wow this couldnt have resonated more, I think I had an early print of the 3 volume patterns bookset, as am digging into the first viewing on the interview, but the odd groupings - so much to learn so little time , thanks for getting to this series Mr Vinnie , and for this interview, those books had hand written typsetting from what I recall, probably since the odd grouping phrases would cross the beat or bar...this system battled for practice session time with another system that got me hooked the gary chester new breed ostinatos 1 and 2 ps ex pete magadini student here...Vinnie thanks for giving lots of musical examples to look up much appreciated

Zeitgeist indeed! As throughout all history artistic expression reflects the state of humanity and it's safe to say that the current one is a low historic point. Social media is the main culprit in my opinion, they've elevated the dumb and neutered all that's meaningful.

Btw, I agree with you, Rode mics rock!

Thanks Vinnie, you nailed it man 👍 play your music wich is your true purpose (in depth) from the heart

Maybe you could show some of your cool shit like when you do that triplet 16th note thing over that double kick shuffle. It’s like a triplet 16th over the shuffle beat took me quite a while to get good on that. I think you should show us some of that stuff I’ll bet you get a bunch of hits.

Thank you! Your show is amazing!

Musos do active listening, while Joe Q generally does passive listening. (The listening you do when you're not really listening). Musos delight in hearing more and more on subsequent listens, Joe Q is unlikely to listen twice. Write your music to please yourself. Nobody else is listening.

Love the content, Vinny, But still , would love to see you rip it up once in a while, (Ye ole drummer) i’m not telling you how to run your channel dude but when I watch guns, I like to see him shoot when I watch my favorite drummer I want to see him fill in the blank Check out this guitar players channel Justin Ostrander I’m a freaking drummer and I love his channel. He makes me think more like a musician I don’t need to see the flash and all the bullshit. We’ve all seen that but in conjunction with your excellent narrative still love to see a place something

Greatful for your candid missives. As a drummer I have emence respect. As a young man recording at Ocean Way I met you briefly in the parkinglot at SIR back in '87. You had be rehearsing with Joni? You were very kind and helped me load my stuff into the rental car. Proud of all you have accomplished and share your sentiments about the current state of the industry, or what is left of it. Shine dude...you are still one of the greatest of all time. No-one can take that away from you.

Spot on - thanks :D I was a child in the 1960s, a teenager in the 1970s - and I wouldn't trade with the youth of today. The musical variety that was all the way back to jazz's infancy and up through the 30s, 40s, 50s, and on to the decades when I was a child - is not found in the mainstream today. To hear Bill Evans today, you have to search for special channels, and I think it should be a human right to be presented with such sublime music. Listeners must be educated, but also be open themselves - and a colossal music universe can open up. But nowadays it happens all too rarely.

The formula is based on nursery rhymes. It’s all nursery rhymes always has been always will be. But seriously, isn’t it just a good hook I think they fucked it all away when they quit on the blues. I don’t know it’s my guess. and then… the shit show of music they have out there now may self correct with the advent of interfaces and everybody being a producer on their own maybe the hook and the nursery rhyme will come back. I hope so.! i’ll be sure to check out those mics. I’m just building my studio still working on it. Need some good overheads You’re well spoken, Vinny. Hope this damn channel takes off !

"Let me happen" ... says it all...both life wise and drum wise

I have all 4 of Gary's books, but they're overwhelming. It's too much material. I would need to study with him to get anything out of them.

Not a drummer but I love your stories & analogies & tips in your videos, it applies to all musicians for sure, great stuff!

Funny and very interesting..Why are by jazz swing (studio) recordings normally no click track used as by almost other music styles is.?..🤔 maybe because other way of feeling TIME..😂

People in Cuba and for the most part the latin areas of the Caribbean not only won't clap in 1 and 3 but will actually do the clave as naturally as any old cat taps in 2 and 4.

To make metronome practice more challenging (and fun), first create a sequence with quantized quarter note cowbell. Now silence every 4th bar, or silence bars 3 and 4 in your sequence. I called it the Holey Metronome. Free mp3s on my site if you're interested.

Thanks for your good relevant thoughts about time. Yesterday was, tomorrow never is - time is now :D

It's all about time... time after time. Terrifically timely is this sixteen minutes + of time.

Thanks for the deep dive! As I improve as a player, these groove and time subtleties become more and more apparent as I become immersed in the music I'm playing. However, I haven't really had the vocabulary to verbally explain these nuances to other musicians. I recently played a Music of New Orleans concert where all the rhythms were "in the crack" in terms of both tempos, feel and articulation. I heard the rhythmic "shadings", but it was a challenge for my bandmates. In the end, I had to just pull them into my groove and it ended up being well received by the audience.

Great! But 1&3 "Dreaded"!? Nice to keep them, but it does create dull stomping. Talk about it more if you bring it up again.Leading accurately to the 1, that is the key, yes? That's what good drummers and conductors really supply. Thinking ahead, music's great gift. Cold medicine made me speed the beat up. Great perspective, ideas and communication. Yay Vinnie! Keep on!

