Speaker 2 (01:12):
Answer the question why do players get vilified but owners don't?
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Is that fair? I don't care. We're live everywhere. I
mean our owners get vilified. I mean Joe McDonald used
to say that Georgia Frontieri killed the owner of the
Rams with like a stick with the back end of
the sea in the pool that's right, she jammed. Everybody
knew Carol Carols.

I mean, that's a villified if I would have the
charge a guy with murder on AM radio. I mean,
the gal excuse me.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Feels as though, feels as though the owners in Dallas
are are wearing it for trading twenty five year old
Luka Doncic for Anthony Davis. But what the hell do

Speaker 1 (02:03):
The XFL called me, Matt. I had a job lined
up with Fox Sports West to two hundred bucks a pop.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
The AAF called me, I had a job lined up
and had to pick up my own expenses. Those expenses
were never reimbursed and I was never paid. However, I
did get a skating call from Charlie Eversaw once because
I was talking too much when Johnny Manziel was on
the field. Forgot about that until just now. As a
matter of.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Fact, well, at least he paid you for your efforts.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
He did not, nor did he reimburse my expenses. If
I ever see him, I will not be nice because
I don't know what he looks like.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You can singing the song the song don't let Me

So this one jumped out of me. P grey whales
and where you're whaling show of record.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
There's not even a not even a question.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Grey whales mate in threes. The non dominant male acts
as a brace to hold the female in place so
she doesn't float away when the dominant male is wearing
her out.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Talk about a wingman, right, I mean, wow, you know
it sounds a little uncomfortable. Man, it sounds like something
you know that you could be charged for. I would
say so jesless these, But then again, you know, the
grey whales got to continue otherwise, you know, if you
don't hold that lady in place, we're not gonna have
more grey whale. Yeah, you see the star Trek, Come on,
save the whales. Oh that was my favorite one too, sadly, Matt,
(04:26):
every movie I walked out of between the age of
nine and fifteen, I said, that's the greatest movie. Right,
it's not for quickets, some tms quickets. I'll make it quick, y'all.
Oh yeah, big trade in the NBA that happened in
(04:48):
the last hour. Jimmy Butler got his way. The Heat
are finalizing a deal to send Jimmy Butler to the
Warriors for Andrew Wiggins, former Laker Dennis Shrewder, Kyle Anderson,
big headed bruin, and a projected first round pick Shams.
The sharoon balloon broke it, and that is happening. So
(05:10):
when the Lakers take on the Warriors, they will be
in transition as they are as well. Another big train
going down. Well, the Lakers have won three straight and
nobody cares because Luca Dante is gonna be a Laker. Yeah,
(05:31):
almost almost everybody likes it. The Lakers have won eight
in their last ten. They had the five seed in
the West two games back, a wall of Houston and
the three seed. They host Golden State tomorrow night at
the Crypt. And the Clippers really took a crap last night,
Yes they did.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I heard Adam a Adam Oslin fully functional employee Adam
earlier on the show before us, and he came armed
with statistical measures and said Clippers are thirty eight and
(06:11):
ten in their last forty eight against the Lakers, and
in the Intuit Dome that atmosphere to play their worst
game of the year and the Lakers to play their
best was a real letdown.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You shoot seventy five percent in the first corner or whatever,
You're probably not not gonna lose that game. At a
certain point, the wall had no chance at all, No,
except that Bronnie missed those two free throws. So people
got Chick fil a.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
That's right, yeah, Bronnie, not me a sandwich. They will
host the Pacers tomorrow night at the Intuit Dome seven
thirty pm. Tip, you'll hear it right here on AM
five seventy. That means it's a three to six thirty
show for us.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
You know I mentioned earlier, Matt. It really weird.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You know.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I went on with Jonas and Brady and LeVar this
morning and they're out in New Orleans, and we did
not say Eagles, Chiefs or super Bowl. Once. Maybe we
said the word super Bowl, but we didn't. You know, crazy,
And I bet you Goodell is passed, but Chiefs Eagles
still happening. He oh gee, we got the game, Yes,
(07:20):
go Berts, we got the game for you here three
thirty kickoff. But how about the NFL loosening up some
of the restrictions for Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yes, he is on the pall for the Super Bowl,
and he has not been able because he's a minority
owner with the Raiders. To attend team practices, white to
go to production meetings with the coaches or the players
the teams that he is broadcast in. The NFL is
allowing him to do it this week. When it comes
to production meetings for the Chiefs and the Eagles players
(07:50):
and coaches, he is still restricted from watching practices, restriction
or being at the team's facilities.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
So no excuses. I called Pete Carroll and I told
you wouldn't believe what the Chiefs were doing the day
before the game. They were only in jerseys and shorts
and they walked through their plates. Oh that's good, intel man.
