62 years old! What a freak of nature...incredible energy and power in his playing. He clearly keeps himself in tip-top physical condition and it shows.

Every snare hit blows his hair back. I love it!

I just love Tommy’s commitment he’s playing the same as if he was performing in front of ten thousand with white snake ,it’s brilliant

Tommy Aldridge playing "Amphibia" (Patrick Rondat). The recording of this album (Amphibia) is a great memory ! The bass-Patrice Guers, guitars-Patrick Rondat, and drums-Tommy Aldridge, were recording live at Ferber Studios in Paris.

I'm glad Tommy is still a great drummer, he's a legend and he earned that.

That is some seriously heavy hitting! One of the best rock drummers around.

Tommy..I thank you for everything ive learned from you....You are the Ultimate Rock Drummer....

Just blasting away! Great to see the energy, the passion that comes through in his playing. Still got the cymbals set up flat.

Class act...no attitude. Inspirational.

Power and passion! Tommy plays the drums with a melody. This man right here was my inspiration for learning double bass as a kid, and he's still inspiring to watch and hear.

badass oldschool heavy metal dramming!!!

Groovy drumming, also progressive

Been a fan since I first heard “Jim Dandy” as a kid.

This song is one of the greatest rock instrumentals . Patrick Rondat - Amphibia 1,2,3,4,5,6 parts and Tommy play pt.4

That is me crouched down behind his floor tom, filming. I am a fellow Yamaha endorsee...and am switiching over to these drums asap!

i ve followed tommy since 80 s my favorite drummer and l love to ear him on the album vinnie moore mind s eye his a master

Always the showman..even playing for a bunch of suits.

63 years old, and still hitting hard, headbanging, keeping rhythm like a clock, and most of all having fun! wow! and kudos to patrick rondat too!

at the age of 62, Tommy's still beating the sunlight out of this kit. a SOLUTE to you TOMMY!!

Tommy just fucking blows me away. Probably my favorite drummer of all time. I remember him playing for Ozzy, Whitesnake etc. Arms swinging around so fast it just looked like a blur and that big hair-do whipping about like a tornado was running over him lol! Total asskicking!

And this is at over 60 years of age as well. Awesome.

SO SOLID. Holy hell......Tommy is one of rock and roll greats.

his hair has its own gravitational pull and zip code.

LEGEND!!!! Have seen him live in both Black Oak and when he was in Blizzard of Ozz.

62 years and still a kickass drummer

i pretty shure the 12 dislikers are bald

His time, his precision and execution is so damn good ... one of my favs

love passion of playing music is so real just listen to him play

Wow. So happy to see Mr Aldridge still killin it. A legend for sure \m/

love the guy ! amazing attitude and an amazing drummer!!

Tommy Aldridge and mike who finished the A7x album are the great ones

God bless that snare head....

One of the hardest hittin drummers of all time! Love TA!

WOW keep on jamming Tommy that's why your the greatest. Right here says it all I would like to see him once again on the Yamaha Hot Red Power Recording Custom. The best set for the best drummer.... AWSOME.......

he will always be a hero to me.

THAT WAS FUCKING AWSOME!!!!!!!!! HIS MONSTEROUS ENERGY IS INSANE!!!

These boys are the best in the world

Tommy rocks. He's nothing if not consistent. No one better at what he does.

For people that just think hes a basher go listen to Pat Travers Tried to Believe. He can be whatever the song needs....loved him since Black Oak Arkansas.

Amazing! a true legend!

'Charlie Chuck' just gets better on those drums man! what a legend!

Age means nothing as long as you stay in shape, he doesn't look his age for sure, playing rock keeps you young. Staying active keeps you young.

The best, I saw Tommy with Thin lizzy in Dublin amazing show

Mr Aldridge.... A legend

Underrated Drummer in my eyes

That’s me, crouched down behind him, filming.

Amazing!!! The best rock drummer !!!!

One of the greats!

