Vinny-—that’s the guy. Look, I don’t LIKE that type of drumming, hated Keith Moon and the guy with Rush-—but Calaiuta is just astounding. And Tal Wilkenfeld is the person who keeps the whole group together. Jazz is odd like that in that unlike most rock, where the DRUMMER keeps the band together, in Jazz one of the other players does, often the bassist (i.e., see the old Dave Brubeck Quartet.)