They called it something crazy. They called it a walk through.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
That good stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Yeah man, all right, yeah, give it to Brennan. Let
them know what and what are they testing here, Matt.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Well, they are testing the Super Bowl as the state
of the art technology moving forward. That's going to help
with ball location and placement. The NFL is not officially
using it. Thought they couldn't do it because the ball
was oval, That's what they said. And that was a
hot load of crap. What they are testing it behind
the scenes. New Orleans super telling me.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
We can catch a rocket in the sky with two
mechanical arms. But we can't put a chip in an
oval ball.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah, it turns out there's a fourteen camera system that
monitors more than two dozen skeletal points on a player's body.
That system, along with chips in the football and eighteen
other specific cameras strategically placed around the stadium, can all
be combined. That put together, it can uterized model that
will potentially track where the ball is when a player
(09:04):
is down, if someone is able to gain the line
for a first down, or if they have scored the
computer and the eye in the sky. The fourteen camera
and then eighteen camera system will know no word on
it or when it would be used in games moving forward.
But seems like tennis and soccer seem to have that's
(09:25):
a round ball, Yeah, figured out.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Gosh, I can't belong with you. A long time ago,
I told you those are round balls, so mine. No,
they're not matt not perfectly. No, they're not nobody's balls.
Nobody's balls are perfectly rounded. And you can't round out
your balls with your hand, you'd be in terrible pain.
Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh was on AMPI seventy earlier this morning,
(09:48):
not with US, but with Dan Patrick. He was asked
about Big Carol taking up maybe I'll get to interview
him again at the at the golf tournament.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
He was asked about Big Carol over the Raiders and
his relationship with what's your DP.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Caut The respect that I have respect for him, you know,
I mean, uh, you know, the competitor that he is,
that the teams that you know that uh, you know
he produces and yeah, we just we just talked the
other day on uh on Sunday as a matter of fact,
and there's a you know, I'd like to feel like
he's you know, he he uh he's got the you know,
(10:25):
same kind of you know, uh, you know, competitive respect.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Okay, Yeah, I do, man, That's why we're talking on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Man.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, come on, Jim, come on, get it paid good man.
Australian News Croy. They're gonna go to Melbourne, Nelvin. Is
that how they say saying Melbourne, Australia in twenty twenty
six is where they're going to play. And uh, David
Masse won't be there to be kicked out of a
bar for being too dark. That happened. It's a multi
(10:55):
I might here yes, he's a little dog.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
You are of a darker shoe than me.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Now get at what you look like an aboriginate get
out are it's not funny. The the Rams will be
the home team playing the game in Australia. That was announced.
Speculation is the Chargers will be paying playing in Brazil.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Remember how we let you guys move to La Guess what,
get your rest to Australia. We're going to Brazil, matt Is,
that's the word. It's not official yet, but it's suspected
that that will be announced. I'll give you an extra kidney,
mad if they take yours. The NFL play just gets
straight and murdered. Well, that would be unfortunately. I mean,
we're gonna have to hire locked down there. The NFL
(11:43):
Players Association executive director Lloyd Howell Junior Lloyd says that
you can't triple stamp and double stamp Lloyd Lloyd. They
have no desire to play the eighteenth regular season game.