Still rockin for sure, and still sitting almost 18 inches from his snare

You pray that you find a drummer this good

If I can play half as hard and long as that (the hair is already not even close to being an option) I will be a very happy older man. Brilliant passion and energy.

You do understand that he was 62 years of age when he did this. Yes 62.

Amazing! Be interesting to know what people thought of this awesome stuff when he played 800/900 years ago.

I guess this must feel the same like visiting your first F1 race.

Legend drummer 🥁love ,super ❤️🙏🎼🎶🎵✌️🍀👌🇮🇱

Nice groove Tommy gun

It's Patrick Rondat. He's a French prog/metal guitarist. Best known for his work with the band Elegy and as guitarist for Jean-Michel Jarre. He even did a G3 tour in Europe and Japan with Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, and Jean Michel Jarre on keys. He has released several solo discs of instrumental shred guitar and this song comes from one of those discs...Amphibia.

Love Yamaha, and Tommy.

Томми Олдридж как всегда лучший СУПЕР !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tommy look like a lion in the battle !!!!

The ending just WOW!!!

just great. love it love it love it.

I've played with him many times on the radio. playing Whitesnake Ozzy Black oak Arankas

he is the best rock drummer

I like His playing style

Yeah he killed it!

stellare.

Mate, he's still has it all....at 63!!!

Outstanding!!

Dude has one level. 100% on. His playing is so open and heavy. The only drummer imo that could hang with Bonham.

great job man

wow Tommy is a monster

lots of guys can play consistent...no chops is being able to do something difficult consistently being able to master the use of being ahead of a measure or behind it. Talented people like matt garstka arent just playing paradiddles that is insane talent.

Great job, Tommy. Is that Bernhard C. standing right in front of your kit? Whoever he is he's really enjoying it. You're always an inspiration to me and I thank you for that, from one of your biggest fans. God bless.

the father, double bass.

Great !! on a Patrick Rondat tune !! awesome !!

Amazing

Amazing!

Legend!

My master

Legend!...

OMG! That was the Best Cymbal Catching I've ever saw @ 6:42! Doing it with 2 hands is a breeze. But 1? I need to practice more.

Back in Whitesnake!

Impossible watch this video and not shake the head. \m/

Tommy is an INCREDIBLE DRUMMER and drums the way you are supposed to…………….by beating the SHIT OUT OF THE DRUMS!

Master!

Damn he's hitting those crashes so hard you can't hear the intervals. I understand this is a phone recording but damn, how could you be in the same room???

As Im only 33 , I know this man was a legend before I was born. Anybody who doesn't recognize is musically ignorant. Along with Bonham, Ward, Appice, on and on and on these guys paved the way for guys like Hoglan, Carey, Lombardo, Dette, Bostaph and all the extreme metal drummers out there and all the guys today that are using triggers. They all learned from watching these guys. Get your shit together metal heads and rockers. Some of you disappoint me with your stupidity. Speed Metal wouldn't be where it is today without INGO from Helloween but rarely is he mentioned because kids today are to busy listening to shitty djent and techno core crap. Educate yourself on the past to make informed decisions about the future. Music included.

Your drum solos for Whitesnake are good

He looked so so different from the ordinary people around him.

TOTAL SHOW

Man he really pound the SHIT of those drums!! What a god!

Holy shit!!!!!!!!!!

MAESTRO !!!!

I just wish he would project a little more.

Classic, not my kind of music, but this guy is classic.

Tommy is one of my all-time favorite players from when I first saw him out with Black Oak. However this heavy exhibition just don't do nothing for me. It don't show nothing of what an amazing drummer he really is. Stick twirls were somewhat entertaining but that was about it. Thanks for posting

Fucking great, the way drums should be played

In my view, he plays with more Rage than Passion. too hard!!!

here is a show drummers, and there are drummers playing in bands. These are two different niches in the rock culture. I prefer the drummers of musical groups. These guys do Easten creativity.