I actually lasted 18 minutes. As much as I love Bill Bruford and would love to have heard his views, Vinnie Colaiuta is the worst, most obtrusive ‘interviewer’ I’ve ever heard!

Gary's books on linear drumming and metric modulation really opened up my feel and soloistic creativity and phrasing. I have almost no interest in what I hear as linear shredding or gospel chops etc. After 30 sec. I'm out. It's just a bunch of noise with no proper context. Very little musical interesting happening.

What a great interview especially the 2nd half. It was like these two were sitting chatting out on the patio somewhere.

Lovely and inspiring. I've been fascinated by and have loved Chick's music for years, which I always felt was telling me things that I couldn't quite grasp. I thought it must be something incredibly deep and profound so I kept trying to analyze it more, which was great fun, but I still felt something was missing. Only recently I realized it was the taste of an ice cream cone on hot summer day after playing baseball in the street, the smell of play-doh, the paint-by-numbers landscape with the piebald horse that was finally finished. It was the sound of life, of the joy of being alive and finding others around you who felt the same, where you created your own world where the rules were your own, and others could be invited in, but only if they understood the secret, only if they could pass through that mirror to the other side like Alice in Wonderland. Some might not get it, they might see the pretty pictures and laugh and smile, but a few would throw down their heavy burdens and jump and splash in the puddles for a time.

I listen to Yes and King Crimson all the time 😎

What a great video! Thank you for sharing!

Hahahaaaaa. Absolutely amazing story about Chick and your experience with him. How can anyone carry so much music in their bones and still approach life with fun..... yes indeed he truly did. No one on the planet like him

I am very lucky to be in Japan where there are hundreds of tiny clubs where live groups still play. I play drums myself so I can join a jam session pretty much anytime I want. Such an amazing pair Vinnie and Bill. Wow. Thank you Vinnie for putting this on!

DEAD ON VINNIE..! And thank you Pete for jumping in and giving your testimony about this. It just continues to prove the lies that were given to us and that were forced on us.. I suffered the same consequences

I thought Vinnie's point of "wanting it" to a point of "not having a Plan B" is absolutely correct for achieving the highest levels in anything. Athletics, art, business, etc.

Love your solo cd(Stretch records) too Vinnie..and thank you for personal signed it at your drumclinic in Koblenz Germany..man it was so great joy for me too 🌞💪🎶✌️🙏☯️

Two very musically inspiring people (and hopefully)too next generation to.. thanks 👌✌️🙏☯️🎶

28:50 Freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, the prohibition of a standing army during peacetime and the illegality of unusual punishments were all adopted by the Founders from English Parliament's Declaration of Right, written in 1689.

Great stuff. Question: is Vinnie refering to the piece Ionization by Edgard Varese?

And the funky drummer was...

Thanks Vinnie! RIP Armando!

Vinnie, Thanks so much for these wonderful "words/feelings" about the late great Chick Corea!.......I have listened to Chicks music since a young teenager living in N.J....His music made "me" feel, some day "I WANT TO BE THAT GOOD!" .....Thank you so much Vinnie!!!!!...Sincerely, Todd Walker

Ancient wisdom

Vinnie, you once said that you stopped doing clinics bcz of the “ razzle/dazzle “ most people are expecting from you… ( displaying chops ) showmanship etc. If there is one drummer in the world that should be doing clinics more than anyone else, it should be you. With the resume you have covering almost any style of music, I guess thousands of drummers out there would be HUNGRY to see/hear you talking about your versatility and why you’re one of the most in demand sessionist ever. I hope my text would inspire you to share your knowledge on the instrument by doing clinics again.

🌞👌👌👍👍✌️☯️🙏..love this deep conversation..at the end it s all about being a unique human heart and soul and co creation (proces) and appreciate the beautiful 'Simple small' things in life and nature and shearing kindness and karma-dharma, thank you, Great teaching man!

Oh, wow... 😮

Love U Chick ! Thank you vinnie for all ❤

Amazing Experience and Love/Pasion for the Music ❤❤❤ Thanks Vinnie for Share 🥁🥁🎸🎹💪🏾🎶

Bach, Beethoven, Corea.

My first personality owned album was Jeff's Beckola album. I loved everything he ever did from the first time i heard the yardbirds .Your time with Jeff mr Vinnie may well be the greatest of all Jeff's bands. And thats a huge compliment considering all the great drummers he had over the years.

Sometimes you make my head hurt Vinny But I love it I work every day to reach a goal but the journey is so wonderful that The goal becomes less important once you reach it and you strive for another one and another one and another one brother you know it is the journey ! Always the journey. Thank you, Vinny reminding us what a great human and musician chick was!

Yesterday in the subway , I was listening to Chick's version of Wayne Shorter's Masqualero on his piano improvisations record on ECM label One of the most fabulous piece he ever recorded in my opinion So moving
