Re: Vinnie's book (not Colaiuta).

I would encourage everyone to check out Vinnie R on youtube.

He is a monster drummer, way ahead of his time. Great Bebop drummer. You'll love his playing and his recordings.

STEVE GADD credits Vinnie as one of his main influences growing up. Vinnie and Steve hail from the same area in NY.

Re: VINNIE - Vintage videos. Ok...or no vintage.

What? I'm very disappointed to see my hero pull off some lame Thomas Lang double pedal blasts. If I want to see drummers pander, I'll watch Neil Pert and early Steve Smith playing in the Buddy Rich Band Tribute . C'mon Vinnie....play YOU even it's a festival crowd (( "we are not going to play a...

And a year younger,

Re: Vnnie w/Herbie @Tokyo Jazz 2014

Did anyone have the same experience I did? After trying to link to this website above, my computer gave me several alerts about a serious threat, virus, malicious software. The page never appeared for me. What did appear was an advert to update my software to be able to view/hear Vinnie w/ Herbie @ ...

Re: VINNIE - Vintage videos...OK or not vintage.

Man, you're right. I saw your comment after I viewed this clip above and felt the same way-- "Almost guilty feeling that it did not interest me" Permission to be honest Sir !? Well, not having been too knocked out by recent releases w/ Vinnie in the last few years (yes, there were some nic...

Re: YOUR Fantasy future Recording of Vinnie Colaiuta

I don't have a main speaker system. I have a 5 way surround sound system that I have not used for 3 years. I have many boom boxes and nice sound systems in my autos. Are you implying that my high end hearing is lacking? No, it's all good. It's not the sound system(s). I notice a much crisper sound o...

Re: YOUR Fantasy future Recording of Vinnie Colaiuta

Steve Holmes said, "flat sound" referring to " Shut Up and Play Yer Guitar." That's interesting Steve. I find that all the CDs I buy are mastered flat. One exception of Sammy Davis Jr with the Buddy Rich Big Band from 1966 . That is very bright, crisp and has all the high end a d...

Re: The Buddy Rich television show

Let's identify this Television Show correctly.
It was not called THE BUDDY RICH television show.
It was called AWAY WE GO.

Named after a tune of the same name, from the LP, THE NEW ONE.
