not just metal, but for rock music as a whole
Agree Iain! 💯👌
Though Jimi Hendrix was heavier than led Zeppelin. But definitely purple and sabbath
I'm with you. I knew nothing of Paice. I know he's a lefty, single bass, two cymbals on that one stand(Moon did that). But did not expect the Jazz influence, School of Joe Morello, exceptional snare work. And how many drummers can captive their audience playing a hi-hat solo? Goes to show you how versatile that instrument is really is.
Yup full jazz solo here
Oh yes, at last!, you have discovered Ian Paice.......thank the lord!! 👍🙂
Yeah , fantastic drummer .
Left handed . 1 up 2 down . The first 45rpm record I ever played was Black Night with Speed King on the b side . I was probably 5 or 6 , then I heard Fireball and couldn't fathom what the heck was going on with the drum intro . Everything from that point was heavy rock for me . Then prog etc a bit later .. I have my mum's singles collection to thank for my music taste. When she passed I was given her record player and records. At an age when I should have been listening to nursery rhymes I had Purple , Beatles, Bowie ,Sabbath , and many more bands who were current or just recent ( beatles) ...
These records inspired me to learn instruments .
Peace and love brother ✌💚
Thumbs up on Ian Paice. Glad you reacted to him.
Deep Purple - Mandrake Root (Live, London, 1970) It breaks into a massive jam about two minutes in. Throughout the video there are a number of camera views of Ian and his kit. A few of the shots are showing a full view of him from the right side. His kit here looks to be the same set up he was using in 1970.
That is the best version of Mandrake Root.
Exact reason why Paice is one of my top favorite drummers 😂
Ian Paice Ian Paice alright. My brother was a drummer, and he'd always be on his practice pad with a Deep Purple album on picking out Ian's different techniques and would work them in songs that'd play in the band he played with
Yes Sir Ian is a lefty and single kick. One of the 1st three records I ever bought (yes, vinyl) was Deep Purple Made In Japan. Great double album. I listened to an interview with Ian and he said one of his favourite things to use in solos were paradidles.
I have come to the point in my career where I find it pointless to compare……..anything! To me there is only different and it opened me up to be able to enjoy more of everything and everything more. For me Ian Paice and Jon Bonham were 2 different styles and I love them both.
Love Deep Purple! They are the soundtrack of my childhood. Ian Gillian is an increadable singer, duals with Richies guitar at some points! Richie plays a riff and Ian sings it back. So awsome. One of the best drumsong with Deep Purple has always been Perfect Stranger. Ian P had always been a favorite of mine. Together with bonzo of course.
Gillan
Thank you 👍🏻
Glad you noticed, too! Made in Japan has some of that going on. Beautiful!
Ian Paice is primarily left-handed with a left-handed drum-kit set-up. He is well known for his extremely fast and smooth single and double-stroke rolls as well as *single bass pedal* speed.😎
Ian Paice was always my favourite of the old era hard rock drummers - no mistaking him when you hear him. Got to see him a few times with Gary Moore, and once with Purple
So often overlooked....Master and my first drum hero. always will be in special place. Paice, Bonham, Mitch Mitchell fathers of rock drumming.
He's a Lefty!!! SINGLE KICK!!! IAN PAICE is the man!!! Hands like Buddy Rich... with a super fast left foot.... The Cymbal Stands back in the day had tubes thin enough to mount another Cymbal on top... I used to do the same thing on my kit....
Yup so good
you got the best live solo on The Mule, I love that concert album and I also love the song. Next song from Fireball album, Fools made me see, this band can do drama and surprise in hard rock song writing. Not forgetting Demons Eye.😊
You MUST listen to Ian on Deep Purple's "Burn", "Lay down, Stay Down", "Highway Star", "Space Trucking'", "Rat Bat Blue".... Really too many great performances to list here....
I will James!
There is some much in Paiceys drumming I can't even begin.. just listen to the groove of Space Trucking, the sheer speeding ticket worth drumming on Burn. Ian Paice is the cornerstone of rock drumming. Just add John Bonham, Ginger Baker and Bill Ward and you can build a house on top of that - a house of Hard Rock!
Love it
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Check him out on Flight of the Rat off the Deep Purple in Rock album.
My idol.
I wouldn't do what i do without that guy
That's amazing Guillaume
Vastly, VASTLY underrated drummer.
Andrew you have to listen to Made in Japan IN ITS ENTIRETY and listen to Paicey's work his ability to hit off the beat and keep a driving belting rhythm his ability to anticipate mood changes in Lord and Blackmore's extemporising he is that glue that held Mark II from descending into chaos on stage.
Yes, Ian Paice is a leftie and is mostly self-taught and doesn’t practice - in the classic sense of practice that is! There’s a video out their, very recent, where he talks about it... 😎
Ian Paice is the only original member of Deep Purple that has never been replaced by anyone!