He's not sure where Goodell's safety data favoring making this
eason longer came from. Of course, what they're going to
do is negotiate.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
You know, we'll pay one hundred and fifty percent of
your game check for the eighteenth Okay, all.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Right, we're god, We're good. I'll go out there and
get my head knocked in. It's what I do. Anyway,
you got one hundred fifty percent. No brainer. It seems
like I'm a start of a negotiation.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Yes, how Lloyd Christmas said, quote when you talked about
eighteen games, what does the international composition look like? And
where there's evidence that they would like to go as
far away as Australia. We just mentioned that the Middle
East can see that they've got a lot of money
over there India, a lot of people there, saw a
lot of jerseys to those folks, you name it. They
truly want to look at the international part of the game.
(12:39):
So how does that fit into eighteen games? Well, Lloyd,
one of them would be international. For every single team,
you'd be playing eighteen or sixteen international games. That's how
it would work.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Well. Lloyd also said, why are you going to the
airport flying somewhere? Pictures and catchers report to care back
ranch in five days? Who's back? Camel butt back? So
soon alady, you go win the World Series and then
going to Tokyo. First full team workout is February fifteenth.
(13:10):
The first Dodger Spring training game is right here on
AM five seventy. On February twenty, Sweet and Eric Day Junior,
a delightful young man, joined us in the last hour
UCLA on a roll and they host Penn State on
Saturday at Polly and you heard him say, Pack Polly
presented by Westcom tip off at one and it's on
(13:30):
the blowtorch AM five to seventy. Even though Tim Kates
lit up the Patriot like the star spangled banner last night, unbelievable,
it really was. What a win. We'll be back with
the great James Worthy his reaction to the Luka Doncicz trade.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Next Petro sand Money going till seven pm time for
James Worthy. It is where we raise our families, earn
a living, and enjoy life. But when disaster strikes, it
takes all of us to come together to rebuild, to
make it home again. Your southern California four Dealers are
(14:08):
helping first responders with donations and support to the LA
Fire Department and California Community Wildfire Recovery, as well as
Feeding America and the American Red Cross. If your vehicle
was damaged by the recent La Area fires. Your Southern
California four dealers are offering you employee pricing plus no
payments for one hundred and twenty days. Because this is
our home too. It takes all of us to turn
(14:29):
heartache into hope, rebuild and make it home again. La strong,
built Ford proud.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Speaking of strength, what about our hero James Worthy? One
of the greatest basketball players of all time? And we
get to talk to him once a week, can you
believe it? And as Jersey hangs at the Crypto, you
see him on Spectrum Sports at LA. He's an Emmy winner,
jazz aficionado, a cigar smoker, in moderation, and a hero
(14:57):
to the city of Los Angeles. And he's been through
a lot of these Shaq and Kobe and Palgasol And
here comes Luka Doncicic to be the next big Laker star.
James Worthy joins us on the Petro some Money show.
What's cracking? James? How are you?
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Man?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Just and join the rain a little bit. I'm kind
of digging the rain a little bit, uh, interfering, interfering
with the golf. But that's okay, Uh. And man, I'm
telling you, I'm just trying to come down from the
super high that everyone has been going through the last
(15:36):
couple of days with the arrival of Luka Doncia. I mean,
right when I thought the Lakers were about to get
to a place where I was really happy, you know,
five and one on the road trip, getting a couple
of dogs what I call like dogs in here with
(15:57):
Finny Smith and you know, Vanderbilt coming back, and one
of my favorite players was starting to be Max Christie.
So I was we you know, there's no there's no
predicting that we can win, but we can compete ten
games over five hundred. I'm tripping, man. I'm like they
(16:18):
and Breddick is doing a good job. And then I'm
driving home out to work the other day and Dieter
calls me and says and says, I'm on the I'm
on the four five man, And he says he just
d Ad and Max Christy look, and I'm like, dude,
where are you at? You are you at the bar?
I mean, you know it's not even April. It's not April.
(16:42):
So guys, I'm telling you uh to be able to
get a twenty five year old phenon arguably top three
players in the league is Uh, it's a game changer.
