This is what masterful drumming is. Incredible groove, control, and feel. Steve Gadd has it all.
And sound!
If you want the transcription of the first part : ruclips.net/video/j4vmG9mwNLc/видео.html
Hè is the best , The Top
He is one of the few drummers that his drums sound like a melody and does not need music to accompany it. True genious on the throne.
Yes 🎉 Tony Williams and Ginger Baker two others who could do it.
Not many others.
Incredible that Gadd is still learning after all these years.
If you notice the beginning of this solo, he is practicing displacement ideas. He spoke about this in a recent interview he did with Rick Beato. He spoke about how during the pandemic, the 15 minute warmups he used to do prior to gigs ended up turning into hours and hours.
This is how he came up with Messing around with displacement and a newfound way of playing the drums.
He seemed super enthused about learning more. Just unreal!
Great comment, really useful
I would go as far to say that if your mindset is that you dont have anything to learn, then you will never be truly good at something. The process of learning/reading never ends. Never.
If I ever accidently have a second of sounding like that... It will be the happiest day of my life.
Steve Gadd is THE KING of drumming
A true master. The only bad thing in this video is that it ends.
Steve is a genius!
Touch, time, phrasing, pocket, ideas. It's absolute mastery.
It's almost pornographic the amount of action he has going on in the pocket.
Yea I'm gonna need 10 more minutes of that please. What a *feel* he has!
So glad I bought a recording custom years ago. Still kicks ass!
You're a legend sir Steve Gadd! :-)
the combinations of the flams on the toms/snare are sensational.
The greats always amaze me with the attention to the space between the notes as well. It's not just the pure chops and notes around
the drums with the feel and the beats-it's all about when NOT to play that creates the difference between the real musicians and the
guys who fill up the bars with notes. Thanks for sharing this.
It's amazing how relaxed his arms and wrists are.
Gadd is still the man. And the drums are tuned to perfection here as well. So great.
His touch is very soulful. I don't know exactly what I am talking about. But it's true very soulful.
I've been drumming for 35 years and I'd say you do know exactly what you're talking about!
Incredible. I love Steve's rudimental style, and he's so fluid and rhythmic. This is what a Master delivers as a drum solo - something you can groove to.
I could listen to this all day! In fact, I will!
Sir Gadd could be playing gold rims, black rims, or trash cans & he would still make them sing. Like everyone has commented, he had it all creativity, musicaility, timing, etc. He's got "Gaddola"! A lesson & a joy to listen to every time.
THE sound!
Ah this is why i love Steve Gadd. The beat n stroke he plays always filled with dynamism and deliciously groovy. Hats off old man!
My favourite drummer ever! All of his music is a part of music other musicians are playing together with him. His music is a good groove, special feeling in the song and liquid complexity. Great!
The Godfather of contemporary drumming!
One of the All Time Masters of Drumming, Mr. Steve Gadd !!
If we truly listen to the music he makes, it doesn’t take long to realize that he is one with his instrument. Whether he is playing quickly and loud or slow and soft it doesn’t matter because his thoughts and feelings that are inside are constantly being expressed to the listener. Thank you for sharing your talent for so many years.
Best,
Brian
Incredible groove and sound ... Best drummer !
the legend of Gadd!
The drums sound IMMENSE!
Steve, hummmmmm : A legendary groove not as others 🤘🤘🤘
The man is unstoppable.
This guy shows real promise.
That's a 100% no-nonsense drum solo.
Easily best drummer I’ve seen live, Steve Gadd. Deepest goosebumps pocket! So good
ONE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME !!! No one sounds like Gadd but Gadd
Such a treat. Absolutely wonderful playing, and those drums sound incredible! That 10" rack tom is tuned perfectly.
Yeah, did you notice that he wasn't hitting the cymbal? Despite that, what a spreading drum solo.
He hit the hi hat))
Didn't even need it once. What a legend
He was among the first to buy or begin to play the great YAMAHA 9000 series wayback in the late 70's in the States (USA) But I was among the very first to buy me that same drum kit. And now some 40 years later I've bought me a brand new Yamaha Stage Custom and I'm in love! It feels like finding a lost brother to have them back in my BedRoom Studio
Take note if you're one of those that can only play fast as lightning trying to impress someone. Here's the real deal. Smooth tempo, solid fundamentals and plays with a musicality that speed demons can't produce. This is why Dr. Steve Gadd is the best.
Keep Playing Steve!
合気道の達人を見てるかのような錯覚に落ち入ってしまった。もはや仙人の領域
What a piece of art!