He´s a leftie. Back in -72 he played a Ludwig 14x6,5" Supra, 13 16 and 18" toms and a single 24x14" bassdrum. He "stacked" 2 crashes on 1 stand by drilling up the hole on the bottom cymbal and fitting a cup and washer on the bottom part of the stand, much like Peart did for most of his career. The Mule drum solo on Made in Japan was one of my greatest inspirations as a budding drummer, in those days mostly a drummer in my head and occasionally on pots, pans and footresters and, when allowed to, getting a go on one of the kits owned by drummers my father used to play with. I was 10 at the time. Ringo, Bonzo, Paicey...
This kit is 16x10” rack, 18” & 20” floor toms 26”x16” bass drum custom depth
I seen him do this live not this particular video but I've seen the band a couple times a lot of people underrated him but if you really watch him Simply Amazing🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
No double kick from Ian Paice. He only used it on the “Fireball” number, where the roadie carried an extra drum in.
His trademark these days are his one hand drumrolls.
Great info thanks Kasper
Paice stated that he borrowed the extra bass drum from Keith Moon.
At the time, Paice was not a double kick player. Although, I have this entire concert on DVD. This was also before the invention of the double kick pedal. But, a second bass drum is brought onstage for the song "Fireball" which he did record with two kicks. But, for this solo, I believe he is only using a single kick. For me, Bonzo, Paicey and Carmine Appice are my trinity for 70's hard rock drummers.
It's the holy trinity!
Deep Purple fan since 1972. I've been blessed here.
I believe Ian Paice had a special bass drum made by Ludwig, a snare set to concert pitch, a single top Tom Tom, and two floor toms, I think one was a 16” and the other was an18”. I am not sure of the size of the crash, and ride cymbals, but yes, Ian Paice is a left handed. I saw Deep Purple at the Rainbow Theatre at Findsbury Park in London in the summer of 1972, and have never, and never will forget those amazing moments in time!!!!!!!
Yeah rack tom was special made 16x10” 18” and 20” floor special I think 16” deep 26” bass
There’s no bubble kick. He is known for his extremely fast single pedal. Excellent drummer! Naturally gifted. This guy was born a sticks in his hands.
The jazz influence is definitely present in Ian Paice's drumming. Check out Carl Palmer. He's another underrated drummer.
I will!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Oh, pleasepleasePLEASE do Carl Palmer - either "Karn Evil 9, 1st Impression Part 2" from California Jam 1974, which absolutely set the standard for the huge-rock-show rotating-drum-riser drum solo (he had the first one of those, you know); or 1970 Switzerland, "Tank."
@@joeday4293 totally agree, not an ELP fan but he was, probably still is, a superb player
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Due the 1970 live Tank by Palmer. He was only 20 years old. Like him or not, because he's not universally liked in the drum community, the dude had (has) chops.
Keep forgetting about that solo in Tank. Very underrated solo. My favorites are Toccata and the solo in Karn Evil 9 from the California Jam in 1974. Those solos were excessive and extravagant.
Yes, Hard Rock, not prog. Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin are considered the Unholy Trinity of hard rock and Metal!🤘 Three of the best drummers of the era.
Ritchie found Ian playing in a bar when Ian was 16 years old. Listen to the pre Ian Gillan phase cover of Hush. He was just a kid
Great solo - massive underrated is mr Paice. Except by those in the know :)
That was amazing! Ian is a really cool guy. Besides the reaction video he did of YOYOKA's "Burn" cover, not sure if you know he did a 3 way colab of "Space Trucking" with YOYOKA and Sina. It's available on his channel for $5. Well worth the price of admission. This is his video advertisement of it, gives just a small taste. "Ian Paice feat. Yoyoka & Sina" th-cam.com/video/3N-i46bjJ3s/w-d-xo.html. But the coolest thing he did was a 2 min "advertisement" specifically for YOYOKA's new song "Sparkling". When someone of his caliber does this for an up and coming professional drummer, you know they have high expectations for their future. How cool is it that he took the time to make that video! Thanks for the comprehensive reaction, as always!
He is that fast without double kick. But he uses two bass drums for one song and that is Fireball ( they play that in this concert mounting the second bass drum just for that song. And when they recorded Fireball he actually went into another studio and borrowed Keith Moons bass drum.
i would recommend "maybe im a leo" . ian is killing it on the drums
1972 with no internet or video games, what can you do besides drop acid and play the drums for 27 hours. That's probably how they got so damn good back then
He hasn't drop acid or played drums for 27 hours - He's a little too normal for a drummer.
IAN PAICE = THE VERY BEST DRUMMER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And he still plays fantastic!!!! thats amazing i think
Sure is Peter
I see that T-shirt "Old Guys Rule" and thinks it's absolute BS...until I watch Paice, Gillan, Airey et al still doing their stuff. A shame Blackmore goes in and out of playing, as he is one of the greatest EVER axe-men...
I got to see him on the Burn tour from behind the kit when I was 14. Pretty amazing to say the least. Paice, Bonham, Ward! No one can touch them in hard rock.