And it's just unbelievable that any franchise would give up
a player at that age. And I mean, let me
(17:05):
also say, I love a D and I love Max
and I you know, I thanked him for everything, and
if we still had him, it'd be great. But to
get twenty five year old and and you know, I
think I think a D is six years older than
he is. Uh, I'll tell you this is a it's
(17:26):
a brain twister, and it is an amazing trade for
the future of the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Everybody hears it, James, but as somebody that knows it,
like share with people because I think that maybe the
folks that they should know how good Luca is. I mean,
he was just in the NBA Finals and if you
watch that Western Conference final, it was incredible what he
did out there. But why is he some people think
he's the best player in the league. Like, what is
it that he does that Laker fans are now going
(17:54):
to be treated to game in and game out.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Well, he's at Los Angeles and without doing it on purpose.
I'm not saying he's doing it on purpose. He's a
freaking entertainer. Man he entertains while he has watched Lebron
ever since he was five years old. Okay, they play
(18:20):
a little bit of light, but I think Luca is
a little better with the ball in his hands. He
can't be sped up. I've never seen him go past
second gear, and he gets things done like I've never
seen since Magic Johnson. He makes other people better. He
can pass, and he can score, he can rebound. You know,
(18:45):
he's a Magic Johnson on steroids. Man is what he is.
And he can shoot the three. And he's twenty five.
And Jerry West and Bill Charmon and some of the
experts of the game say, you really don't peink in
the you know, until you get like thirty. It's kind
(19:05):
of like where Ad is right now. He's like finally
after all the great talent and All Star and all that,
and he's just getting to the point where he gets it,
playing seventy six games last year and dominating this year
like he was and is. But then Luca is twenty
five and he's doing this now. So in three more years,
(19:25):
when the discipline comes, if that's what he needs to do,
so he needs to work out with Lebron. He gets
a little smarter, and it's only gonna get better and
more dominant, you know, kind of like a little bit
like Lebron career has gone. I mean, he's old, he
gets he's he's not even pink yet.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Last one for me, James, and I hope this comes
out right. I hope it does, because you know, Luca's
taking some incoming. They're talking about the way his body looks,
the weight, they're talking about the way he plays defense.
How good of a defender was Magic when he had
Kareem and Michael Cooper out there and you out there
like it feels like you can surround a guy that's
(20:09):
that talented with other defenders and you don't have to
worry about it that much.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
We never allowed Magic Johnson to guard John Stockton or
Isaiah Thomas or Jason Kidd or anybody like that, because
we needed him in the fourth quarter. We need him
to push the ball and help us win. So you know,
we put Byron on the point guard. I would I
(20:35):
would play Crid Jecksher, I would play Joe Dumars. I
had the size and equipments to do that. So absolutely
they'll find a way because you don't want Luca running
off picks and having to you know, guard people on
the perimeer. You know, I mean actually that special of
a player. You know, Larry Bird never really had to
(20:55):
guard me or anybody. You know. They know how to
not necessar necessarily high players, they know how to preserve them.
So yeah, I mean and as far as you know, look,
I remember being twenty five and you know I was
knocking down a six pack a week, you know what
I mean? If you know, you get over some things
(21:17):
as a young man, you know, Jerry West says, you
know you you you know, you really don't start peeking
like I said to you, like in your twenty nine
to thirty. So he'll get with Lebron, he's went one
of the most disciplined guys in the world and he's
been watching them ever since he's five years old. So
I'm sure that the knock that Dallas has given him
(21:43):
and the money that he's you know, going to miss
out on. But the Max, now, I don't know what
he wanted to do, but there was a little over
one hundred and five hundred ten million dollars sitting on
the super Max contractor he's not gonna get now, So
who if there's any incentive on being MVP of the
(22:04):
league and winning some championships because you know the Lakers are,
They're going to try to surround them with what they
need to do that.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Well, a one hundred million dollars sure buy a lot
of six packs. The Great James Worthy absolutely precious for
us to have the commentary from the Great James Worthy.
I tweeted a picture last night to promote the show
because it was Lakers Clippers A picture are Worthy in
the sports arena. Why did they have you guys in
those two tone unis, James? Why was the jersey different
(22:36):
from the shorts?
Speaker 3 (22:37):
Well, because we only had one away uniform and we
only had one home uniform, so we flew commercial, so
there was no leaving the arena right after the game.
