I love Gavin because he understands that drums are a supporting instrument in music. That's why he is a musician not just a drummer. I so tired of watching drum videos were is just a display of chops with no musical context. Keep it up.

see, that's one of my top gripes about Gavin. watch some Billy Cobham in Mahavishnu O on YT. DRUMS ARE A VIOLENT INSTRUMENT. When someone plays it like they're a receptionist in a dentist's office, it breaks my heart! Like Gavin has NO FIRE in him whatsoever.

@@professorcranium4792 Oh I get it now, you're that guy, Dumpy Goodness, who keeps accusing me of "avoiding the argument" or being "either or" and yet doing the same? It's up to you how the instrument is played. Masterful playing isn't just about violence, and certainly, violence CAN be excluded from drumming. It's about opinion, not you.

@professorcranium4792 3 жыл бұрын

@@warrenoids PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW VIOLENCE CAN BE EXCLUDED FROM DRUMMING. Name just ONE drummer who NEVER hits his drums or cymbals! ("Hitting things is NOT a violent act"! Um, it's ALWAYS a violent act. Even a light smack = violence!) In my first band, I got two big Body Massagers and had my drummer use them on the skins, and i'd say that VIBRATION (which would make the drum HUM!) does NOT count as violence. (Or you could argue it's VERY agressive micro-shoving back and forth, ha ha.) Now I'm wondering if you're a Policeman, because this is the first time in my life I saw a human say "hitting something isn't violence!" "Yeah i punched my wife in the face 20 times when I was drunk...but that wasn't VIOLENCE!" (Or...."Okay, hitting a drum or cymbal is violence....but drumming doesn't mean you're REPEATEDLY hitting drums or cymbals!")

Gavin is an extremely intelligent and gifted drummer! His sound and performance are always spot on! As technical as he is, his feel is always musical and tasteful! There really isn't anyone else that sounds like him period!..entirely in a class of his own! Good job Gavin, you're one heck of an inspirationto u s all! The Zildjian's sound "Sweet" indeed!

@dumpygoodness4086 3 жыл бұрын

I think he's TOO tasteful. (Drummers need MORE ENERGY and FIRE than GH's too-polite drumming. I love when GH gets clever and tasteful, but too often he seems to be phoning it in rather than PUSHING HIMSELF, like a Billy Cobham would do.)

@JanPatrickLucas 3 жыл бұрын

@@dumpygoodness4086 A lesson learned is that drummers sound better when they hold back a bit. Pushing the threshold has it's place but not condusive when serving the song. You are entitled to your opinion, obviously, but I cannot fault Gavin in any manner. I'm simply humbled by the genius he is.

@dumpygoodness4086 3 жыл бұрын

@@JanPatrickLucas you're talking about in Mild Mid-Tempo POP music. MY POINT is that I'd love to see GH apply himself to a project where he PUSHES HIMSELF and is more clever and less conventional. There's a billion DELICIOUS drummers already out there. Listen to "Long Distance Runaround" by YES, and tell me why Bruford's aggressive drums lack taste.

@@dumpygoodness4086 the one thing Gavin‘s drumming is not, is being conventional. And if you want to see him go for it, watch some of his Porcupine Tree Live Performances, for example Hate Song or Anesthetize. Not only is his drumming extremely tasteful but also brilliantly balanced, in my opinion. Obviously, the drumming in LDR is also tasteful, but the nuances Gavin webs into his playing are a whole different story in my opinion.

I've never witnessed anyone like Gavin Harrison. His timing is always spot on, he's very creative in music, knows his instruments and music like no other. I mean, all drummers have their own style, but Gavin Harrison can go beyond most within the halls of music. When I first saw him play on KZfaq, it was like the day I witnessed Neal Peart of Rush. Gavin blew my mind with his talent, timing and creativeness to even exceed that of Neal and I've been doing my best to watch Gavin's performances ever since. I love the way Gavin can improve and improvise while drumming to fill in more gaps and make it even better and more tasteful than anyone I've ever seen in my life. Thank you Gavin Harrison for coming into our lives, being a powerful inspiration to others in the field of music and my hope is that one day I can see you in a concert performance with the other greats you perform with. You are excellent with The Porcupine Tree and The Pineapple Thief. Which is all I know you're in. I haven't looked it up yet on what other projects you're into, but I plan on it in time. Thank you again for your hard work, Mr Harrison. ✌️&❤️ To you and yours, always.

Gavin has become one of my favorites. From his amazing abilities with his playing to the sound of his drum set! This guy is phenomenal! Always click on new content, and am never disappointed! Being a drummer myself for 40+ years, I have grown to like certain drummers, from Vinnie to Marco to Dave to Virgil. But Gavin shot up REAL QUICK when I discovered him a while back as one of my all-time faves! My favorites are (in no particular order): Steve Smith, Vinnie Colaiuta, Virgil Donati, Dave Weckl, Tony Williams, Billy Cobham, Marco Minnemann and of course, Gavin!!! Love this guy's style and incredible playing! And being one of the drummers for King Crimson ain't a bad thing either!
