Watch Liberty DeVitto performing Billy Joel’s “Allentown.” 🎬

Liberty DeVitto was Billy Joel's drummer for over 20 years, providing the iconic backbeat for a generation. Today, in the drum department, we've asked Alex Cohen, Ramon Montager, and Jared Falk to record their versions of a classic song. We'll witness Liberty's real-time reactions to these different renditions and find out who played it best.

[RU-HDD--HVN]

How dare he play such a solid straight beat to a popular song? It's like he owns oh, he does.

Liberty! Absolutely, crushing it. One of the most underrated drummers. Play on!

Meat and potatoes of drums. Nothing more hearty and filling to the ears.

[Vonlicktenstien]

You can tell how long he’s been playing by the way he hits his high hats. Something you can’t teach.

I can watch this over and over again. So entertaining!

Liberty is an OG and Billy Joel can suck it for the way he treated him years ago.

[Adam-clxr]

Extremely solid! And I love the all-out body effort getting everything out of that entire kit. He’s got a heavy hand with complete control. A lot of drummers just have a heavy hand. I guess that’s why he works for Billy Joel.

[bryangates]

[hotlanta]

He does those cymbals combination hits so fast and it fits perfectly

[erichirsch]

He’s still got it !! 72 and drumming like this.. Billy made a big blunder big time!!

[TribeOfGaia]

To me this kind of playing drums is like a breath of fresh air!! I respect the technical capability’s of almost every drummer nowadays, but often it overrules the magic of just playing the song from the heart. The spaces between the notes, carrying the energy of the lyrics without interfering ❤
