My thoughts/head-space:

I LOVE THIS SONG!!! This solo section allows me to be extremely dynamic in my approach. I love the harmonic colours and weaving horn and guitar lines as well. I was inspired to present a tom “melody” that complimented the horn line without breaking the flow of notes being played on the ride and snare, and as the solo went on, I started to incorporate the snare and ride in my overall phrasing. One of my favourite things to do in this solo section is to build intensity towards a chord or musical moment, and then disappear in a wash of cymbals.

I’m always inspired by the original drum performance on Flood by my big bro Robert “Sput” Searight. Check out the full album here store.snarkypuppy.com/collections/music/products/t…

  • Being able to perform with Michael's face in your field of vision is an achievement in and of itself.
  • One of the most beautiful drums solo i ever heard in my life. You talked about musicality ? Waow thank you sir ! :)
  • Michael's face says it all - mesmerized !!!!
  • I love how he builds it all up and then ‘washes away’ using the cymbals, then builds up again. Not sure how to describe it :)
  • Larnell you are seriously one of the most Complete drummers i have ever had the privilege of meeting. You have left a lasting impression on me. Each person has their own voice behind the kit, however you represent the standard of the total package. The last thing i will say is that you are not only exemplify excellence on the kit, but you are an awesome human being. Always willing to share and impart knowledge. Thank you for sharing your gift bro.
  • Beauty. Perfection. If you achieve Astral projection, play this song. Just fly. Fly away with this song.

  • Amazing solo, with so many different nuances, colors... I also love the solo -- well, not only the solo, but the whole playing -- in the Dunlop Sessions video. That's awesome
