@@donaldhayes4247 Got to bro!!! LOL thanks! Just know I am a big fan bro. My recent favorite moment of yours was Waiting For You on Julian Vaughn record 3:55-4:02 mark. I cried bro! LOL You really meant that joint. Thank you I needed that!
Thanks so much bro. If I remember correctly you are in DC. I was supposed to have been there on this past Thursday night with Marcus Miller, but it was postponed because one of us tested positive. I’m sure will be making that show up soon. Next time we are in the area we should hang out. You can even come and sit in with us if you like.

@@donaldhayes4247 Excellent music, the most sublime of smooth jazz and also with the illustrious participation of the musician Brian Culbertson, of whom I am a big fan. I didn't comment there because comments are disabled, but I leave my compliments and congratulations to you here.
I've seen this video of this excellent instrumental musical performance by Donald Hayes several times for many years now, but I want to congratulate the whole band and especially the keyboardist, what's his name? Greetings from Rio, Brazil

I get what you're saying, but all grooves don't have to have 16ths on the hats in order to swing...The pocket/space feels great....sometimes less really is more.
@@jackieclark8253 oh for sure no doubt there's a ton of ways to keep the pocket great as a big time toto fan this song feel different without it. no bad at all I just love Jeff Porcaro's sense of feel in drumming. There's nothing at all wrong with this way at all and im not saying all grooves need 16ths on hi-hat to swing either. some of my favorite stuff is half time shuffles personally and 1/4 hi hat grooves too. i was stating this song to my ears without the groove that Jeff played feels weird mostly because i study Jeff like a religion only reason why it feels strange to me
@@deadshot4245 …Weird? Strange? Not too sure about that description. I’m a big of the late genius as well. It’s just a different take…not weird or strange at all. Btw…I wasn’t saying you felt all grooves should have 16ths,I’m saying it still swings without the 16ths. Just like when a drummer doesn’t hit the crash on the 1,you can still feel it. Just a different approach to a classic song.
Just wondering who your band members are cause It’s not listed and I’m a drummer myself? Are you the same Donald Hayes that played with John P. Kee back in the day?
@@markwiseman49 ....I find it strange you're the only one out of all the comments posted with something negative about this performance, but hey, it's a free country. 🙂 He's doing way more than filling in time.

@@donaldhayes4247 we’ll be there!! THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP!!!! I’m living in SF now!!!
Great. Be sure to say hello.
Spettacolare!! especially for the guitarist but I love them all! Good vibes!!
great job all around. only thing myself would change would be to keep the 16th notes on hihat to let it swing a bit more between the backbeat
