Classic Festival Solos
What are your favorite drum solos from classic rock?
OK…..from my picks you may deduce that I am an old fart. Nevertheless……I submit……Santana……..Soul Sacrifice from Woodstock (you got the video there)…….then….Clive Bunker , Jethro Tull at the Isle of Wight festival….(you also got the video there)………Ten Years After…”Boogie On”…….off of “Alvin Lee & Co.”……I’ll stop there. Did you know that Keith Moon (as reported in his biography) didn’t care a hoot for drum solos. He mainained that the drummers sole responsibility was to do the rythym thng for the band. (Of course hearing Moon on drums backing up the Who…it’s almost like drum solos……incredilbe).
Santana’s Soul Sacrifice (Michael Shrieve) is amazing easily my favorite rock one, I have the Woodstock film and I love watching that (his hands turn into blurs near the end, so sweet). I also dig Moby Dick by Zep (John Bonham) and all the Neil Peart ones esp the extended YYZ. Ginger Baker’s Toad is pretty good too.
Although these are jazz, I also really enjoy Buddy Rich (super fast, he is the drumming god), Joe Morello’s Take Five solo, and Louie Bellson.
I really miss drum solos, they have kind of gone out of style and sometimes almost unnecessary in the extreme metal I listen to because the drums are so fast and technical and showoffy in every song.
