All the young up and coming drummers thank your lucky stars that you're able to see and hear these great drummers. Back in 1989 there was no internet or You Tube to see these videos. I can't imagin how much of a better drummer I could have been if I had access to all the greats back then.
There are no shortcuts to mastering the drum set. It takes countless hours (years) of practice to get "good", whether you watch videos of great drummers or not. The hard work is sitting down behind the drum kit and practicing relentlessly, not watching other drummers play.
@@mark52111and one of the most crucial parts to becoming a more proficient instrumentalist is being able to watch and learn from other musicians. The person you responded to never even hinted that it was the only ingredient. Hell, I learned Dream Theater's Images and Words album front to back in the early 90s and was using different, more difficult stickings than Portnoy and never knew it until YEARS later when I finally got to watch one of their tour videos. It's incredibly helpful and informative, especially for kit players.
Richard Tee & Cornell Dupree brings the Church. Eddie Gomez can play the funk (but he also played with Bill Evans). Ronnie Cuber brings the snarly R&B. Steve Gadd grooves relentlessly and the entire band just kicks butt.
I was fortunate (I'm keyboardist Jonathan Sorrell) to play with both Steve Gadd and Eddie Gomez on a Philippe Sarde film score in Paris around this time. Consumate professionals, and total gents. Steve Gadd even caught a lift with me from central Paris to Studio Davout, where we recorded with Toots Thielmans and the Orchestre de Paris.
Subscription puts an end to that… it’s worth being able to see and hear what you want without waiting for ads. Has probably saved me 20+ hours so far - 😎🥁 (by the way)- meant in good faith! Keep groovin’
An amazing performance, the whole band is really on it throughout. The highlight for me was not the drum solo but the groove Steve Gadd laid down, quite outstanding!
I got to see Richard Tee, Cornell Dupree and Gadd in a band called Stuff at a club owned by Cissy Houston in 1974. Richard Tee rocked the place. Dupree is as tasteful a guitarist as you will ever come across.
Noticed Steve playing the open hi-hat on-the-offbeat disco groove. I remember back in disco days hearing that Steve was its creator. Cannot verify but it always stuck in my questionable head….?
To me it sounds like they are playing that sick funky hillbilly grove from the seventies that you heard in so many movies of that era. Car chases from the man and if there was every an instrument that had its hayday it was the saxophone in the 80s. It was in everything and at tines the lead instrument. RLTW 3/75
As usual Steve's Yamaha kit sounds great as does the ring in item - that snare drum looks to me like it's a Ludwig Acrolite.....Yamaha would not be happy about that.
I loved his drumming on Steely Dan Aja. He is definitely up there with the greats.. Billy Cobham Carl Palmer Neil Peart Bill bruford Vinny c a l l i u t a Simon Phillips Aynsley Dunbar rod morganstein Dave weckl Terry Bozzio😊
These guys are on FIRE! I was lucking enough to see Steve live (only once) and Richard played on a bunch of albums I bought way back in the day, but I've never even heard of Cornell. As soon as he started to play I thought, he sounds like Gatemouth Brown - I love it! You can hear almost every style of guitar, and all at the same time, with a player like Cornell. This is reminiscent of the Apple Juice album which Richard and Steve played on, and has the same energy. For some reason a couple of very old videos have popped up on my feed in the last several days, for anyone that likes this high energy jazzy / bluesy / R&B-ish music, check out this video from the GRP All Star Big Band: Sister Sadie GRP ALL STAR BIG BAND ruclips.net/video/6RUHCt3jzyo/видео.html
His trusty Yamaha Recording Custom plus the legendary Ludwig 5 by 14 inch Supraphonic Snare, arguably one of the most recorded snare drums in music history.
Stretch your listening out further, and you’ll find Gadd in far more zingy musical circumstances than anything with Steely Dan. Gadd’s work with a wide variety of Fusion Jazz artists, from Chick Corea to Lee Ritenour to Stanley Clarke and more is a treasure trove of drumming tastiness. ❤️👍🏻

Sure, blame the internet 😉
I feel this with every fiber in my body.
specially if we would have use a app such as Slowdowner , that would have been the shit 😊

So elegant. He makes breathe his drum. Breathes, nuances, dynamics, silences, to me that's the key for a great solo.
In Gadd We Trust!!!!!! and what a killer band!!!

