Dude, you rock. I can hear the changes between the 2 versions you put up, but both sound great. I gotta learn this song on drums for a class I am taking. Videos like these and others posted up by good people like you, make a huge difference for new players trying to learn. Thank you.
Hey man, thanks. That's exactly why I post videos of Jim's playing - I've been studying his playing for around 12 years now. In a way, I feel like he's been my instructor. I heard an isolated track from this song, and realized that he's not playing sixteens on the hi-hat...he dubbed in Congas and a shaker sound of some kind to fill out the sound, and his groove on the kit goes all the way to the center of the earth. Good luck with your class, and we will be studying the master together! BTW, I was looking at a cheat sheet for this track - I've forgotten how to read, so I did my own shorthand for the fills.
