#drumteacher #toriamos #reaction - Hudba
Just before the performance of this song, there’s an interview moment with her and David Byrne were he asks her about playing with a band and she talks about her struggle to find musicians, and particularly drummers, who she can perform with. “You don’t f**k to a metronome” she says. Then she talks about meeting Matt at the suggestion of her then partner and how naturally they synced after jamming. They got each other instantly, and it shows in this entire concert. Brilliant stuff.
Such a great anecdote! It doesn't surprise me. Tori never gave a fuck about following the rules. (She was kicked out of Peabody for "musical insubordination".)
Hard to believe this was recorded 25 years ago. The music seems so fresh and timeless.
she has more talent in one finger than swift, gaga, grande and co in their whole bodies together...
Music so good you forget that she is signing about wanting to kill her coworker.
She believes in peace. But I wouldn’t push it.
You both made my day 😂 many thanks!
I don't forget
exactly, but at the same time she’s taking us with her, don’t you think? I mean, my heart is running faster and faster as she turns up “the volume”… you know what I mean? 😅
...or you find yourself thinking intensively how to help her hide the body. 😅
I truly appreciated your Tori Amos journey, Andrew. For me, it’s a great comeback to her music.
I've truly loved this Stephane!
Jon Evans, the bassist had just joined Tori in 1998… recommended by Chamberlain. When Tori first brought Jon Evans and Matt Chamberlain on, I remember reading in her book that Jon Evans jokingly asked Tori if she was going to let him play the bass line…. Because Tori has a very heavy left hand and was used to doing those parts when she toured with just her piano. She had to let up on the bass, to allow Evans to shine. They are all so great together.
Yup total band synergy
And he's still playing with her!
Shout out to Steve Caton, the guitarist.. Y Kant Tori Read yw
@@DarkMadamX83Wow, Caton has been with her THAT long?! It’s not a space where guitarists often get to shine, but he’s undeniably gifted.
On the live show of Cornflake Girl she introduces the band mates.
“And this creature who hits things, this is Matt Chamberlain.”
She's still one of the most fascinating musician ever
Tori is a piano prodigy,her voice and lyrics are haunting,and beautiful.She should be celebrated !
100%
Great reaction, i hope others discover Tori Amos' music through reactions like this. It's never too late to discover wonderful things.
Tori said in an interview that her music has jazz elements because of the improv going on so you're spot on to mention it.
Love the comment about the bassist and the entire band. "This whole thing is a masterclass". Very well said, sir.
Thank YOU
Thank you for appreciating the obvious mutual respect they all have for each other. I don’t even know if I’ve ever watched a full Waitress from this era because they typically last like 10 minutes 🤣. They were on fire!
Total fire Thomas!
Everyone who performs with Tori always brings their 'A' game. Great stuff.
Yup she picks the best!
They have to
Matt had a great side project called SLOW MUSIC; a band with Robert Fripp, Mike Mills (of REM), Bill Riefling (King Crimson/Ministry) and others. He used a MoogerFooger delay pedal on the kit, and could bend time with the contol pedal. Taking the Stewart Copeland/Police, Bauhaus delayed-drums thing one step further... check it out!
Matt Chamberlain is probably number one or two on my list of favorite drummers. I love all of his work from Edie Brickell to Tori. Amos to his critters buggin side project. I love his sounds I love his creativity I love his amazing immense
groove. Mats work on Tori’s track Datura is one of my favorites.. OH! Also, Sweet Sangria both studio tracks are so heavy on the groove 😊
Matt was using a circular sawblade as a splash back then, I kid you not!!!
this is THE song that I heard live in 1999 that turned me into a Tori Amos fan
Jon Evans bass. Steve Caron Guitar (who had been with her since the 80’s band). Matt Chamberlain drums. Tori Piano vocals. The preview tour and 98 tour were unbelievable. That was her first tour with a band… Practice and learning works. You would think they had been playing together for 10 years!
Like I said before, it’s about time! But better late than never. This performance gave me chills & I’ve seen it dozens of times. Tori and the guys never cease to amaze. So glad they’re finally being recognized!
So good Kathleen! 🙌
Thanks for reintroducing me to the genius, Tori Amos.
Tori really is a Force of Nature. The 54th West Session is a proof of that. All-time legendary performance.
