well can argue with you, we are all different and we all have different perspectives, I'll have to accept the opinion of others. In your case Gadd's feeling doesnt go with my taste as much as it does with yours . what matters the most is that you enjoy what you listen to, regardless of what others think.

I have to say that Gadd was by far the most musical drummer out of the three in this instance, in my opinion. Vinnie has great technique and Weckl has a very fluid style but Gadd has such a feel, every time! Yes perhaps his licks are overfamiliar by now, but they're incredibly original and have been imitated by everyone since.

Vinnie n Weckl are more skilled than Mr. Gadd (with respect). Yeah that cowbell was nice and all and the army solo but there's more to drumming that that and anyway he does that all the time. When he runs out of ideas, he just goes mozambique on the cowbell. It was all right until he overused paradiddles, cowbell n that lick he does all the time which sometimes sounds misplaced(not that it sounds out of time). Vinnie uses displacement, polyrhythms, borrowed time but they sound well placed

Gadd has some nice licks n very useful ones n he's good 'cause he does very well what a drummer is suppose to do; time keeping and accompaniment. He got fame with his latin grooves... here everybody went nuts when they heard the cowbell used with a good paradiddle, hehe. But for my taste, VInnie & Weckl r better, Vinnie in particular. & I also think that in technique VInnie>Weckl>Gadd. Gadd is all that but I dont like what goes through his mind when phrasing and combining good ideas any more

I used to like Gadd, I got bored of his way of playing and I got more interested in other drummers like Weckl and Colaiuta. Gadd is a very different drummer. his approach to the kit is like weird, not that I dont understand rhythm figures, Is just that I dont like... some of his phrases, how he places his ideas, some of his ideas are weird. But that makes his very unique and I cant deny he got something to offer to the world of percussion and he has a big name.

perhaps in this occasion Vinnie played to impress people and he also wanted to see how much his technique had improved... but he's so much more skilled, He was probably into technique and speed in those days (i mean around that week, not back in the decade). His drumming is not always like that, he even plays simple stuff with great taste. sometimes he overplays when they let him.
