hi all,
was browsing on the web in search of some cd's with Vincent( [img]wink.gif[/img] )that may be interesting to listen to.
everybody knows about his work with FZ,JM and the others but i would like to know if you guys know any cd's from,say less-known artists,that feature Vinnie.
stuff like Kenny Pore's "SEssions vol.1" which is not a master piece but it's quite smooth and Vinnie plays some tasty gadd-ish stuff on it.
i heard about this band "kimotion" a lot.a la Zappa so was i said,but i never got a chance to check it out.
have you guys ever listened to it?
brandon fields,nelson kole..i know he recorded for those dudes but are those cd's worth buyin'??
ok fellows,need some input here.
thanks [img]wink.gif[/img]

the Brnadon Fields stuff kills, a lesser known disc VERY hard to find is Bill Meyers Images.
Tom Scott desire
Gino Vannelli nightwalker
Jeff Beal 3 graces
Megadeth system has failed
Joni Mitchell wild things run fast
Asia aura

how is the JEff BEal?think i get a copy of that one.
what B.Fields should i go for?
i see a lot of stuff with VInnie on audiophile's and cdbaby's websites like west coast fusion and i always feel like i should get some of them but then....there's too many of 'em.it's Vinnie all over the f....n' place.
how can he be everywhere?
still,how about those greg mathieson and lesser knowns cats?is the music good?
"kimotion"?? anybody checked this one out? [img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]

Hi drumaddix,
I think you would enjoy listening to Kimo William's and Kimotion's "Tracking". "Buffalo" on this CD contains a beautiful drum solo by Vinnie.

There are quite a few recordings that VC did in the 80's that are not well known. Some that come to mind that I hunted down in the mid 80's are;
1 - Time Zone - Jakob Magnussen (young fusion keyboardist)
2 - Digital Madness - Barnaby Finch (features a long open solo with VC)
3 - Yamaha Studio Demo Disc (Vinnie actually sings on that one with Nathan East)
4 - That Was Then - Wishful Thinking (amazing playing)
5 - Pages - Pages (very Steely Danish)
6 - Mudd Cakes - Tiger Okashi (Trumpet)
There are a few more that escape me at the moment but if I remember them I'll post here again.

The Wishful Thinking cd is good, he shares drum duties with Michael Barsimonto. VERY hard to find, try www.half.com

How about Don Grolnick's two track live recording of Vinnie with an Orchestra?? That was state of the art back when it was recorded, and needless to say, it difficult to nail anything on the 1st take..... unless..... of course...... you're the professor.

The 20th Century Impressions was released on cd a few years ago, I had the vinyl too, bought when I was at MI.

I have both 'Tiger Okoshi's-Mudd Cake and 'Bill Meyers-Images' on cd(original cd's) and since they're out of print, i'd be happy to send you copy's. I also have the J.Beal and Wishful Thinking ones(originals) as well. Just pm me. If anyone has any rare live 'Vinnie'stuff, i'd really like to pick up anything i may not have !

Hey Nite,
I used to have "Time Zone" on cassette but have sinced lost it. Do you have it on cassette or vinyl? Also, I have another Tiger Okoshi album called "Tiger's Baku". Vinnie shares drum duties on it with some other cats. Unfortunately, they don't have track listings so you have to kind of guess which ones are Vinnie. I have the Fowler Brothers Album "Breakfast with Dinosaurs" on tape as well. Vinnie is on that one. I haven't checked it out in a long time but as I recall there was one wacked tune with Vinnie on it. Also, Jeff Richman's "Himalaya" album. Vinnie and Steve Smith are on this one.

Wow, you've done your homework.
I have all those as well. There was also a rare one by a young keyboardist named Indra Lesmana that had Vinnie doing some great playing.
Oh yea, a couple more were an early Kiko Matsui and a Kenny Pore album that also had Bissonete. Both were real nice albums as well. Vinnie managed to also play on a few cheese ball albums that I unfortunately bought....
-
Hey Nite,
You remind me a lot of a buddy of mine. We used to go seek out any albums with Vinnie. I remember the Indra album. [img]wink.gif[/img] Yeah, we used to catch a few duds as well. The Kenny Pore CD was nice.

'Last Days of the Century' by Al Stewart (1988) has Vinnie on all tracks.
Great playing, even if you don't happen to like Al.
