Danny has a way of making you feel like you are in the same room with him. He seems to be talking directly to the individual student. What a great teacher and great drummer.
Back in the early 2000s I was at a lesson with the great Joe Morello in NJ and Danny stopped by early to meet up with Joe for a visit. We both were in the waiting room warming up on practice pads and chatting! So cool...Well half way through my lesson Danny asked us if he could hang with us in the lesson room and watch! He gave some wonderful insight during the lesson weaved with Joe's. Afterwards the three of us went for dinner and talked for hours together. He loved Joe for sure. Thanks Danny! Steveo
I grew up during an exciting period for music in New York, the early 1980s. Danny lived here in New York and was very often playing in very small incredible music venues, sometimes the size of an average living room. Let me tell you, catching this guy up close and personal doing his thing is something you never forget. Plus, he’s a sweetheart, always took time to offer some advice or encouragement to young players, always positive.
I'm so thankful I took lessons from Danny back in the 90's. Changed many things about my approach to the instrument. I still have the exercises he wrote out for me and have passed them on to others. The two paradiddle exercise is great for up-tempo stuff (didn't show me that one!), but I use a triplet exercise to get young students used to just playing a slow-medium tempo spang-a-lang with basic comping in the left hand. It's eighth note triplets that are sticked RLL RLR RLL RLR, etc. Practice that on the snare drum accenting the R's and ghosting the L's. Then transfer the right hand to the ride and play the pattern. Hey...it's a start!
I used the Harold Jones ride cymbal pattern in 1996/97 when I was playing w the Basie band after studying the records w/Harold. I always thought it opened up the sound of the rhythm section. When you are playing 380bpm on jumpin' at the woodside, it really helped to reinforce the quarter note feel w/the bass and guitar. Nice video Danny!
Thank you Danny. Wow, great video. Very helpful. At 62 I still want to study the masters. Wish I was close enough for private lessons. Continued blessings and all good things!!!
Danny, I have loved your playing for so long. Saw you with Pat M. in 76 or77 in Gainesville Fla. Y'all were touring on the 1rst album I think. Never forget it. Harold Jones was a big influence on me for the Switch in Time Basie chart I played in high school jazz band. Quarter notes on the ride? HH chick on 2, cross styk on 4. So simple yet so swingin. Hope all is well. William
Brav-fing-o!!! That was fantastic, was getting stale needed some new content from abroad to refresh my perspective and boom Gottlieb to the rescue!!! Thanks Mr. Gottlieb for the awesome vid!!!!
I studied with Joe in the same store in early seventies - 1972-1977. He also taught from Jim Chaplin's book as well as from Stone's Stick Control. He used charge $20/HR but he did not charge me anything. We become good friends. There was a guy - Steve Foster who not only studied with him but also used to help him with some of his daily affairs because Joe had a poor eyesight.
Hey Danny. Gregg Karukas Here. Long time! I’m the guy who went to HS with Dale Carley. We hung with Pat a couple of times after the ECM all star show at Kennedy Center.....Cellar Door. . Nice video.
Many thanks Dan for this great lesson! I also would like you to know that you were the drummer on the album that defenitely influenced my life as a musician and music lover: The Pat Metheny Group (1978). Many thanks for your contribution to this album!
Thank You! I Will survive My self! A'm a 53 year old metal head try'n on drums, every single day!

I met Danny and Mark Egan after a show in a bar in Omaha...American Garage tour. I asked Danny a lame drummer question and he was gracious with his answer.
Me, just now: *Reading an old DrumMag, working on a septuplet exercise in the "Practice Pad" section.* Thinks: "I wish I could find a good jazz ride pattern exercise." *goes on RUclips* "Let's look at this one..... oh it's from DrumMag..... hey it's from October 2018.... hey Gottlieb mentioned the 'Practice Pad'.....wait a second...." *turns the page* OMFGFJFHTNDHDUFKDNRH
@@dannygottlieb4631 Thanks for answering Danny! I was amazed by the sound on the pad. It seems to me that they're perfectly balanced. Greetings from Chile!
Great set of tips, from one of my favorite drummers. I just noticed the "Harold Jones Pattern" being used by another great, Ed Shaughnessy, here: ruclips.net/video/emq7SthwG7Q/видео.html

Damn, this man is a legend to Pat Metheny fans! Glad I clicked on this one!

It's all in the wrist. Thanks man. When you did without sticks on the hi hat. That opens up my mind.
Giving credit where credit is due. Danny is fine drummer and a class act.
Thank you, Danny Gottlieb! Love your playing and the fact that you have committed yourself to educating others and sharing your wisdom.
That was a very nice PERSONAL insight! Awesome Danny!!!!

Love his playing on Pat mathenys Offramp, a far out record

Right yesterday I was covering American Garage from Pat Metheny Group, there's an amazing drumming there!
Hey Danny. Gregg Karukas Here. Long time! I’m the guy who went to HS with Dale Carley. We hung with Pat a couple of times after the ECM all star show at Kennedy Center.....Cellar Door. . Nice video.
I've only been playing drums for 52 years and not once, did I consider playing right hand paradiddles in a row. Wow!Thanks for the eye-opener.
Thanks Dan great lesson :)
much appreciated, thank you.
Great approach! I will definitely incorporate repetitive paradiddles to try and increase my speed! Thanks!
Fantastic Dan!!!

Thank you!!!
Thanks Danny...from a frustrated 'jazz' drummer.🥁
Hey Danny, nice video. Do you do anything special to avoid wrist problems like CTS? Hope all is going well for you and Beth.
Cheers mate,choice vid
Can you play triplets with left hand at metronome 180? You should be able to if you studied with Joe number of years.
I'm guessing the answer to this is probably 'yes.'
-- Wondered what became of Danny-- He’s a fantastic player--
Awesome.

I met Danny and Mark Egan after a show in a bar in Omaha...American Garage tour. I asked Danny a lame drummer question and he was gracious with his answer.
so, the idea is no tension in the arm or wrist, and from practicing you don't feel any tension with the fast ride pattern?...thank you-
Me, just now:

What drumsticks Is he using?
Hot sticks!
Hi from Danny.. They are Hot sticks 2B. I have been using them since the mid 80's. Great balance and perfect for me! Thanks for watching!
@@dannygottlieb4631 Thanks for answering Danny! I was amazed by the sound on the pad. It seems to me that they're perfectly balanced. Greetings from Chile!
He's playing so fast with those big sticks.
good lad.................
thats like what bob moses talks about in his book. Drum wisdom
Why are you in the janitorial supply room!
After watching this, I feel like my stick grip is so bad. I dont know how to fix that…. 😢
