I've always loved Stewart Copeland's snare sound
The snare that comes in on the chorus of Spirits In The Material World is one of the best sounds ever made by human beings.
Dude, DUDE. I could go on for hours. I rate Message as one of the ten greatest drum performances in the history of drum performances. The drama, the flair, the creativity, the power and drive, the sheer musicality. And that “push and pull”. Drives me crazy every time I hear it. Copeland’s a titan in a band of titans. What a band.
Peace out, brother.
Seeing Stewart with Oysterhead last month was some bucket list shit. He’s still absolutely crushing it at 67.
I saw them in Colorado 5 weeks ago, their first night back after 14 years (or whatever). Such a great show! Being a drummer, and having Stewart as one of my favorite drummers, my eyes were fixated on him the entire night. And that's saying something! Les is one of my favorite humans as well. Well, he actually might be an alien. As great of a concert as that was, I hope it's not the last, given all the crazy shit that's going down.
Lucky bastage.
I had tickets for Berkeley (where I saw them before).
Grrrrrrr
Now that's how people know about Rick Beato.
11:35 :- Epic moment for every Beato fan.
Beato is mandatory! I continually learn from that guy. But, Junkdrummer shouldn't sell himself short either.
I learned so much trying to cover Police songs in high school! Like you said, NO other drummer like him! You had to learn to fight every natural instinct for when to hit the crash, how to fill, when to stay away from the snare... Really forced you to expand your skillset, so great. I still find him to be the most intimidating drummer to cover, in the pop/RnR world. I mean, who else can drive a song so viscously with just the kick and high hat? Amazing talent. Great video!
I saw them in Ireland in 2008 too! Stuart was playing Wrapped Around Your Finger on the toms with his hands, proper bucket list concert. Love this channel bud 👌🏻🔥
one of my favorite Copeland quotes or theory was keeping a beat without primarily only using the snare, but using cymbals, bass drum or toms to keep the beat going.
I saw Stewart live during The Police reunion tour. Once was at Fenway Park and the other time was at MSG. What was cool about that tour is they had three big screens and one was dedicated to Stewart. I was very impressed. I always knew he was great/unique but to see him play live was another experience.
I saw this same concert tour in 2008 and had great seats. Best concert ever for me! Support your favorite band, these guys are so awesome!
FUCK YEAH! Stewart the mutha fuckin man Copland! So original. So talented. Such a musician. Put the beat on the 3 and got himself in the drums hall of fame! Added a delay pedal and and a noise gate and changed the landscape of music in the 80’s.
Really well said about how Stewart could play these crazy busy/intricate parts that still drove the music and didn’t distract like many people do. Gavin Harrison is really good at playing this way as well.
One of my fav ... IMO Stewart changed the face of rock drumming !!! 🥁
Went to the reunion show at the hockey arena in St. Paul, MN. Our seats were just OK, but I realized they deliberately hadn't sold the seats behind the stage so we went to the balcony behind and above Stewart. When the show started, the lights/equipment went up completely blocking Andy and Sting but I didn't care. I watched the whole show as if I was 40 feet tall standing over Stewart's shoulder. Never even got a glimpse of Andy or Sting, but I was more than satisfied to get a "private" drum lesson from Stewart.
spry indeed! they look and sound incredible. Love the arrangement changes in this version!
This song has my favorite clean tone riff in rock. It's just so sick!
For guitar players, Andy Summers is just as important as Stewart Copeland. I remember spending months trying to master the "Andy Summers Chord," which is basically a power chord with an added 9th. It's a bit of a stretch. He brought sophistication to punk, ska, new wave. Showed everyone how to elevate their guitar playing, or at least showed us that it's possible.
Stewart is the best.
I saw the police in Toronto when they did the reunion tour late 2000’s! Stewart was awesome! Always loved his playing! I have a bunch of drummers that are mandatory to learn their grooves, licks, phrasing etc when I’m teaching my students , Stewart is one of them! Thanks again for your awesome run down on Stewart and this Classic tune!
You're enthusiasm, knowledge and insight is much appreciated in these crazy times! Thank you junkdrummer.
I'm trying my best!
Stewart’s one of my favorites. He was really good! Neil Peart was also kinda influenced by Stewart’s drumming during the recording of Signals & Grace Under Presure. But, I heard that they broke up, because they didn’t get a long that we’ll, but idk. Cool video!
My ringtone in high school was The Police (Nokia brick phone version).
This song can have a lot of meanings especially with everything going on. 12Tone (music theorist channel) did a great breakdown of how the tones keep making you feel a certain way then with the next line make you feel something completely different.