Depuis le temps il n’y a rien eu de mieux. Steve est musical et ça donne envie, il est aussi compréhensible quand il joue, comme si nous parlions tous la même langue. Il reste et restera le boss, merci Steve. 😊🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😉
That same cowbell groove briefly, from the Buddy Rich Memorial Scholarship performance 🤩
Wow!!
Very Beautiful Playing so
always sounds Good
Gadd is the man...🥁😎🥁
That’s why he’s Steve Gadd
Why is Steve Gadd so good 🙏🏻🤝👍🏻!!
Steve Gadd ........master!!!
Unparalleled feel and timekeeping ability as always.
With Gadd there is a before and after in the drums ....... absolutely master.
This is exactly why. Steve was the most sought after in the 70’s.
Then he eventually tours with Clapton. You can’t teach feel. And he is the greatest. 🤘
He’s such a legend I love Steve Gadd
There will never be another..
absolutely clean and powerful!
The better you get, the more space you can leave between the beats. 🤴🏽
I'll tell you how good a drummer he is...I heard his cowbell, but didn't see it and for a second I just assumed he could just make cowbell sounds with no cowbell because he's Steve Gadd.
本当、最高のドラマーだよな
Incredible. Simply the best. His grooves are at another level
Beautifully tuned drums 🔑
Pure music
まだ現役でいらっしゃるなんて流石
素晴らしい演奏をありがとうございます。
I’m from Western NY and my teacher had a good relation with John Beck from Eastman. Bottom line, whatever Steve learned, he built on that and taught ALL of us how to play, whether we realized it or not. He make it look so easy, but….it’s not! Waiting for Gaddiments 2 Steve.
Великий Стив Гедд, спасибо!
Watch this almost everday.. I'm 78 like Gadd.. no adjectives to describe how amazing this is.. wow
Steve Gadd & Recording Custom…
Great collaboration!
Immaculate, Steve Gadd is one of the greatest to ever combat the artform.
Master of dynamics and applying rudiments.
What an inspiration of a man.
Always comes down to some rudimentary basics with him.
That's fundamentally what his playing is
He does quite an impressive job with those rudimentary basics though 😉.
Steve Gadd, the standard by which drummers are measured in today's drum world.
If it was you would have hardly any metal bands
Groove king!
Love it. Starts out with flam accents and builds off that basic rudiment. Great drumming🤘.
THE INSPIRATION of many a drummer, including myself. An absolute legend in drumming history,period.
The rudiment master. Smooth, effortless and clean. Just amazing
Wonderful. You can hear Steve's teaching us here; beat displacement and everything. 🎶🌟👍
There is no one smoother on the kit than Gadd! I recommend to those who haven't seen it, the video of him and Stanley Clarke dueling it up. Regardless of your playing level, that video will school you.
Interesting how he's got black die-cast hoops on those Recording Custom toms, which are not how they are normally outfitted. Sounds great!
The drums as a melodic, orchestrated, instrument rather than a time-keeping device...devoid of feel, expression, and dynamics....MASTER.
What a controlled yet lose playing he delivered. It's like a storyteller and that's what I like I soloing!
Крутой и по сей день, крепкого здоровья Стив🔥🔥🔥👍
All about feel & Being in that pocket.. one of the GOATS for sure
No substitute foe Yahama Recording Customs and whom better to drive them than Uncle Steve😊
These drums sound amazing....and Steve Gadd is the best to demo them!!
Master of swing. Master of just hitting things in any pattern you wish for.
I think Yamaha Recording are the real drums set sound have to be.
Absolutely masterful and mesmerizing.
Can't say this enough. Steve Gadd hits the drums imo the way they should be. I think it's perfect execution. I've been using his signature sticks for decades 😊
I love Steve Gadd. Such relaxed backbeats and always comes through with a solid groove. Wonderful player.
Marvelous syncopation & independence!! GADD IS BADD!!!
Finesse and precision Inc. Rhythm to my ears. The Legend Steve Gadd.
A true master!
The FEEL! It just gets better with Steve, transcending time and space.
Bravo Sir 👍🤟
👍🙂‼️Mutant-beastly Gaddness!!!!
Spacing is just incredible.
This is what I call a drummer
National treasure.. 💙
Feel Not Speed that"s Musik!!!💘
Sencillamente maravilloso.
What an amazing touch on the drums. So relaxed and syncopated. Perfect dynamics
Glad to hear he's still playing those timeless grooves!