Stuff.
Absolutely 😊
That may one of the most musical drum solos I’ve ever heard.
Let me guess... same 3 drum licks he has done for 50 years? Let's see...
@@jessebillson those 3 licks will have more feel and taste than anything youll ever play in your life
@hp2823 if you spend your whole life doing the same exact thing each time, then I hope you're really good at whatever that thing is.
@@jessebillson you couldnt hold his beat in time for three minutes, its not what you play its how you play it
@jamespettersson9655 this is the same thing that everyone says every time!!! 🙄
What an amazing drummer , Gadd is.....
Praise Gadd! That was some premium Gaddness.

JS u are right up there with the best 💯🥝🇳🇿fan
@@raymaynard4364 That's so kind of you to say 🙏
Come mi piacerebbe almeno conoscerlo e umilmente strigergli la mano.
That bass drum during Richard Tee's piano solo! Good grief you could set your watch to it. Just amazing.
Steve Is Steve.
was thinking exactly the same!
He said I think in that Musician's Institute clinic of his that he spent so much practice time watching Richard Tee's foot lol
Ronnie RIP! Thanks for the great solo!
Which one is Ronnie?
Steve is a machine…. with soul!🙏💪👊
Yes, stiff like a machine, especially around the 80s.
No favourite of mine, although I like him much better in recent years.
He is still the man! All his work with stuff, steely dan, eric clapton are gold.
Phenomenal Steve Gadd👌
What an insane band! They all just cooked! What an excellent collection of some of the world’s best musicians! This is amazing🔥🔥
Good Gadd! Incredible stuff.
Outstanding
My favorite part of this is the ad that pops up right at the Gadd solo. Awesome. Love RUclips.
Sacrilege of the highest order! RUclips gods having a chuckle there for sure 😂
Adblock extension FTW
I use adblock extension in Chrome and never see ads ever.
Subscription puts an end to that… it’s worth being able to see and hear what you want without waiting for ads.
Has probably saved me 20+ hours so far - 😎🥁 (by the way)- meant in good faith!
Keep groovin’
An all around clinic! Fellow Rochesterian Steve Gadd!
LADY MADONNA,.WHAT A BAND !
Yes, God Save The Queen!
Steve Gadd in best form, great!
wow....an absolute masterclass across the board....
Oh snap! When he hits the cowbell around 7ish minutes, I fell out!!
Steve is by far one of the best jazz drummers ever. Love him with Grover Washington too.
Come on. That’s a bit over the top. 🙄
I saw Grover play at Just Jazz in Philly in 1973.
He's no jazz drummer at all.
At least he does not play like a jazz drummer.
@@FYMASMDno it isn’t
Steve is the Great !!!
Steve on fire!
From the first note to the last, just as fine as can be. It’s how a band should play.
Steve toured with Eric Clapton for quite a long time too. Amazing drummer.
And it’s Tee Time 🎉
It's a beautiful thing everytime!
This is good Stuff.
I see what you did there... It really should be in the title.
Breath-taking, thank you! 🍾❤️
The musicianship is just stratospheric across the board.
Incredible
true god of drums
Fantastic
Just Simply Wow Double Wow🎷🔥🎷🎹🔥🎹🎸🔥🎸🥁🔥🥁
Amazing!
Exelente solo de Gadd
An amazing performance, the whole band is really on it throughout. The highlight for me was not the drum solo but the groove Steve Gadd laid down, quite outstanding!
Fantastic and tight!
SIMPLY ,......GREAT!,...............GOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD !!!!!!............COURAGE!
Word!
THE GREAT GADD LEGEND DRUMMER 🥁 HE JUST HAD THE GADD STYLE IAM💯 RIGHT All ways Tell a great drummer 🥁 by what he can do with his foot 🦶 💯🥁right again
brilliant!
Just grooves along!
The amount of air it requires to play a baritone like that is impressive. The lungs on these guys, wow.
6:00 in…. There’ll never be another like Steve Gadd….
Awesome solo drums !
Awesome
I got to see Richard Tee, Cornell Dupree and Gadd in a band called Stuff at a club owned by Cissy Houston in 1974.
Richard Tee rocked the place. Dupree is as tasteful a guitarist as you will ever come across.
Hold on. Off to the races 😊🎵💎
Steve Gad is my God!!!!
Oh My Gadd!
素晴らしい ただただ それだけです＾＾
Gadd: the master of dynamics. What a pocket. 4:25 mark...mwah!
The One The Only 💯 Dr. Feelgood and all these players
Steve GOD..
Wooooooo 5:57
i'm trying to figure out what the right foot's doing. i was looking for a double bass pedal but the hi hat keeps going.
@@joerockhead7246 I don’t think Gadd ever used one. He may now for the heck of it put he’s just not that kinda player
Friggin' cool.
¡Divino!
Noticed Steve playing the open hi-hat on-the-offbeat disco groove. I remember back in disco days hearing that Steve was its creator. Cannot verify but it always stuck in my questionable head….?
Cat with the heartbeat on the drums bass drum
Rest in peace, Ronnie
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Gadd makes you listen in drum.
ガットさんカッコイイ！😆👍🥁