This is one of my favorite performances of all time. I put this on when I'm having a hard time getting up in the morning.
Yup. Entire set was one of the greatest performances I'd ever seen. Still is. The arrangements are exquisite. Their ability to create a heavy velvet curtain of mood and sensuality and drive anticipation and tension.... Purr.
Yeah this is a vibe. Like Portishead... takes you into another world
Tori at her peak.
My favorite live performance 🎵🤟
I've been lucky enough to see Tori live 20 times, including in 2009 when Matt Chamberlain and Jon Evans joined her on tour again. This truly is the magic trio that you can just listen to over and over and you still notice new details in the music.
Top notch reaction. Tori is so dynamic, and the band full on precise👊🏼
If you want to see some great footage of Matt and an incredible groove, I would recommend "A Sorta Fairytale" from the Welcome to Sunny Florida concert. Just superb musicianship all around!
This was the encore of my first Tori concert and was gobsmacked and exhilerated at the same time. Giving the space for the plyers to shine so brightly as the end to the concert was pure class
At the end section of this performance Matt looks like a man possessed. 🔥
Yup. IN THE ZONE!
My thoughts exactly. He's working hard!
Had the privilege to see this tour and be in "the pit" up against the stage (Akron 98). They ended the show with "The Waitress" (before several encores) and we all were possessed by the groove and every molecule of my body was on their wavelength. I remember it like it was yesterday. The band would drop in other goodies like in "She's Your Cocaine" they flexed with surprise by dropping in a little "Sweet Leaf" (Black Sabbath), mind blown. I am so glad I am seeing more posts appreciating Tori in general and how amazing "her band" takes her songs to another level. If she comes to your town, be there.
The secret is S P A C E. Rests are as important as notes. Placement and allowing for reverb and echo to contribute to mood not get lost or fill in a din. It’s essential to dynamics, to mood to atmosphere.
Waitress is my favorite "plugged" song and typically my go to when I'm sharing with others who don't know her music. I had the opportunity to see the 4 of them perform this song on two separate tours. it closed the main set prior to encore both times and was absolutely sublime.
Excellent commentary and I enjoyed watching your reactions! I think the “hang ten” version of Waitress that the four of them created is one of the most powerful sonic experiences I’ve ever had, and it happens every time I’ve heard it since the first time in ‘98.
1999 for me. I think this song re-wired my brain
Thank your for this great video and commentary. I was able to see Tori Amos this summer at Wolf Trap outside of DC. Just like this 1998 TV concert, she closed with "The Waitress." I am not exaggerating when I say that the final section of the song, when it just builds and builds and builds before a release, it looked like Amos was conjuring actual magic. If she had started levitating off her piano bench and the moon changed color . . . it wouldn't have surprised me. Actual magic when she performs this one live. Recordings capture the objective performance of this one (and the live recording of "The Waitress" from To Venus and Back is also similar to the TV concert), but not the subjective presence.
They lock in so well together. Tbh I am usually so transfixed on Tori I miss what the musicians are doing so thank you for shining a light on them.
I am so lucky I got to see so many shows with the holy trinity. Never seen anything like it
I've watched your Tori/Matt series 3 times now because I am a huge Tori fan. I just love your reaction so much, and today, it has made me so impressed about these musicians' abilities because Tori had been basically a solo artist until she released the album she was promoting in 1998. I'm just more in awe of their talents and what they accomplished.
Chills every-time I hear this version.
Absolutely incredible
Saw her on tour last year with the same bassist, Jon Evans. Still every bit the beast he was in 98!
Great great playing, spectacular musicality - whole band
Jon Evans rules on bass. Wish she’d bring back Caton on guitar.
JON EVANS!
Just listen to Not David Bowie. That ain't happening.
@@sidhedanu not while her domineering hubby plays sound engineer it isn’t. God his guitar playing is awful. Heck, I’d be good with getting a new guitarist altogether as long as ‘Mac Aladdin’ was no longer on the records.
This was a real pleasure to watch. You are the best reactor going, with teaching in your heart and a true understanding and appreciation of the art of music. You get music, and that's not true for many people. I loved it!
This reaction was so much fun to watch. I love your attention to detail and just seeing your sheer joy at the high levels of musicianship displayed by all the artists involved.
