Whenever I need some inspiration, this clip is one of the things I turn to, he has a lot of power and fire here. And that snare is ridiculous.

He makes a mistake around 6:23, and you can see from his face how much that pissed him off. He's deep inside his head.

He sounds very Bonham-esque, or Bonhan sounds very Rich-esque.

That one handed roll in the left hand on the high hats is outrageous. I haven’t seen him do it with that technique other than in this video.

She called him a karaoke drummer.

While Steve isn't exactly my personal favourite, this karaoke drumming stuff doesn't sound half bad to me.

That looks like Steve Smith is paying tribute to Art Blakey’s “Night in Tunesia.”
