I don't like Brufords drums, I prefer traditional ones.

A bit quack, but I like Jon Anderson...

Amazing band x

I remember hearing this for the first time as a young teenage drummer and thinking: “What the hell is going on here?!?! This makes NO sense.” Of course, being young and stupid, I had bought into the Palmer/Bonham/Paice/et al. school of drum soloing, i.e., Faster/Louder/Longer = Better. Thankfully, we all grow up. This solo is a milestone in progressive music, a real gem (despite Dr. Bill’s lovable self-deprecation). Make no mistake, there is genius bubbling up from this 22-yr-old, and I doubt it was merely the coffee and adrenaline. Bravo.

Love every second of it, especially the four-bar segue into the outro. Also, the way the band ended this song is brilliant.

I just love this song's atmosphere.

This is ridiculously amazing. Pure art!

I still remember hearing this for the first time, in my early teens, and thinking: “What in the hell is going on here? This makes NO sense.” The metric of the day had been established by Buddy Rich and carried on by the likes of Carl Palmer, Ian Paice, John Bohnam et al., i.e., Harder/Faster/Longer = Better. Thankfully, maturity wormed its way in (as it does), and I eventually grew to love this solo. Dr. Bill’s comments and any potential shortcomings aside, there is unmistakable genius bubbling up from that 22-year-old lad, God bless ‘im.

Brilliant piece of music :)

Mmhhh parece montado. Si no lo es, imagínense comprar algo poseído. Luego no te puedes mudar, no te reembolsan tu dinero y vivir aguantando esas manifestaciones, es una pesadilla

❤

I grew up in the 70s and then as now, felt this music and these musicians were never going to be matched in the style they play. Man, what aa group of great players, no weak links in this band. I would have loved to see an isolated drum camera on Bill, you can hear some great drumming going on, and seeing him along with hearing him would have been ideal. Even though this is young Bruford, Bill should be very proud of this band, its music, and his drumming in the band.

Absolutely agree with Bill when he said he likes to hear mistakes in music, it shows risks are being run. We tried to get that through to the drummer in our fusion band at the time, who was a great drummer, but like to play 'safe', and that kept him from achieving his potential.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I started to listen King Crimson when I was 14-15 years old, when the blue, red and yellow albums were launched and since then never stopped. Thank you for your music, Mr. Bruford!

Since Yessongs was released with recordings of a few songs with Bill's playing on them -- there must be more! Hey, Atlantic Records! How cool would a Bill Bruford-only version of Yessongs be? Ok, ok, include Alan on a couple of songs if you hafta....

Bill Bruford you are my idol and inspiration on the drums

Frippin’ marvellous

Космос! Нет слов...

😲😳🤯🖤💙🪇

Just recieved the Bill Bruford box "Make a song and dance", realize I´ve become a 60 year drummer and by that have had enough time to develop my own musical language. But still I realize that Bill Bruford's extraordinary creative ability is present in much of what I do (and what I try to achieve, both as a drummer, bass & guitarplayer, singer and songwriter), despite all the years of playing and all the influences that fill all kinds of music media today. Bill Bruford really is one of a kind! (Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to se Bill live, it would be a dream to get the opportunity to meet/see one of my biggest musical influenses in this lifetime)! Anyway, thank you Bill Bruford for all the music, innovation, ideas, things to work on and musical integrity! Greetings from Roger here from the Swedish West Coast! @BillBruford

I don’t get how anybody could listen to this and say to themselves “this isn’t good”

awesome. I actually enjoy his subtle contributions to the song 'Lift Me Up' from the Union tour. a song he had nothing to do with.

I've watched this same bit of video on the King Crimson channel so many times I have lost count. I love Bill's percussion, and I love how they take it up a notch when Adrian joins Bill. It seems to have taken a long time for this music to gain the volume of appreciation it deserves. Friends used to give me a hard time being a huge KC fan in the early days, but I understand that the Beat tour sold out very quickly, and they are doing a lot of gigs.

AMAZING ditty! Took my dad to see these guys in '83. l said ''DAD! we have to go see my favourite drummer!'' Still is my favourite.

Great Scott I was at this venue. I'm at Max Roach Tony Williams I've met this is a great show thank you from Great Scott

never gets old

Great.

The most unusual aspect of this band is the amount of experimental music they acheived and yet could easily do genuine single quality songs Three of a perfect pair for instance. Possibly one of the greatest KC songs of all time.

Steve Howe practically invented the prog rock guitar approach. He and Robert Fripp. And when you watch this, you see clearly why he's considered a great irrespective of genre. He can play anything...he's got so much history of music in his kit bag.

Yessong my favourite album. I just prefer good live albums for some reasons. ❤❤❤

Pure gold ❤️😍❤️😍❤️

❤❤❤Fan since I was 12 years old! Seen only once in 2002 at the Brighton Dome, super fantastic. ❤❤❤

Adrian is crazy

It would make perfect sense. If they can stand Each other. Remember you live and work together for 19 hrs a day. I say I would love to see it.

Snare? off the chart. I don’t know.

There are unique musicians. Bruford is unrepeatable.

I've always LOVED this solo!! My favorite part of Yessongs!! Thanks Bill!!!!!!!

Love his referencing the song structure in his solo. Very musical. Outstanding musician. 🎵🥁🎶

Your evaluation is, as usual, accurate, self-deprecating, and reflective. This is in keeping with the established English tradition of not patting oneself on one's back. What you missed, however, was that this solo was amazingly precocious for a 22 year-old. When I first heard it, I was a 15-year old drummer, and it sailed right over my head. "What the hell is he trying to do here?" I asked. "Where are the bombastics? The double bass patterns? The amazingly fast singles?" Little did I know that this solo was an inventive piece of rebellion in a world of musical overkill. It was a flash of brilliance wrapped in brevity. There are elements here of the solo you were doing in 1971; you imported the best bits, trimmed the fat, and went many places in a little over 2 minutes. You showed us glimpses of jazz and rock phrasing, and then took us out at the end like a cannon. Well-done.

Millons of Americans aren't impressed by Accomplishments, it's reality TV tonight 😢

The best of all times, master Bruford.

Now THERE'S a band who PRACTICED! OUTSTANDING!🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶

Or: 🎵 Neil, A-a-alex, Geddy - Canuck rockers... [Just kidding. 😁]

I'd rather watch the live version with the less perfect audio. The lineup, the tunes - possibly my top fusion band in history. Each musician is a gem.

Please make a good sounding version of the opening drum solo on BRUFORD AND THE BEAT (1982). It's always been my favorite drum solo by anyone! 😎🧐🥳💖❤🧡❤💛🧡💚💛💙💚💜💙🤎💜🤎💙💜💙💛💚🧡💛❤💓