THANK YOU
She is SOOOOOO good. I saw her play this live in London at the Royal Albert Hall. Totally awe inspiring..... I was already in love with her but this took it to another level. Watch 'Crucify' live from Florida... beyond good and her best.
Really fantastic reaction video by the way!
Great reaction. Totally agree about what you said about letting those musicians go and play, but also with them and directing them from time to time. Reminds me of how Prince worked live. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Tori Amos when she was totally on top her game.
This is why she has been my favorite Female artist for 30 years!
I'm sure she called Matt the human drum loop. Love this set so much
I can't believe what I'm hearing. Never heard anything like this.
Tori is awesome! Her first 5 albums are amazing! Live, as you saw, she’s amazing, solo or with a band: she does know how to pick her musicians!
it almost reminds me of tears for fears for some reason (early).. and I love Tori for all other reasons... she is an artist, boys for pele is one of the best albums ever made, not to downgrade anything she has done.... but that album... this performance though, she shows all her past chops in one song, and the ending.. wow !
Tears for fears are total genius also David
@@AndrewRooneyDrums 100% agree, my first love was duran duran before I got into metal/death metal (I like your dabbling in that lane with 'extreme' drummers), if you want to go off the map try Voivod "Jack Luminous", King's X "Moanjam" (for the speed of the kick, jerry only uses one)...for extreme metal you are missing Bolt Thrower (4th crusade) , the contribution of Sepultura/Souldly in terms of tribal drumming (rathamatta, primitive, territory)... I can babble on forever....
Actually Tori and Tears for fears are linked with drummer Manu Katche (drummer on Boys For Pele and Seeds of Love)
@@mrlezebre I had forgotten about that ! thanks
I got so many chills watching you feel what I feel every single time I listen to this. They were such an amazing band 🖤
Life changing
great groove ! Love Tori..
YES!
The basist is Jon Evans. Tori, Jon and Matt have been touring together for many many years...and for Toris latest tour she wanted to work with Matt - but due to scheduling isssues he wasn't available and personally recommended Ash to her. Tori, Ash and Jon were amazing together - and it was so much fun to watch Jon giving Ash cues and them jamming together.
I love this song so much, but this particular performance of it is absolutely breathtaking! Such a vibe! And Matt's drumming is immaculate. Loved your take on it.
I hope to see more Tori Amos on your channel 💗 💫
3 so far! Lovin' it
Thank you for the 3 parts.
Guitarist is Steve Caton. Unfortunately retired from music but a great “texturist” with Tori.
I’ve seen Tori with Ash Soan in Toronto last year I was just in front of him, what a treat!
Really love to see your face and reactions while watching this. It’s really a stunning performance. I would also strongly suggest watching her „Welcome to Sunny Florida“ concert. Some better and more songs with one band member less. The band manages to create this quality and sound only with drums (Matt) and bass (Jon Evans). Try the concert, it is from 2003 - play Tombigbee or Cornflake Girl.
Jon Evans is the name of the bassist and he tours with her still. I just saw her live a couple weeks ago and he was right there with her. Drummer was Ash Soan. amazing performance of course.
The album version of the Waitress is great, but this song loves to be played live. That's Jon Evans on bass and he and Matt Chamberlain played on her most recent record. Playing together for years. Oh and that is Steve Caron on guitar! Amazing musicians. 🎶👍

Here she is 25 years later, still being absolutely amazing in her collaboration on stage. Still with bassist Jon Evans, drums, as you mentioned, Ash Soan. The intro is improvised live.
Ash has been doing so well and together they create fantastic sounds. BUT I'd have loooved to see Matt Chamberlain live with Tori, there is no way he can be replaced, to me he is the one who cocreated the whole sound of her music, together with Jon, with his genious.
she just did The Waitress again this year with John and Ash
The bassist name is Jon Evans.
Thanks Gwen!
Caught a lite sneeze is a great song to react to next from the Live Sessions...Matt and the band...superb.
I'm sure there are a lot of gems in there!
genius.
Agree :)
this is wild considering the studio version of this song is just over 3 minutes long
I remember her doing an interview around the time that she started working with the band and saying she needed musicians who could handle her dynamics. She had been playing solo on the piano and her performances had so much improvisation and dynamic changes as she responded to the emotions of the songs. She said she had to pick a level of musicians that could allow her to do that. Obviously she picked well. I think her performances during this era were the absolute peak of her musical career.
