Hey look, Chad Wackerman (Dr Sharl’s favorite) and Terry Bozzio (my favorite) in a competition over who gets to hit the most beats per millisecond. Who wins? Close call:
Via Night After Night who calls it “drum porn”.

The “drum porn” description seems accurate considering Terry’s facial expressions.

wackerman is a fantastic drummer, but bozzio fucking rules when it comes to this polyrhythmic orchestral drumset shit.
his setup, his concepts, and his execution are superior to wackerman’s in every respect.
but the best drum duel on youtube is the one between steve gadd, vinnie colaiuta, and dave weckl. vinnie rules that one.

zappa had the best taste in drummers. bozzio and colaiuta are both his discoveries.

Yep, Terry-Ted has the judges’ decision, based on his superior spoo-blaster-face technique … well, I ain’t REALLY queer, but …

don’t worry, jim - if bozzio can bring out the queer in john smothers, he can bring out the queer in anyone.

One step further.
Really not ” difficult”, just making use of the regular , ordinary drumset :
Joey Baron. A ( jewish ) drummer from Virginia:

Possibly the greatest of them all.

Amazing display of skill and talent,
but I don’t find drum music very stimulating,
generally. This is no exception.
September 2nd, 2007 at 11:56 pm »
I find some drum & percussion only music very stimulating… but not this drivel… please!! don’t press play!! oh no!! zzzzz…. zzzz…… zzzzz…..

no wonder they called it drum porn– it’s 2 guys jerking off each other

Why people always needs actual notes?
I love this duet.
September 3rd, 2007 at 8:29 pm »
Does it happen to be allowed to add one comment?
Music for percussion ( only).
- Just have a look at contemporary classical music: they’re doing it since 60 years. Varèse was one of the masters.
- In jazz : honour to Max Roach ( he recently passed away). M’ Boom Re.

there’s no accounting for personal taste, but when you have to put music into little compartmentalized ghettos according to instrumental groupings, YOU LOSE.
i believe varese considered his ‘ionisation’ a piece of music - NOT ‘drum music’. and bozzio tunes his toms diatonically, which enables him to play melodically.
if you can’t hear that shit when he takes his solos over wackerman’s grooves, YOU LOSE.

I think FZ could have had some fun composing a duet for these two. He would have used some more adventurous time signatures and taken full advantage of Terry’s ‘melodic’ capabilities. if only…

(not forgetting a real drum-duet between Frank and Jimmy Carl on YCDTOSA vol.5…)
September 4th, 2007 at 6:23 pm »
(…or frank’s fake drum-duet ‘the clap’ from ‘chunga’s revenge’…)

Can’t believe Bozzio joined Korn!

“i believe varese considered his ‘ionisation’ a piece of music - NOT ‘drum music’. “
Does Ionisation use ONLY drums as instruments?
I hear sirens, too. Listen more closely.
Also, an important thing to consider is that when someone uses the word GENERALLY, that word means IN MOST CASES or USUALLY.
So if a person reads my post about Bozzio/Wackerman and concludes that Scott hates all drum music, they LOSE.
Read more closely.

scott - from the tone of most of your posts, i believe you are slightly unhinged and quite the narcissist (usually)…which i think is a hoot. beyond that, i (generally) make no conclusions as to who or what you are and how you feel about anything.
but i did make use of your phrase ‘drum music’, because it brought to mind a common attitude and specific misconception (in most cases) regarding percussion-based music, as if it were seperate from the world of music.
sorry dude.

I STILL can’t believe Bozzio joined Korn. Luckily he’s left them now!