One of my all time favorites 😍❤️❤️❤️
Great episode on the Police. Not a surprise on the Caribbian/raggae callout. This was when Bob Marley was big and ska was influential, taking a great style and making is something new and different. I really miss the music of the time, layered, complex, sophisticated. The elements of making music
classic and timeless.
I had to stop playing traditional grip because for some reason my left wrist couldn't take it. Every time I hear Stewart hit a rim shot I feel a phantom crack in my wrist. lol
Finally I see a good reaction or analyze the music of the Police ....
"If you don't like this band, just keep your shit in the case." Yes!
One of my favorites!
Son, that is the funniest g.d. meme ever! "You put that in a bottle and you got somethin' sweeter than yoohoo! ".
Stewart Copeland is from Alexandria, VA of all places.
Do Vitamin C by Can, their drummer Jaki Leibzeit is one of my favorites!
It’s cool to see you getting excited about the song Steve!
*that might be my favorite of your shirts
The bell-like sound of Andy's guitar was always a favorite. (I'm not a musician, so I dont know the technical term.)
Feedback sandwich. I love your point about not being married to the metronome. Feeling/groove > accuracy every time!
As someone who binges musical "react" channels, you are dominating the screen while holding sticks and have a drum in front of you [setting a certain anticipation] but only use them once to illustrate a rimshot. As a new viewer I kept expecting you to use those sticks, maybe break down some of the rythyms or something. It feels weird when people have instruments as props and not tools. If you aren't playing, you dont need them!
That said you have a really likable personality and a majestic beard, so thanks and good fortunes to you!
Watch more videos. I do more demonstrations in lots of my vids!! And if I remember correctly I did 3 demonstrations in this one.
@@JunkdrummerTV Certainly will do! Music is going to get me through this darned quarantine I know it :p All the best to you and yours!
Thats how i rim clicked just coming from punk to reggae it seemed normal
He's wearing a ghost in the machine shirt, not a synchronicity shirt.
I Swear I saw Stings eyes pop out of his head at the beginning, Sting had and has a physically hard time coping with Copelands loud playing. We don't mind do we. Stewart I saw in an interview has a fascinating collection of percussive instruments from around the world.
We don't mind at all
Thank you! I always like seeing anyone give props to Stewart Copeland, and The Police in general. I feel like they kind of fall into Blue Oyster Cult category of legendary and somehow under appreciated in my opinion especially both bands earlier works respectively. So since we're doing under serviced legends... Clyde Stubblefield or Bernard Purdie? I will keep asking. Lol.
Dig the shirt mate!
Stewart said his influence was more middle eastern than reggae. He lived in Beirut at some time when he was young.
Actually Stewart Copeland isnt Reggae influenced, what people assume is reggae rythms are actually the rythms he grew up hearing in the middle east. His father was a member of the CIA and thats where he was stationed. His father also raised him to play Jazz which he always hated, he wanted to play like Gunger Baker and Mitch Mitchell.
my favorite drummer! i push the tempo too, lol.... with him, there's something feral about it. almost feels like he's grappling with the groove.
It’s a as a ghost in the machine T-shirt, getting T-shirts right. Tim Alexander next ( primus )seeing them since Raggata And reunited tour @ MSG. Good stuff!!!
Way before my time. But I can appreciate good music. Great video👍
Instead of more cowbell it should be more Copeland. Him and Sting I can listen to Police all day long.
John Wright from NoMeansNo is a very loud traditional-grip player, as well.
Just like Bill Bruford one of my favorite things about Stewart Is that he never plays a song the same way twice
Great video as always! Would love to see you react to Bill Ward in The Wizard
Just starting to learn that song. That tom roll, with the guitar figure over top, sets the tone! No way you could get away with that now. I'd love to see a review of that, too.
FYI, Sting was 56 or 57 at this time. I saw the Police during this tour, and it the best concert I've ever seen. Sting is easily the best singer I've heard live. Bruce Dickinson is probably second.
you know you said "theres the stuff thats not in the original", but really hardly any of stewarts live playing is ever like the recordings. He describes playing the drums as an experience happening right in that moment every time, I think he always lets whatever he feels come out. You can actually hear it in the recordings too, verses will have super similar structures on the same song but he'll change small things here and there. Its not like you can learn one verse of a police song and say "now I know how to play the verses of that song."
Fantastic video Steve, Copeland is a legend. If you’re looking for ideas for what to put between the last Danny Carey and the next one, I reckon Joe Morello would make a great edition. Stay safe, stay healthy.
