    Vinny is the reason I started playing drums. It all started with the Mob Rules, one of the best albums of all time. Everyone mentions all these influential drummers well he was mine.

    5:31he's doing that unique grip of his that lets him rest his thumb. I get terrible friction burns when I do that
    He's such a musical drummer in this style, he puts down a lot of musical ideas. I was watching one of his streams, and he was talking favorite licks from Jon Bonham, and he cited many of them coming from Max Roach first. Saw a few of them in this performance

    he did a clinic at a store i used to work at in the 90's. he brought a guitar player and bass player, we didn't mic him up and he was...and still is the loudest and heavest hitter i've ever seen. love his playing.

    • @devinw5150
      @devinw5150 Před 5 lety +3

      Same here. I hosted him at our store and we had mics on every drum. After the first song, we had cut all of them off. We should’ve known what was coming when he removed several chain links on the bass pedal so the beater was as far away from the head as possible so he could kick it as hard as possible. He was loud asf!

    What an awesome player with a great sound! People say he reminds them of Bonham but Vinnie's got his own vibe going on. Those quick 32nd note fills on slow tempo songs are his thing and very recognizable. He's got Bonham's chops and feel but with some additional stuff off his own.

    As a studio drummer of several decades myself, I put him next to three of my other primary drum influences, the others being Neil Peart, Alex Van Halen and then Nicko McBrain, but Vinnie had what I'd call more advanced drum fills than all of them except for Peart. So to me, that says a lot, especially for the time frame being the 1980's. Very significant.

    Very "melodic" drumming, and indeed, as someone already pointed out, tons of lovely fills, that you can hear much better here than burried in the bed of decibels produced by the other Dio members. Of course, there are many good drummers who can cover this, but it's quite another thing to "invent" all these decorations for the first time. Aping is easy, creating is yet another thing. Good job Vinny !
