Outstanding I just had to hire the kid nextdoor to come over every hour and ask to play catch with any sports ball to get me away from your videos yes I'm addicted and learn so much even if I thought I already knew you always leave me with more or appreciative reminders thks
i appreciate your love for art blakey haha he's probably my biggest inspiration. thanks so much for this video, i appreciate your lessons so much, sorta hard to find bebop lessons anywhere else online that are easy for me to understand
What a great lesson! I’ve been playing Steve Gadd’s version for years but had no idea Art Blakey and Elvin Jones applied this groove in such a cool way. Thank you!
You prolly dont give a damn but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Gregory Samson Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Wonderful explanation of the Mozambique groove and applying it to different variations in the jazz, funk and Latin styles. Kudos for breaking it down so expertly, Quincy! 🙏🏾
I have been working on this groove for decades now. I was finally feeling good about getting the Elvin version down a bit but I was missing that open/close hi hat on 3 part. So, back to the drawing board. Thank you Quincy! You make my ears big!
Thanks for another great lesson and congratulations on the release of your new recording "Q Vision." I listened to the album HIFI quality on TIDAL streaming music service and was pleased to find 3 more of your albums available on your artist page, keep up the great work. Loved the Elvin Jones information, the groove on "A Love Supreme Pt1" is epic, so infectious and soulful. What a contrast to Art Blakey's "A Night in Tunisia" with the straight Latin interpretation and kick butt tempo. Superb lesson showing the many feels and colors of the Mozambique, very inspiring.
Quincy Davis you’re welcome. Now I’ve got a week of things to practice. I’ll them one at a time and practice for a couple of days each until I’ve got it. It takes a bull dog a little longer to get it because I don’t have any thumbs! Seriously, I really appreciate you doing this, thanks again!
Wow that was pure fire, best lesson ever seen. Twas something every drummer should practice, to me this is missing link to better life as a drummer. I have played lots, also teaching . I have Many times tried to copy Art Blakey , and wonder how to play right this groove from heaven :) Now I know better. May I ask details of your ride cymbal? Sounds like magick:) Thanks a lot, there Will be more grooving months still to Come. May the force be whit U. All good to You, sir.
@@drumqtips Thanks to you sir :) This is very important work you do for every drummer. We keep on jamming those mosambique grooves whit my improvisation band. Pure fire :)
@@drumqtips It be great if you could do like a series. Elvin, Tony, Art, Max etc. Personally I think its very helpful to be able to see and hear some of the details and nuances that are trademarks for each player. There are so many great drummers in jazz history alone that it can be overwhelming sometimes. Thanks again for your great content and wisdom! Peace&Groove!
Hi Quincy. Your video’s are very well explained. Can you do more Art Blakey. I have been using some things I learned from his records for over fifty years. However, some things still remain a mystery. For example his paraddle rolls. Thank you.
Another great vid!! Could you do a lesson on left hand + bass drum comping during up-tempo songs? My left hand articulation just goes out the window when the right hand is doing a lot of rebound-y strokes. Example tune would be Max Roach on Dexter Gordon's "You can depend on me"
Great lesson Q! Is it a bad thing to change the RH pattern occasionally when playing these grooves? Or should that be played consistently? Thanks again!
Great presentation ! Just curious , have you ever checked out any presentations of the mozambique as interpreted by it's cuban originator, Pello el Afrokan, or any other practitioners of the afro cuban musical traditions interpreting this particular rhythm?
To this point, I’ve only really focused on The New York and jazz version of the Mozambique used by the great Eddie Palmieri and his percussionist. I’ll check it out though. Thanks for the comment!
Hi mister Davis, thank you for this video. Could you cover Vernel Fournier's brushes on Woody'n You? How is he getting that sound?? Thank you and have a good break!
@@drumqtips watching? Are you kidding ? I’m transcribing!! Ha ha the slow down feature is amazing ....I used to think that might be cheating but ehhh I’m too old for that nonsense ... sloooow it down baby!!.... great videos....inspiring me to get some more things together
I'm really struggling with this apart from the funk groove version.. when it comes to the Tom pattern thing.. art blakey etc I can't remember the damn pattern in the right hand.. any chance u could break it down where to apply the Tom's ? Or am I just being crap..
Outstanding I just had to hire the kid nextdoor to come over every hour and ask to play catch with any sports ball to get me away from your videos yes I'm addicted and learn so much even if I thought I already knew you always leave me with more or appreciative reminders thks
Ha! Sorry my videos are like a drug to you Mr. White. LOL!!!
Very informative! Could you consider talking about a practice routine?
Great suggestion Long!
really nice work on these rhythms - really cleared things up about how to attack the diff styles with the Mozambique .
i appreciate your love for art blakey haha he's probably my biggest inspiration. thanks so much for this video, i appreciate your lessons so much, sorta hard to find bebop lessons anywhere else online that are easy for me to understand
I appreciate that Al! We both love Bubaina!
Beauty! Thanks and Blessings Quincy!
This is the best lesson for the Mozambi. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Quinzy Your free contributions are always among the most valuable to me! Thank you toni
I appreciate that Toni. Really my pleasure!
What a great lesson! I’ve been playing Steve Gadd’s version for years but had no idea Art Blakey and Elvin Jones applied this groove in such a cool way. Thank you!

