The great Brian Blade

[Henry II]

I suggest a glass of red wine along with this one.

I don't think I've seen anyone crash a cymbal with the tip of the stick and hit the snare with the butt of the stick at the same time before. That was pretty cool.

I just got Blade's CD Mama Rosa. Apart from being totally speechless from his playing and singing, I have to say that the album is absolutely incredible. Thank you HOD forum for this personal discovery!

that was seriously one of the nicest pieces of music I have ever heard in my entire life! that kicked so much ass !!

Brian Blade is such a monster player... everything he plays is so free, yet he has total control of the song...
he throws a back beat for half a bar and then switches to these beautiful 16th note patterns...

I had no idea Brian played guitar and sang! Nice...