Very awesome man, love Copeland. I know everyone wants to do Danny Carry Pnuma but I'm still waiting on Gene Hoglan Skekis
Great video as always! Also want to remind you that Been A Long Time Cousin by Hella (Zach Hills old band) will blow your fucking mind
Stu Copeland and Neil Peart were best 80's drummers for sure. Huge influences on me at the time, alternately inspired and frustrated me in the days I thought I could one day be a great drummer. PS- did someone sneak in and steal your Lysol spray??
Stewart created the band and discovered Sting. He can wear any doggone T-shirt he wants to.
Another Stewart Copeland/Police standout live performance: ruclips.net/video/EEIUOq_HbqU/видео.html
Steve, dude! love your channel, seriously (and hilariously) inspiring stuff. I don't usually comment, but "a Jamaican drummer who forgot to get high, who has drunk ten cans of monster " is too good not to. Nice shirt BTW - Bigups from SW England #makedrumsmusicalagain.
That's a Ghost in the Machine T-shirt; not a Synchronicity T-shirt :-)
It's just a precision that's what they were like until like 58 when they changed to what they are still now!
I want to hear a professional's opinion on Nyango Star's drumming
If you are a drummer or sound engineer which I am , both do yourself a favour and watch a interview with Michael beinhorn ever drummer and band you love he has produced, most amazing producer for all instruments, but amazing with drums
Try a video of Stewart from 1983 sky you should get that rushing that your talking about
The shirt is a Ghost in the Machine shirt, not Synchronicity.
The only way to sound more like Stewart Copeland is to hire Stewart Copeland for the session! 💯
Hi! Please analyse/review "Eloy Casagrande" of Sepultura! Cheers from Argentina!
Black Crowes? Steve Gorman is a groove-master! Enjoying the channel ✌️
One of my fav players of all. I have stole the tom add
They would still be playing together if it wasn't for Stewart's personaliy disorder. Don't get me wrong, he's still my favorite drummer.
Yeah!!! One of my fav drummers. Still waiting to see a Jimmy Chamberlin review.
Then you're gonna love Thursday
@@JunkdrummerTV oof! 🔥🔥🔥 excited! 🙌
Damn, what a great shirt
you should do Alex Bent from trivium
Shout out to the Lysol wipes cameo.
Would love to see you react to his work with Oysterhead.
Stewart Copeland never seems to age...such a great drummer.
Steve, quick question? What software do you use for sharing your screen for these videos? Cheers!
OBS
Junkdrummer TV cheers. That’s also the software I’m experimenting with. Keep up the quality content 🍻
Not enough Copeland reactions. Thanks
How about Alan Cassidy from The Black Dahlia Murder?
Do some Manu Katche, or Omar Hakim!
Oh man I love them both. Omar especially.
Do Larry Mullen Jr. Very underrated drummer.
Hey man I'm brand new to your channel so correct me if you have already but you should absolutely take a look at some Gojira - The Art of Dying and Backbone are two monstrous songs on drums
Stick around!!
Great video! Please do the newly released drum cam of Danny Carey/Pneuma by Vic Firth
Haha. Are you trolling me? Did you watch the video
@@JunkdrummerTV Ignore him, he's just a troll. Besides, instead of talking to him you could do a look at that Danny Carey video.
@@JunkdrummerTV you caught me in a "polite lie"--as a subscriber, I just presumed this would be a great video like the rest!
Yes sir thank you now one last thing how rad is Jake Beard I mean I'm no drummer but dang hes funky .no?
I also love Levon
Hey man, love your videos.(Maybe an Alex Van Halen review in the future? 🤔)
ghost in the machine, not synchronicity ;))
Thomas pridgen w/ the mars volta - "goliath" por favor?
Can you react to cobus please? You can do any song
Great analysis- I think he’s playing to a click hence isn’t rushing!?
Watch Yoyoka Murder by Numbers!😯
mario duplantier the heaviest matter of the universe!!!
Do Sean Kinney big guy please ..................I always tell my band if Bonham doesn't play in time why should I ... Lol
That's great quote. Sean is coming up.
Have you seen Danny Carey's drum cam of Pneuma live? if not please do it!
Nice troll sir
@@JunkdrummerTV Did not mean to troll but I'll take the Nice LOL...The chl is Nice btw!!
You saw the meme right? Haha
Christopher Powell of Man Man would be swell.
Also, sting in the thumbnail🙄

I see the message on your bottle, and I see what you did there. :p
You should do a video on this song of the police ruclips.net/video/PuFAYAEgKMA/видео.html. Stewart was in some type of mood in this video 😂