So the home team was responsible for washing our uniforms
right after the game, giving them back to us that
(22:59):
next morning before we left, and we'd have them for
the next There was no multiple uniforms. You never you
never saw anybody taking their jersey off and throwing it
to a fan back then. So imagine, you know, you
got some little seventeen year old kid who's the ball boy,
and you know he he wants to go home, but
(23:20):
he's got to watch these uniforms. And man, he throws
them all in there, and he just throws tide in there,
and he puts four rocks and he just doesn't know
what he's doing. And so our jerseys would fade be
like lavender, and our bottoms would be like dark purple.
And that's how we roll it, man, so good. You
(23:43):
know what else? You know what else? It would be
itchy too, because sometimes they would use too much detergent.
And yeah, I'm going to write a book. Man, these
guys don't even know what it's like. Uh, you know
the way we had to roll.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
But dogs, beer, andy detergent. There you go, the Eastern Airlines. Yeah,
the great James Worthy. There's nobody better. Thank you, James.
PSA TWA you want to go, let's go, Let's go
the Great James Worthy. Great stuff.
Speaker 2 (24:15):

Back everybody, and good night. Thank you for listening. The
Pettersen Money Show mercifully coming to an end.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
If you have missed anything, any of the brilliant conversation
Matt and I have had, which is mostly just uncomfortable
back and forth about Lebron and the Lakers and Luka Doncic,
so much so that we find ourselves into veins of
conversation that are uncomfortable and almost unintelligible to the listener
(25:30):
because I'm so angry about the trade, disgusted.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I can't believe they would fall for something so stupid.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
And I'm sorry it's been an uncomfortable show in that way.
Beating out peg Ant Whistle.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Just keep it moving.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Fred peg Ent Whistle, if you remember, was the actress
that jumped off the Hollywood Sign.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yes, they have a celebrated here in the last year.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yeah, they have a seance for So moving on, Matt,
I thought you might recognize this guy's name because of
your Chicago roots. Okay. L. Moody one hundred and eighty
eight years old today from Massachusetts, son of a farmer,
raised in the Unitarian Church, moved to Boston and became
(26:14):
an Evangelical Christian. Now, usually you don't like these guys, Matt. No,
and certainly this guy comes from the I mean, I
guess he would be a precursor to many of the
evangelicals of today. But I read his old bio here
and looked up a bunch of stuff, and I can't
find anything that you'd really despise about this guy. He
(26:36):
dedicated his life to the church. Didn't want to fight
in the Civil War because he was like a Quaker,
he said, in that way, couldn't go fighting dudes. But
through the YMCA, he visited troops at nine battlefronts, including
Shiloh Stones River. He started a Sunday school in eighteen
fifty eight that became so popular that A Lincoln visited
(27:01):
it and did a reading there when he was newly elected.
The Illinois Street Church was his big church. He met
a famous singer named Ira Sanki, a gospel singer, and
that guy kind of rolled with him. But the fire,
I don't know if you've heard about this. There was
a big fire in Chicago. How big you know, I
(27:23):
would say, Matt, it was, you know, I mean, they
didn't have the scoopers in Canada, No, and they could
have just scooped right in Lake Michigan. And you know,
you know what I'm.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Saying, stupid cow with her stupid kick.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
The fire in Chicago blew him out. They blew us out.
His house, his church, the houses of his entire congregation,
everything was gone. So he ended up going to Northfield, Massachusetts,
and founded the boys and a girls' school, two different ones,
which are now merged as Northfield Mount Herman Home of
(27:59):
the Hoggers. Uh do they have famous alums Matt the Hoggers?
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Well, all the hogs on the Washington Redskins front line there.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
I don't. I don't know if Joe Gibbs his Hogs
were alums. But Betty Davis was, Oh that's a big deal. Now, Uma, Thurman.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
You know what they say about Betty Davis. They got
Betty Davis ears.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
All the dudes think she's a guy. He's got Betty Davis. Ah.
He published literary works through the Moody Bible Institute.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
See that's what I was gonna say. So that's the
Big Bible Chicago, in Chicago at the church.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Yeah, Ry toured the country and the British isles with
Ira Sankey, drawing large crowds. How many people you ask,
twelve to twenty thousand, even better than the Lakers Clippers
last night. He built centers and raised money and see
him for good causes. And a weird thing happened, Like
(29:00):
Morrissey in Mexico, he became a hero in Sweden, though
he never went to Sweden and could not speak their language.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
That's weird.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
The country caught what it was called Moody fever, speak
of our language. He just smiled and gave me a
Benga mite son with it. Preached his last sermon in
eighteen ninety nine in Kansas City. Died a month later.