Cozy?
@@carlhaydock1787 Cosy Powell yes! I was talking more of the first wave of hard rock drummer's. Cozy was another monster drummer no doubt.
In 2018 in Warrington near Manchester Nicko McBrain hosted ‘An Evening with Ian Paice’, with Nicko interviewing Ian and later there was a demo by both drummers.
Re Jazz influenced - you are absolutely right. He said that big band jazz was the music in the house. The movies of Krupa, then Buddy Rich / Louis Bellson. His dad played piano / organ, and he started gigging with him playing at dances etc (foxtrot, tango etc). His dad would let him get on with a solo whilst he went to the bar for a drink, and sometimes he had to drive his dad home (underage). His cymbals are set up in a similar way to Krupa and Rich too.
Really nice guy too. He and Nicko stayed and met & signed autographs with the audience after.
He also mentioned the Made in Japan kit - the Ludwig Spatkle was borrowed by his neighbour’s son and he never saw it again!
What a memorable evening seeing the hero who started me playing !
For me he outshines Bonzo both technically and in musicality. Many thanks for the video ! - from North Wales UK!! 🥁🥁🏴🥁🥁
MORE IAN PAICE!!! MORE DEEP PURPLE!!!!!
My fav Rock drummer (many, many number 2's) and saw them in 1974 or so...Thanks for your input and glad you enjoyed him.
I read some time ago that Ian Paice was classically trained? May have dropped out of music school? I think his first drum influences were jazz. His single bass speed is always impressive! I think his style, evenness of notes, and triplets were better than Bonham's. Just my opinion
Paicey never had any formal training but his father played in dance orchestras where Ian got to sit in as a kid.
Listen to Space Truckin’ at about the 2:50 spot. My favorite Ian Paice drum solo. Sure, The Mule is an explosion of speed and bombastic delight, but Ian’s technique on Space Truckin’ is incredible.
Thank you for giving The Chief the respect that he deserves. I’d like to see your reaction to You Fool No one from the Burn LP.
One of the greatest. And the only true original left in Deep Purple.
Yeah maybe...but Evans and Simper weren't around long, so Gillan and Glover have been there for, like, 50-plus years....But you are correct: Ian Paice is the ONLY constant member of the band.
Yes , I commented on the 'mandrake root' video, this is the one every drummer should watch. Proper drummer. I've got one of his Ludwig kits from '72! Ian Paice was the reason I started playing 40 yes ago!!!
Rock on!
The whole Made in Japan album by Deep Purple is a masterpiece. Incredible band overall!
But this one is from scandinavian nights..
@@skyscraper7474 I know…
One of my first albums, and still one of the greatest live albums ever. Check out Gillan's 'duel' with Blackmore, too!😀
His kit set up is unique. He’s really an elegant power drummer. I love when he inverts his sticks...he said it increased his level by 40db! He still performs this music at 73.
Deep purple are hard rock..and Ian paice is among the best. Highway star.. child in time live 1970..space Truckin and burn. Just to name a few purple gems.
I am a drummer. 47 years.
In truth I chose drums because of Ian Paice,'s drumming.
First shot came to me at age 10 the Fireball album.
I'm a Paicey lifer.
The chief is the surviving king
Oh yeah....single kick brother
Debatably, the best drummer ever. Without question, the best rock drummer on the snare.
I remember hearing the entire machine head album as i bought it on cd 30 years after its making and getting my head blown of...
Child in Time - Remastered Made In Japan - 1972 - Power Swing with a Speed King Single Pedal. Also listen to the back bridge to the end of Smoke on the Water off the same album.
50’s Joe Morello… 60’s Buddy Rich… 70’s Ian Paice… 80’s Neil Peart. Those are mu favorite drummers!
Best drummer ever
I need to check out more Sergio!
Ian ran his ride with a crash directly above on his right. Pretty much still does to this day but just via a boom now.
Ian played a silver sparkle Ludwig super classic in the early days. Was a young drummer and desperately wanted the same kit. 67 now and still got it
Best rock drummer of all time. True. Could really swing.
Ian Paice is left handed and he used two bass drums for some songs, like “Fireball “, yes, back in 1971. This song is proto- speed metal almost a decade before “Aces of spades” and “Rapid Fire”
They play this song on this concert as well but the roadies bring the second bass drum later on the gig. During the solo for the “Mule”, he’s playing with only one bass drum and a single pedal
If I remember correctly, Ian did not use two bass drums on Fireball in 1971, but he may well have done so later.
@@loicetienne7570 He definitely used a second bass drum even on this particular gig but I don’t know how it was in the studio durin the album recordings. It sounds like there’s a double bass action but who knows for sure
@@metalstorm7506 Yes, I may be mistaken about the details, perhaps he had just told that he was able to perform it with a single bass drum, but that he eventually chose to use two. I read the other comments, where it is explained much better.
Paice was and remains my favourite.
Fantastic Graeme
Complete Lefty drummer. Ian is and always has been a monster.
