Ian Paice - Deep Purple on Pearl Drums

I couldn't help but notice the Pearl Eliminator Redline (Lefty) Pedal, probably the best pedal ever made.

What pedal is on that kit?

I will Enjoy mine and (you) enjoy yours! Do not covet mine haha :p

🌊🌴He's the best 🌴🌊.

Sometimes one is lucky enough to “meet” their celebrity heroes or people that they look up to, but there is also the exception where you find out what an ass your favorite can be. One of the true legends of the kit is Ian Paice and it is such a joy to hear him talk drums , places he’s been, and his expertise like a real person. Very good show, my friend

Was a kid, heroes, Bonham, Paice, Baker and the rest. Wanted a the same as those fantastic drummers. Still got my Ludwigs 52 years on and I fxxxxxg love em. Super classics and a lm402

LAN. Thanks for sharing the pearl drum kit asome set. I like to see you on a Ludwig drum kit similar to the one in the 70’s . You rock.

What's the white square on the inside of ians beater head?

Fã demais desse super batera Ian Paice👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I've had four PEARL kits in my life - all the way from a cheap Maxwin in the early 80s; a fiberglass/maple hybrid; a custom maple monster and now a vintage Japanese birch DLX. I'm not going to say that PEARL are the best drums in the World, just that they are my favourite drums in the World. P.S. I have been using PAISTE cymbals for all that time too!
PEARL & PAISTE - a match made in Heaven!!!

It's ridiculous that so many people hate on Pearl, yet when you question their reasoning you find that the extent of their experience with Pearl drums is somewhere along the lines of "I saw an Export kit once and I didn't like it, so Pearl sucks!" Such narrow minded ignorance...

Beautiful drums Mr. Paice!!! I enjoyed the video!

The hoops on the snare a drilled? for what?

Ian Paice sounds 1000 times better when he plays Ludwig Drum. Now he plays some soullless japanese yogurt cups.
What a pitty!!

Ian played on Ludwig drums in the early days, and there is a better sound on them, Pearl is "middle of the 1980" Everything should sound like funk then, even rockgroups.

If I saw correctly, he uses coated Ambassadors on top and clear Ambassadors at the bottom.

A beautiful talented and humble man, the heartbeat of Deep Purple.

Grew up on this guy , big part of my life. Thank you!

Yes!!! History DP!!! Ian Paice and his Famous kit Pearl + Randy May system!!! Mic.Ian play Forever U History Rock !!!

May miking drum mics internally.

No nonsense talk through with the emphasis on facts. However many historic kits he has sat behind, the one built to his specification and satisfaction is why he’s playing Pearl today. Quite a few nostalgic comments below which harken back to his previous set-ups; he’s obviously a man who innovates and applies his considerable experience to both what and how he plays.

🙏🏼master!

cool

God God God Drummer !

oh I love that kit, that snare looks brutal ! Ian's one of the very best, ferocious speed around the kit...

No Tom mount ISO System - OLD SKOOL!

Every drum maker thinks they have the best drums.... and every player who has their favorite kit thinks it's the best.... It's the classic Fender/Gibson/Ibanez.......argument the guitar guys have. Pearl makes very good drums. Other guys make very good drums too. Find what you like and roll with it.

you rock Ian. PBM/300

NOTHING tops his ludwig "made in japan" drums

What is the difference between red line eliminator and normal (black) eliminator?