@Gregory Samson it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account !
@Antonio Tadeo Happy to help :)
Thanks Quincy!Most everyone has seen the SG version, but maybe not the earlier versions, especially the swing Blakey..
Totally Ed! That's why I wanted to make sure I demonstrated different applications of it aside from the Steve Gadd version.
This is gold, Q. Thank you so much!
I love you reference the music!
Wonderful explanation of the Mozambique groove and applying it to different variations in the jazz, funk and Latin styles. Kudos for breaking it down so expertly, Quincy! 🙏🏾
Thanks a lot Nick!
As always, it is quite helpful.
Just headed over here after the Blakey lesson you just dropped! So much gratitude for all you do Q!
Thank you🙏🏾
Again Q very sweet!
Thanks again!

You can do it Frank! Thanks for watching.
Amazing video! thanks fo sharing your knowledge
Truly my pleasure. Thanks for watching!
Yeah Q! Reminds me of Tain's groove on Sing a Song of Song.
Most definitely Kent!
you are the best teacher
You're too kind!
West African and Afro Cuban rhythms adapted to the drum set. Very nice.
Thanks Santi!
Thanks man! Love your lessons
Thank you. Glad you like them!
That elvin and blakey groove!!!! Wow.
Thanks Rob. Elvin and Blakey were so amazing, right!?
Quincy Davis indeed they were. The deep groove on Big beat (blakey) and the real McCoy,speak no evil (Elvin ) is timeless!
Excellent performance, explanation and application! Bravo!
Many thanks Michael!
Wonderful lesson 👍
Glad you liked it Peter. As always, thanks for watching!
This is gold, Quincy! Love it! Thanks for the videos, it's always a lot to learn but mighty rewarding!

As always, Quincy, tasty AND useful. Very nice and thank you!!
My pleasure Justin! Thanks for watching and supporting my channel.
Sweet !!
Excellent examples and execution
Awesome content thank you!!
My pleasure!
Great lesson as always!
For next time, maybe a lesson about jazz in odd times? 5/4, 7/4, etc.?
Great idea Mindaugas!!

