How crazy. 8 years later I think to my self I want to watch some badd ass reggae drumming and this came to my mind. So i look up the unforgettable name. And I find your legit ass comment. !!
Holy shit I used to watch this all the time in 2006/7 but I could not remember your name for the life of me. Just finished watching your drumeo video and when they said your name it clicked. So glad I could come back to this. Still amazing
i found the first song!!!! man, i looked all over youtube for this song, however i must warn all of you that have been looking for it just like me, its not the same rythm as the one on this video but it is the same song...looks like Gil using a remixed version...its by AUGUSTUS PABLO - 555 DUB STREET
This guy embodies the concept of musical versatility. He jams with all his heart to classic reggae grooves and ska, but he's played with the Dillinger Escape Plan - nuff said.
I have viewed this like a thousand times my grandson makes me repeat it over and over I'm still not sick of it so it must be good he's 2 i guess he wants to be a drummer not a guitarist dang!
@@evanseventy7593 I have to thank you for that. It was only through your comment that I was made aware of my typo. :) But it's really frightening how quickly time flies.
Just outta sight mon -)) Yeahh ... got me skankin" on that one, nuff respect, dis is heartbeat music showin' forth the marvellous works of creation livin" in I and I ... post more videos please cos' you rock the roots man -)
I'm not a big reggae fan, but this drumming makes it all so frickin awesome ! reggae can be the lamest music style, but it can also be one of the greatest!
okay, from what i know, the songs he plays is "Swing Easy" and another song called "Sinsemilla". but the thing is that he has more up-to-date recordings, so he most have had people re-play these songs to sound more modern and better. what he plays here is different from what's on record, but it's still the same songs. i hope that helps ALOT of people.
Too many haters on here. This guy really knows what he is doing. Amazing playing. Sensimilla and Rockfort Rock are a couple of the songs he is playing. 5 stars and favorited. Im in the OC. Send me a pm if you need a reggae bass or guitar player :)
This is some of the best reggae drumming I've ever seen. I met you Gil once in Sydney, Nova Scotia...I was the young cat at the bar that offered you mushrooms hehe
Hello!!!!!!!!!!Dude you are wicked on those drums...............Very nice accenting I might add this video has introduced me to a new style of playing thanx............I also checked out some of your other vids nice!!!!!
17 years later. Still one the best drumming videos on RUclips. I first saw this when I was 14 or something. Now 31 y.o. Still kicks ass.
16 years later and still coming back to this for my reggae drum fix.
8 years later - still the best reggae drumming video on the Internet! :)
jimmyshitbags Yeah, I just came back for my monthly fix myself. 🤙✌️

