Some Vinnie bits

[FuseU1]

Klemme is correct - they are from the tune "All Blues," off Los Lobotomys' CD "The Legendary Lobotomys Live Album"...their version of [or tribute to] the Miles Davis tune...disc says '89, altho it's quite possible it was recorded sometime in '88.

They are two of Vinnie's trades [the first & fourth trades] right after Luke's gtr solo...trades #2 & 3 are darn wicked too...[VC on the whole tune, actually, of course.]

If I rem correctly, these clips were originally on a now-defunct "Vinnie Colaiuta tribute" site; ...Pitt.edu, perhaps?

Too bad whoever set up the clips didn't include the bars or so beforehand to set up the groove of the clips [even though you can hear it once you listen carefully]...I "hate it when that happens" [img]wink.gif[/img] ...set up the clips / establish the groove! [don't just cover the lick; establishing the groove - at least 1 to 4 bars of it beforehand/preceding it - shows that much more of how hot it is!] [img]cool.gif[/img]

If Vinnie is on 2 of the 10 tunes, the other one must be the rock-shuffle "Smell Yourself"...I can't hear Vinnie being on anything other but...'Smell' feels a lot more like him if he's indeed on two of them [since my copy does'nt list the indy trax / players {:c( ]

I always thought it was Lenny Castro on congas & perc, not Jeff [?]

There are some transcriptions of those trades (all blues)... i've seen them on MD and on thedrumland.com . I'm not sure about this but i think i've seen two different transcriptions of those same trades.

[FuseU1]

Yes. In Modern Drummer, Apr '92 ish...transcribed by Jeff Wald, under the "Drum Soloist" column / section, pp. 66-7...

I have that T2F disc thx to an HOD brutha, here...

While I am thankful to have it, as it is a decent disc w some cool stuff on there, there is nothing on it that even rivals that one tune All Blues...& the drumming on Document & [what little I've heard from] the Dyno 4 / Potato / Mathieson gigs is WAY more mind-blowing [not that that's what it's about, i know]...but I just wasn't as impressed w the T2F disc as were a lot of folks [as i am w the above mentioned]...

As you can see, I likes my 'Shredder Vinnie' too... [img]wink.gif[/img]

Vinnie Shredda-uta-man!

I would definitely agree that the Dyno4/Mathieson/Landau/Laboriel is far above the T2F. It is my all time fav--nothing better!! [img]cool.gif[/img] I feel lucky to have it!!!

Hey Zombywoof...hope u have a good time around here, its an amazing place the first time u see it.

Does anyone know which Warren Cucurullo CD the 3rd clip came from?

[tyson82]

S.P, the disc is called: Thanks to Frank. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

Isn't that picture from the video that Sting did for the Mercury Falling CD? I remember seeing them in Sting's home (Like the Ten S's tales) and they were sitting at a table eating for Sting's birthday... Vinnie had the green maple customs...Is that right???? Does anybody have this video? Or what's it called?