That's very kind of you BIll. Thank you. And yes, the difference between Elvin and Art on those grooves is HUGE!
Amazing video! Gives me a lot of things to work on. You have the best jazz drumming videos on RUclips!
That's very kind of you Nelson. Thank you.
Thanks, Quincy. Love the subtlety of the swing variation.
Glad you like it!
Great as always Quincy…Thanks very much! Is it possible to do a lesson on, underrated Master, Frankie Dunlop?
Great suggestion!
I love Frankie Dunlop!! So deeply swingin', clear, and assertive.
Your expertise and kind disposition makes it feel like I'm taking a valuable lesson from a good friend! Keep up the GREAT work!
That’s very kind of you. Thanks so much for watching.
Hi Quincy. Great lesson and also great coincidence that today I've just started to digging in Mozambique groove!
Wonderful!
Made my day! Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Quincy Davis you’re welcome. Now I’ve got a week of things to practice. I’ll them one at a time and practice for a couple of days each until I’ve got it.
It takes a bull dog a little longer to get it because I don’t have any thumbs!
Seriously, I really appreciate you doing this, thanks again!
Man love those grooves .. ❤️particularly the last one !
Thanks Chow!
Your cymbals sound good. Thanks for sharing your talents, and knowledge Sir.🥁🎼🎵🎵🥁
Thank you kindly!
The mozambique pattern is one sixteenth displaced backwards from something, i call the 5,5,3,3.
Great video. Well done Q. Maybe a video on how you prefer to record drums
Great suggestion! That could be easy enough to put together.
Great content! Very informative and smooth playing. What cymbal is that to your far right? I'm looking for that type of sound.
Fantastic, Elvin is the man, you’r 2nd !
You’re too kind Florent🙏🏾
Great! Appreciated.
Thanks for watching!
Learn the pattern leading with left hand also. Cool
Definitely Billy!
Thank you Quincy. This is something that will really get some variety in my playing.Easy to fall into the same patterns again and again!
Rock on Wilf!
Wow that was pure fire, best lesson ever seen. Twas something every drummer should practice, to me this is missing link to better life as a drummer. I have played lots, also teaching .

@@drumqtips Thanks to you sir :) This is very important work you do for every drummer. We keep on jamming those mosambique grooves whit my improvisation band. Pure fire :)
Brilliant Quincy. I had forgotten how hip the Buhaina groove on Caravan is!!
Hey Jason. It was actually the groove to A Night In Tunisia. I made a major blunder. The Caravan groove is equally as hip though!
@@drumqtips just checked out both again - you've prob seen this, but just in case ruclips.net/video/ADWODreyby0/видео.html
Great lesson, explained clearly. Many thanks Quincy!
Glad you liked it!
Fantastic material and awesome presentation! Thanks a lot!!
Glad you liked it!
How about an in depth dive on the style of Elvin Jones? Thanks for all the great content!
Woo. Great idea but I'll need some more time for that!!
@@drumqtips It be great if you could do like a series.

@@drumqtips For sure, maybe in 2021!
Great lesson and great playing! Thanks so much, Quincy - very inspiring to spent some time on my rusty old mozambique skills again!
Awesome. Thanks for watching!

My pleasure Sean! Thanks for checking it out.
Thanks for the awesome lesson. Do you have any tips on chart reading/counting bars/setting up hits etc please? Best wishes. Tom
Great suggestion! I'll do a video on this in the future.
Outstanding info! Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
Don’t forget when Art Blakey cooks a Mozambique it at light speed on Mosaic!
Thanks!!
No problem!
This video was aweaome Q.
Quick question am I wrong for thinking those were mambo bell patterns? Or at least close to it?
Hey Jake. This bell patter and the mambo bell pattern are very similar. Thanks!
Fantastic video. I had a lot of fun learning these grooves. Subscribed, and I only wish I had found your channel earlier!
Awesome, thank you!

Good idea Valerie. I'll have to chick it out!
Sir Quincy, the bell pattern is cascara with accents right? Correct me if I am wrong
Hi John. The bell pattern sounds similar to the cascara pattern but it's a bit different. Thanks for watching!
🔥
Quincy !! Amazing !!! At minute 12:25 are those triplets ?? The ending Elvin like fill there
Jordash! Yup, those are good 'ole triplets man. Thanks for watching homes!

@@jygmusic78 Accent the 2nd triplet partial of each beat for that extra swagitutde! Bill Stewart showed me that👊🏾
@@drumqtips I will! Thanks Quincy and Bill!!!
Thanks heaps Quincy, is there any chance of transcription please.
The pdf for these different grooves are on my website. Check the description box.
9:08 🔥🤣
Are you laughing at me??? Ha! Thanks for watching friend.
@@drumqtips No sir! Haha. I laughed out loud because the rhythm felt so good!
Very cool. A Peter Criss fan gave a thumbs down
I'm really struggling with this apart from the funk groove version.. when it comes to the Tom pattern thing.. art blakey etc I can't remember the damn pattern in the right hand.. any chance u could break it down where to apply the Tom's ? Or am I just being crap..
