This is the tastiest drum solo I ever heard.

People may not realize how original Steve is since he's been so imitated. The man really created a new vocabulary.

I like Steve's emphasis on dynamics, rhythm and groove and not just filling every space with a flurried spasm of gibberish.

I just don't think people realize all the different rhythms and time keeping this guy does in one simple drum solo. It's just incredible.

Every strike has a purpose. Steve Gadd is amazing.

oldenmusicianco.

for me:steve is the greatest drummer of all time because, his playing it's not just technical but has a deep soul

avdonkpass

This has made me pick up the sticks after 40 years. Absolutely mesmerising

chriscursons

This mans let 2:27 pass by before he smashed the crash like most of us would within the first note of our own drum solos. BIG. BAD. Steve GADD.

And people wonder why he’s a legend…this, this is why.

Steve has inspired us all to be better. Truly exceptional among masters.

I've always heard of Steve Gadd, but I had no idea how much of a Master Technician he is. I'm a self taught drummer and had the usual suspects of drummers as inspirations. After hearing this dude play, I'm barely in pre-school. My mind and ears totally blown.

I know we don't compare, there's so many amazing drummers but his grooves n dynamics just make u want to practice, his whole body is part of it
