    Yeah, but shame on the producers/camera people: if I didn't know better they were working hard to EXCLUDE Rocco from any of the footage!

    Yes I get it, Lenny Williams, Larry Braggs and the list goes on and let's not forget Rufas Miller, I agree we all have our favorites but one of the most underrated is Tom. I've seen all of them perform live with TOP since day one minus Rufas. Tom was one of the most entertaining but underrated.. I'll leave it at that...

    Unbelievable sound quality, thank you for sharing it! I thought it was starting off with a studio recording overlaid as an intro, but it's real. Wow. Does anyone know if Rocco ever requested to be left out of these kinds of videos? I've seen so little of him in so many pro-shot live vids of the band that it seems like more than chance. I love hearing him so well but would be nice if more editors included him in the visuals!

    I grew up on this version of TOP. Saw this version in Cincy Ohio at Bogarts music club. Blew my mind. The encore was a killer up tempo Soul Vacc, I could barely walk after that. Saw TOP a few weeks ago opening for Lettuce. Bold and dominating as ever.

    Sure, but I personally really dug what some of the other drummers brought to the table. The thing i always liked about Russ is that he was so super clean. Rock solid timing, fully capable of overplaying but never did. Like a Ferarri doing 70mph on a freeway, cruising along but if you need to do 120mph to blow the doors off of someone, it was right there on tap. I love Garibaldi to death and the classic lineup is totally untouchable, but Russ brings some things here that David just doesnt. There's a weight behind it, a luxury. It's nice to hear a different take on the original.