React to „caught a little sneeze” .. it’s mind blow and eargasmmm🎉
I have the utmost respect for Tori even if she isn't always my taste.
Nice video reaction. Just signaling to you the shift you may have missed, around 7'45" on the drumming. Also, the first signal Tori makes (7'20") is not to the band, it's to the stage production, to up the volume of the mike.
Love this live version of the waitress
Great musicians and artists like Tony Iommi and Tori Amos are their own brand and don't follow what others (including record company fools) tell them is "smart". Even though the majority of people who have no feel for music may temporarily buy it, it is not true great music, like we see here. Incredibly, the genius Edgar Allen Poe wrote a short essay on music and the evils of being derivative and formulaic, in 1835! Here's what he had to say about it:
One thing is certain - that the sentimental pleasure derivable from music is nearly in the ratio to its indefiniteness. Give to music any undue decision - imbue it with any very determinative tone - and you deprive it, at once, of its ethereal, its ideal, and, I sincerely believe, of its intrinsic and essential character. You dispel its dream-like luxury. You dissolve the atmosphere of the mystic in which its whole nature is bound up. You exhaust it of its breath of fairy. It then becomes of the Earth, earthy. It will not lose ALL of its power to please, but all that I consider to be the distinctiveness of that power. And to the over cultivated talent or to those without imagination, this deprivation will be a recommendation. A determination or formula of expression is sought - and sometimes by composers who should know better - is sought as a beauty, rather than rejected as a blemish. Thus we have, even from high authorities, attempts at absolute IMITATION in music. Who can forget, or cease to regret, the many errors of this kind into which some great minds have fallen, simply through overestimating the triumph of skill?
Lacking of this quality, no songwriter was ever truly popular, and for the reasons stated, no song writer need ever expect to be so.
Wow. Deep thoughts. Love it Mike
@@AndrewRooneyDrums 😊👍❤
Love your react! Saludos desde Argentina
No One. Does it. Like Tori!!
🤯
This should be exciting 💗 💫
Time for some more Baard! Search "Baard Kolstad / Simen Sandnes /Safri Duo - Played A Live". Lots of fun grooves,quite different from what you've heard by him (them) before. :)
Or this one! "Simen Sandnes & Baard Kolstad - ENERGY (Live Performance)"
Alucinante !! Matt y Tori..God !!!!!
I would put this group in the same talent realm as Rush...top tier!
I remember my ex playing this album and she got to the repetitive line" I believe in peace,I believe in peace bitch" and I was like wtf is this then actually started paying attention and was sold on Tori after that no Tori rabbithole would be complete without Cornflake girl and I always really liked The Mission as well
Have you heard her new touring drummer Ash Sloan? He does some interesting sounds that are still natural and ethereal without being as "tribal" with his drums. I don't know why Matt didn't return and I almost didn't go to the last tour, as a result. Thoughts?
I did a podcast with Ash Soan.
One of my fave players in the World!
NZ Drummer Podcast
@AndrewRooneyDrums I was equally impressed! She was so sweet and welcoming to him, and I totally dug some of the authentic sounds he created out of varying objects that captured the heart of the songs. I hope he does all future tours!
11/10
i normally hate to say this, but if an artist is underrated, then tori... she is in the top 3 female artist ever for me...
You really should check out Syndey Taeib of Atlantis Chronicle look the song We all saw it coming! Amzing drummer. His groove is insane you will love it!
No one reacts to this song, and they should!
If anybody has an equal or better live recommendation I'd love to check it out.
This is unreal
The ending part when they are all just sharing that build up … not to be inappropriate but … my goodness 😳🫠
She looks at Matt. There is respect, etc. I call it "simpatico".
Si! Estoy de acuerdo :)
Can we just talk real quickly about Tori?.. Am I the only one with 👀??..
Gee , what's she doing at 14:24 ? It looks familiar 🤔
Do Raspberry Swirl when Matt plays an oil drum czcams.com/video/BZEh3BTtLfA/video.html&ab_channel=JupiterCalling
YES!! It's another phenomenal track! 🎉 🎨 🎉
think thats Larry Carlton, steely dans guitarist
NO!!!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums that's what the internet says
No. It’s Steve Caton.
@@steveh7508 Don't believe everything you read. It is not him. You can just look at a photo and know. Research!