All the great layers have one thing in common, they all sleep.
god on drums!
Richard tee was so talented
As usual Steve's Yamaha kit sounds great as does the ring in item - that snare drum looks to me like it's a Ludwig Acrolite.....Yamaha would not be happy about that.
Gadd looked like Animal from the Muppets letting it all fly! Damn!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
2:50 Who designs and builds those insanely complicated saxophones?
I loved his drumming on Steely Dan Aja. He is definitely up there with the greats.. Billy Cobham Carl Palmer Neil Peart Bill bruford Vinny c a l l i u t a Simon Phillips Aynsley Dunbar rod morganstein Dave weckl Terry Bozzio😊
That Hi Hat really "opens" up when he steps off it.
Did this man really play all of this in tight leather pants? What a fucking icon
I have the exact same shirt as stevie gadds lol, mine is a little more oversized though 😂
Mostruoso il sassofonista! 😮😮😮😮 Scusate un lapsus chi e' '?
The pianoplayer!!!
Wonder if this was before or after the Buddy rich memorial concert the same year. Similar solo and licks
I had no idea that Steve Gadd was a triplet lover. I mean looked like he was tossing a salad or something crazy.
Who put the advertisement in right as Steve was starting his solo?

Who’s at guitar?
Cornell Dupree
eddy gomez!!!
Richard Tee
ANYONE HAVE THE GADD TRASCIPTION?
Awesome!❤
John Bonham was good, but not as good as the Doctor (aka Steve Gadd) he's simply the best living drummer today and has basically been since he began
Remnants of Stuff :-) but where is Joe Cocker ?
Are these his Yamaha's? Whats with the snare?
His trusty Yamaha Recording Custom plus the legendary Ludwig 5 by 14 inch Supraphonic Snare, arguably one of the most recorded snare drums in music history.
It is music not like they found the cure for cancer.
I’m not so sure this music isn’t the cure for cancer.
To me his masterpiece is Aja. Of course just my opinion.
Stretch your listening out further, and you’ll find Gadd in far more zingy musical circumstances than anything with Steely Dan.
Gadd’s work with a wide variety of Fusion Jazz artists, from Chick Corea to Lee Ritenour to Stanley Clarke and more is a treasure trove of drumming tastiness. ❤️👍🏻
ol dicky tee playing lady madonna during his break lol
Where is the singer??
They don’t need no singer.
Listen to Steve gadd on the leprechaun with Chick Corea😊
Aw…aw….aw, aw, aw, aw
Who is the guitarist? I know everyone else…
Cornell Dupree.
the piano defo took his inspiration from Fats Domino
What’s with guitarist’s nervous habit of touching the volume knob?
I pooped my pants over this.
It's been 3 days since this comment I hope you're still not sitting in it😅