After death, the Chicago Avenue Church was renamed the Moody
Church in Lincoln Park, that big beautiful building, and the
(29:30):
Moody Bible Institute as well. He got a World War
two ship named after him. Also named after him, Dwight Eisenhower.
Dwight Moody, You're a live guy.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
As your rhythm section show of record, not even clothe
your percussionist show of record, and as your drummers need
to get more damn respect show of records, this guy's
still alive. This guy is still alive. This was an
easy one. Happy sixty ninth to Vincent Peter Colaiuta, Lahuda,
(30:04):
who is he well? Here is a YouTube video from
drummer Stephen Taylor titled why Vinnie Colaiuta drum so hard?
And trying to a drum like Vinnie Colaiuta is so hard.
Speaker 6 (30:15):
You'll quickly realize that this man has virtually no limit
to the power and speed at his command. Even though
Vinni doesn't use this power and speed on every gig,
he has certainly made a name for himself that he's
the player you can throw literally anything at and he'll
play it, which is a huge reason why he's played
with some of the most musically demanding and diverse artists
out there. Vinnie is a timing wizard. Sure he's got power,
(30:37):
sure he's got speed, but he's also mastered just about
everything under the heading of timing that's out there.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
So that is Stephen Taylor. Half a million followers on
his YouTube page and that one had one hundred and
fifty thousand views. He started pounding the skins when he
was just seven. They had banned at his public school.
Teacher gave him a textbook that taught him the basics
of drumming, but it was Buddy Rich. He would listen,
he'd try to mimic what everybody was doing. Not easy.
And then he found Tony Williams. He said that was
(31:05):
the one Williams with Miles for a bit there before
starting the Tony Williams Lifeline, and Vinnie said, those records
and that sound changed his life. It is all he
wanted to do. From that moment on. He got into
the Berkeley College of Music. Jazz fusion is just starting
to take off, so he's playing around town. He goes
on tour with Al Cooper and while in California, was
(31:27):
asked to play on an album as a studio musician
from someone that was in the crowd so floored by
his performance. So at the end of the tour they
get back to Boston, he packs his apartment and immediately
takes a bus to Los Angeles. He gets an audition
to play with Zappa, and everyone knows you play with Zappa,
Chances are you are the best or close to the
(31:47):
best player of your instrument out there. Incredibly technical, crazy
time signatures that don't make any sense, cannot be one
one hundredth of a second off if you're gonna make
it with him any dad. He won the audition this
Joe's garage, keep it greasy. Probably can't hear it with
me talking, but it is truly some of the craziest
(32:08):
drums you've ever heard recorded.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Fat ass, crazy man.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
He's on eighteen zapp albums, many of them released posthumously
after Frank passed away. Snatched him up immediately Who Sting?
Of course Sting solo You need that Stuke Copeland sound
and Vinnie was the first call. He did five albums
with Sting again, crazy time signatures. Who else has he
played with and on their studio releases? Just think of
the most technical musicians out there. Steely Dan, Joe Satriani,
(32:34):
Herbie Hancock, Toto, Jeff Beck, Megadeth, Steve Vie to name
a few. He was Chick Corea's drummer and then his
hero Buddy Rich. When he got on in age but
was still out there, he asked Vinnie to join his
Buddy Rich Big band in the eighties. Released his first
solo record in ninety four. He's done three total and
still picks up the phone when people need something that
(32:56):
nobody else can play. Two nominations, one Grammy, but whatever
with that. He is a drummer's drummer. He's been Modern
Drummers Drummer of the Year ten times and was inducted
into the Classic Drummer Hall of Fame in twenty fourteen.
Turn that up again for me, case get a little more,
keep it greasy break, Howie, Greasy reason, Classic Drummer Hall
(33:30):
of Fame. As I said in twenty fourteen, Happy sixty nine,
Well no too, Vinnie Cola ayuda.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
