Yes, there is a detailed explanation on this video. ruclips.net/video/DUdlM98RMZE/видео.html

I am using top line from melody 8 in Ari Hoenig's book.

@@michaelnesi0827 Thank you

@@littledoodle5689 thank you!

@@micahhill7103 thank you!

It is just a way I practice. If I am working on a solo, Pot Luck is pretty Fast, both are 12 bar blues so I loop the Pot Luck solo against this and other slower tunes like "Blues for Elvin", a lot of fun.

Thanks for watching!

It an exercise from his book.

@@jivadaya6439 I am also an open handed player, everything I play I can also play left hand lead. I have skills playing traditional but the open handed playing (because I am nuts), forced me to have to practice traditional grip both righty and lefty. So I decided to focus on match, I also play a lot of genres.

@@michaelnesi0827 Thanks for the response. Once again, I enjoy watching you play, my hat is off to you, sir

Bill Stewart played it at one of the Modern Drummer festivals. I just reversed what he did in addition.

@@ramsingivargis6616 thanks

@@ravestar_supreme I am using the book Syncopation Melody 2. There is a pdf in the details.

@@michaelnesi0827 thank you! Didn’t even know shorts have descriptions until now

I am in agreement, I have changed my snare tuning since then.

Thanks for watching.

@@michaelnesi0827I got the same one LOL. Fantastic cymbal. I really like their 20” Turk jazz. That cymbal is awesome.

@@jigthepuff4540 I will check that out. I really love the 30th series.

Thanks very much! He is playing RLRF(4),RLRLF(5),RLRF(4),RLRLF(5), RLRF(4),RL (24 Notes, two measures of 1/8 note triplets). You can get the transcription from Kevin Oshea Video, I will put link in details.

Very nice tuning!

Thanks for watching. This is super tricky because it has 1/16, 1/8, and 1/8 note triplets all in the solo. I reduced to it 50% and I am counting the triplets on the ride. When I encounter triplets in the solo they should align with the ride, 1/8, and 1/16 should not. No easy to do! I have a recording of Jim playing it with a bas layer, I will out a link in the details soon.

@@michaelnesi0827 got it, i think... so you ARE doing a triplet feel with the ride, AND you are layering that at certain bars with 1/8 or 1/16 notes w/various snare/BD patterns. in effect mixing triplet and straight time among different pieces of the kit am i understanding right? thank you for taking the time!

@@mcstivi yes, for the time keeping and the soloing I am reading and playing as notated. This is a page from Jim’s book the last page solo 2.

Thank you for the kind words. I was lucky to have studied with Jim when I was young. Many of the exercises are based on songs. I have other Jim Chapin based videos where you can download a list of them. Jim always sung when he played. There were audio recordings of Jim playing the exercises but were not included it was written in 1948. I believe he recorded them in the 60’s. I have some older LPs that are considered bootleg, they came with a version of the book as well, then they added them to the book purchase in recent years. Many of the early jazz books were written in 1/16 notes, Dom Famularo told me why specific to Jim’s, but I don’t recall. I may have an audio recording of his explanation. Anyway, the final exercise has 1/8, 1/8 note triplets, and 1/16 note notation. I try and keep the ride on 1/8 note triplets and play the 1/16 and 1/8 notes straight since triplets are also present. You could potentially swing everything at a slower tempo. The accents are another challenge. I practiced the book many ways, as written, and swung in certain examples. You can also play the 16ths as an up-tempo version converting them to 1/8 notes. The funk solo I did is essentially that. Hope this helps it is a complicated topic.

@@michaelnesi0827 wow thanks for the thorough reply! And how cool to have studied with Jim too!! I’ll have to get my copy of this book out and have another read through to apply / contextualise what you’ve just written. Thank you again! :))

Thanks very much! It is 3/4 and a two measure groove. most of the time, it is on beat one in measure 1, and in measure two, the third note of the triplet on beat 2. It is a beautiful pattern the way the hi hat and bass drum compliment one another.

Thanks very much. Added to the comments.

@@constantkiffer7924 thank you!

@@giantpunchprojects I play 8 measures of comping then use the top line of Syncopation ex, 1 and 2 which equates to 8 measures. I am thinking of the syncopation measure in terms of Jazz notation. The triplets are RFR, LFL, F=BD. Orchestration is based on long and short notes. Short notes on high tom, long on floor tom.

@@michaelnesi0827 The comping is improvised? That's some killer playing. Thank you for the explanation.

@@giantpunchprojects yes, thanks very much!
