I've had multiple Yamaha products, from bikes to snow machines to musical instruments of several types, including piano, keyboard, trap set, trombone, and several guitars.

Here are a few drum vids to check out -- a few are old, but still REALLY GOOD.

Check out the left hand action on the grand master, Buddy Rich!

Still one of my favorites -- 12 years old -- Tony Royster, Jr.

phil collins was still an amazing drummer.....tastiest drummer I have ever heard..........the guy was one of a kind.....jazz background....all the best drummers learned from Jazz drummers....and Buddy Rich was the first of them.......how many out there remember Brand "X".......79...CNE stadium.....Brand"X"...Max Webster..and Genesis....."And Then There Were Three " tour.............follow you follow me....topped the charts every where....and Phil Collins was recognized as a singer.........Genesis has sold more albums than any band in the History of modern music.........

....how many out there remember Brand "X"....

Sure do mate, got all their albums, saw them in the Students Union in Manchester.   Fantastic drummer, very underated as a drummer and most people think of him as a singer.
Billy Cobham is another great drummer. Spectrum is just brilliant.

Great pick Dan....Neil took Rush to where they are........they were going nowhere with John Rutsy.....lets not forget Stewart Copeland or Bill Bruford.......true story...Phil was supposed to join YES...but the band decided on Bruford  ...........I noticed Carl Palmer............excellent choice!!!....A time where the rock stars actually had to know how to play an instrument.... ...hey has anyone seen the the video when 18 yr old Phil Collins was singing and drumming with Flaming youth...check out "Changes" ON YOUTUBE

In high school (early 90s) a buddy loaned me a record from a band called 'Brand X' called Unorthodox Behaviour that his brother had left at his house and he didn't have a record player.  We could see that Phil Collins was the drummer, but had no idea what the music would be like as the album is from 1976, the same year Genesis made Trick of the Tail, which neither of us enjoyed.  My ears didn't know what to think when I heard this first track.  Still one of my all time favorite grooves from one of my all time favorite albums.  Brand X never made anything like it again.  I've probably listened to the album over 1000 times and I still occasionally catch something new:

Brand X - Nuclear Burn (1976)

[FJ111200]

This is turning into the Brand X thread.
We were always into Unorthodox Behaviour, then  my mates big brother in high school said listen to Moroccan Roll if you think Unorthodox Behaviour is good. Then that blew us away.
Why Should I Lend You Mine When You've Broken Your's Off Already    The dick has said Why I Should...etc