Here's the best IMHO ruclips.net/video/pEUiCjZsaW0/видео.html
Come on!
Best drum video on youtube
Still listening in 2022
One of the gems I encountered during the early days of RUclips 🙂
15 yes later and I’m still getting goosebumps
I remember watching this video when it came out
That quick fill at 1:18 is the tastiest sounding fill I've ever heard in my life. I can't get enough of it!
you had me check it. slick! peace
Keeps me coming back several times a year... Agree!
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT
@@stankywank6707 four stroke fill - sequence is kick-kick-crash(left hand) floor Tom(right hand)
His right foot is crazy to be that quick and clean
somehow I just keep coming back to this video every 6 months or so
Dude I was 15 when this came out I’m 32 now and I’m so thankful I can come to this once in a while.
I first saw this video 10 years ago & it still dope af
Same here b
i will never get tire of watching these video
I haven't watched this video in years that intro with those horns is miraculous.
Holy shit I used to watch this all the time in 2006/7 but I could not remember your name for the life of me. Just finished watching your drumeo video and when they said your name it clicked. So glad I could come back to this. Still amazing
I'm not even a Reggae fan, but I am amazed at Gil's playing every time I watch this.
Couple few times seein you with DEP and Stolen Babies and I keep coming back to this as a straight up lesson in groove and reggae perfection
8 years later still need the name of that horn part in the beginning 😭
U find out ?
Nah man still no luck 🙄
swing easy
i found the first song!!!! man, i looked all over youtube for this song, however i must warn all of you that have been looking for it just like me, its not the same rythm as the one on this video but it is the same song...looks like Gil using a remixed version...its by AUGUSTUS PABLO - 555 DUB STREET
I remember I was 23 yrs old watching this video. I wanted to play reggae so bad after this.
I have a gig tonight in which I'm playing some reggae, watching this guy for inspiration. Thumbs up if he inspires you too!
This video is legendary
I can't stop watching Gil Sharone and Stewart Copeland videos. Tell the people the news. Reggae music is on the loose.
Many years have passed away... And still remains 1 of the best reggae (if not the best) grooves ever!
17 years ago, this was love at first sight reggae rhythm.
Thank you Gil Sharone.
1st Listen....now an influenced drummer as well...THANK YOU ! Amparo your right in so many ways...
His feel on Swing Easy is just jaw dropping! Love the Wicked Beats DVD
This was one of the very first videos I watched on youtube many years ago , Dec 19 and still rocking....
This guy embodies the concept of musical versatility. He jams with all his heart to classic reggae grooves and ska, but he's played with the Dillinger Escape Plan - nuff said.
insane , just insane.. great rimshots and the side snare is amazing. very inspiring.
Everytime i watch this i think to myself very rare to hear a drummer play this energetic, flashy, tasty and compelling at the same time!
I don't know how many time i have watched this video over the years. Love it!
This video was literally the anthem for my summers during high school 🥲
How can anyone dislike this. Oh maybe Gil Sharone hates it the 46 times he veiws it.
Lol, this guy's an actual professional, famous drummer
I can watch this guy all day never get enough of his funk. Makes you want to hit the wood shed every time. 🥁
this man has truly mastered the art of drums. every single note is is rhythmically, dynamically and tastefully PERFECT
I have viewed this like a thousand times my grandson makes me repeat it over and over I'm still not sick of it so it must be good he's 2 i guess he wants to be a drummer not a guitarist dang!
who dislikes this!?! gil sharone best drummer alive!
Ooooooh YEAAAAAHH!
That's what I'm talking about dude.
Been coming back to this for years
If anyone who knew Gil could tell him to please make a DVD about his approach on reggea rythms we could all die in peace...!
16 years later and still this jam sounds PERFECT! (2023)
My goodness, you put your heart and soul into this performance, lovely.
Now that's what reggae is all about...playin with da spirit and heart!
Mo' fire...bless
probably some of the best reggae drumming I have ever seen. brilliant video. I can't wait til I can play like Gil!
Can't stop watching this...unbelievable!
The song is called "swind easy" and it was composed by the kings of ska, the skatalites!
No but they covered it in 1997 on their album Ball Of Fire. Original is by Soul Vendors
"Swing Easy" of course. ;-)
@@evanseventy7593 Yes, that's right. But Soul Vendors and Skatalites are nearly the same musicians.
@Schmidthorst69 that's quite impressive. You swiftly replying to a comment you made 17 years ago!
@@evanseventy7593 I have to thank you for that. It was only through your comment that I was made aware of my typo. :)

Love this vid. Your crash with the upturned splash just rings on and on!
I could listen to him play for days.
I'm not a big reggae fan, but this drumming makes it all so frickin awesome ! reggae can be the lamest music style, but it can also be one of the greatest!
This sooo rocks! Some parts are so neat laid back and tight! Shows that not all rock/metal drummers are just blasting nerds.
This is the best reggae drumming that I've ever seen
Mihai Drums I’ve been searching for something better for the last 8 years and still haven’t found one.... 😂🤙
Haven't seen sly Dunbar when he was with Black Uhuru?
You need to go out more.
By far. But theres is something horribly wrong with this video and it tears me apart. Its too just too short! It is completly unfair.
i Can not stop watching this Video!

So silky smooth. Sharone is as awesome as he is versatile.
Hell yes man!! If you cant feel the rythym in this song and/or dont feel like dancing to it, you are definitely watching the wrong stuff on RUclips.
i wish this song was longer!!!!!
Your up there with the best..karigan.domink.marky drums.ect...get get enough of you guys .brilliant.
I'm stoked on ire works. I bet Sharone is gonna sound great on it. Dillinger I have never been disappointed in DEP's choices in new members.

Ben Weinman still says to this day that Gil was the best drummer The Dillinger Escape Plan ever had. Hard to argue with that..
whniwsyrsndtrck Its hard to argue, though chris pennie was pretty damn good too
Roy Diedesch
Pennie is a living metronome. Perfect timing behind the kit.
His independence is fantastic
Not to mention the passion is there as well :)
Smooth as peanut butter Gil!! Word up!
