It's really refreshing to find a well considered tutorial video series for drummers. Explained + demonstrated in layers is an easy way to learn and great way to teach, and combined with the history and listening suggestions you get a musical learning style. Please, keep them coming!
I recommend you just play the lick at the start, so people can first see if it's something they might want to learn before searching through your video to find the actual lick.
Just saw Bill Stewart play with Scofield a few weekends ago and he threw this phrase in a number of tunes. I immediately thought of this series. Love it!!
your effort making these 52 licks video in one year is awesome man! i'm not going to learn every steps of them, but from these videos i can learn so much how those great drummers put different rudiments as a building block of a complete musical phrase or sentence. great job! greetings from indonesia :)
thanks so much for this video series. enjoying it very much . maybe one of these weeks you can do a Tony Williams uptempo comping segment. maybe something he plays on the Jackie McLean cut Saturday and Sunday
I love your videos, and I'm a subscriber, but I don't think I've ever heard bill Stewart play anything like this at all. Are you referencing some particular recording? Just curious...
Hey Zach, thanks for subscribing! In the description right below the video, I include a youtube link where he plays it live (as well as the original Tony lick on Seven Steps to Heaven). However, you have to click on the description for it to fully open. Let me know if you can't find it!
just caught the end of this vid where you mention the Tony solo from Seven Steps.......he uses a very similar lick in the tune I mentioned in my previous comment ...Saturday and Sunday . one of the most fantastic drum solos in jazz history on that tune......pretty much zero classic bebop vocabulary ....just 100% odd Tony isms to anyone who is not familiar with that song type Jackie McLean Saturday and Sunday in the search bar right now
You're a great drummer and teacher. With the average kid's attention span, I'd recommend a brief but immediate demonstration. You don't touch the drums until 1:40 or so, which is fine with me. But you could broaden your appeal with a quick demo in action to hear what you're about to break down. Cheers, and thanks for the series!
+Thor Peenith You're totally right. This was one of the earlier ones, and I tried to get better at that. But also, I'm hell bent on NOT just passing on "licks," but instead I want to teach by using these licks. But certainly an earlier demonstration, and less talking helps be more concise. Thanks for the comment!
@@JazzDrummersResource No worries I appreciate you looking for it!! I was just looking through the Art of Bop drumming and it mentions this same concept so I was looking for applicaiton examples. Thanks so much!!
good job, the concept, the patience. really well done! and the history, nevr forget who came before us. regards from Uruguay! ( south america) check my videos.

That`s an Elvin Jones lick :)
and a tony lick, during his solo on seven steps.
yes they are gems, but i could have learned it in 2 min, thats all...
couldv'e learned it in two mins? but i guarantee that you haven't
perhaps a word of advice, maybe don't take 8min to teach a 2 or 3min lesson... get more views that way
