Jul 29, 2011 - @catfish1260 Good observation,but I was really surprised when someone demonstrated on youtube an important short solo from Tarkus that Palmer always plays and then showed Rich playing the EXACT same solo years ago.It was definitely plagerism,he could have at least changed one note,the timing,the feel,something.

Aug 1, 2011 - this guy is amazing i've watched so many of his solos and never get bored.

Aug 6, 2011 - i just came accross this and i was reading the stuff above, from a yr. ago its a good thing i didnt see it then. travis barker? it should be fucking illegal to mention his name in the same breath or sentance as carl palmer, are u fucking serious. carl is a god, and i dont even consider this as 1 of carl's best solo's.

Aug 9, 2011 - Il y a Carl Palmer, il y a Bill Bruford, il y a Phil Collins et il y a les autres...

ProgressiveTool Says:

Aug 18, 2011 - all these arguements rather if neil pert or mike portnoy is better makes me wonder, what if you put carl into the equation?

TomN2010 Says:

Sep 16, 2011 - Carl Palmer is no Neil Peart and Carl Palmer is no Travis Barker and Carl Palmer is no Buddy Rich....Carl Palmer is Carl Palmer---its not just DRUMS--its PERCUSSION. Even Neil Peart said he had to go back to the basics and learn to re-drum and get the precussion part of drumming. Thats what CP brings to the Kit....Use It All...Not just for show

TomN2010 Says:

Sep 16, 2011 - The Solo (Carl Palmer) look it up A solo drum solo

MrCarverf Says:

Sep 16, 2011 - He is still one of the top dogs!!!!

Sep 23, 2011 - @TomN2010 How many drummers does it take to screw in a light bulb? 20,000. One to screw it in the rest to say Neil Peart could have done it better, :-)

Sep 23, 2011 - @flatlandsapex I agree in your assement of Buddy's stick technique. Buddy did a lot of double stroke stuff on the kit. Check out some of his solos you'll notice he tunes them up high for better rebound which, in my opinion, doesn't get the best tone from the drum all the time. Which probably explains why his drums didn't sound beautiful.

Sep 23, 2011 - What CP did was very inovative. Tocotta is a percussive work of art. I never get tired of hearing it. His colaboration with Moog in triggering sounds on the synth from the drums was so ahead of it's time.

Oct 1, 2011 - Interesting tuning on those toms

nightsniper45 Says:

Oct 6, 2011 - toms sound awful,weak.

nodrush80 Says:

Oct 8, 2011 - Geez, there's always idiots comparing their favorite drummer to someone else's, I'm not even an ELP fan and can see what an awesome drummer Carl is. To critcize Rich and Peart is stupid as well. I do agree that barker has nothing to do with drumming.

Oct 18, 2011 - FAIR..........AT BEST...........

Limelight05 Says:

Oct 26, 2011 - Palmer is God.

TheStopmoCo Says:

Nov 10, 2011 - @whokeithmoon You can in all honesty do better than him?

Hertsman50 Says:

Nov 12, 2011 - Palmer still blows away drummers half his age.

MORGANNAW8974 Says:

Dec 6, 2011 - I remembered my friend "boligoma". He used to say, Carl Palmer was his virtual drum teacher. Only listening CP, my friend learnt to play. He was a ELP fan. Wherever he is.

Harperlarp Says:

Dec 9, 2011 - That solo was amazing but I couldn't help but laugh when he just started making random noise with the gongs.

kole11000 Says:

Dec 30, 2011 - i think the gongs are his "mark"  , I would love to make my kit sound like that... minus gongs , of course.. he's got talent

MrKurbsyde Says:

Jan 11, 2012 - @flatlandsapex Palmer is one of the BEST. Emerson is (can we say trained in the classical arts) beyond. Gregg Lake is (it took some time to like his voice, I was born in 80, so I had a bunch of voices to compare it to) great. Watching ELP live is insane, not as good as YES, but maybe in a different category?
