  • I had the honor of sitting down with the long running drummer for the Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, who is also the author of the Art of Bop Drumming, Beyond Bop Drumming, Master Drummer, and the Drummers Workshop.

    Interview becomes more compelling around 16 minutes in for the layman learner... Very Good!

    Hey, always a pleasure to hear Master Riley talk. A correction : it is Karim Ziad from Algeria.

    My apologies... To clarify, a bit flabby & boring content early in, but ripens quite nicely. John Riley is an American Treasure! Love his teaching & wonderful career!

      Criticism is important to grow the artform, but maybe your comment is an indication that you need to seek out these American Treasures in person--and remind your students (if you are a teacher) to do the same. John Riley is accurate about the importance of physicality in learning--and that also applies to the physicality of mentorship and learning, even in the age of AI and the internet. I am old enough to remember cassette tapes and how they would melt in the tape deck if you played them too much ;)

    To each his own. Both cd’s and cassettes sound better than anything from your phone.

    Thank you for putting this together! John Riley's books have been incredibly helpful too me, and not in the least because they reference so much fantastic music. I'll go listen to Brasileiro now.

    Criticism you say? Perseverance, courage, grit & failure leads us to greatness... Maybe check out Angela Lee Duckworth Ted Talk, Grit: the power of passion & perseverance... it's all grit & grind to be the best at anything... “Luck Is What Happens When Preparation Meets Opportunity"... which we can aptly call "HARD WORK". Thankfully, I was born in the late 1960's. Had the amazing opportunity to study with the late great, Mr. Dom Famularo... Another "American Treasure".

    NIce ideas in here. John suggests a 5-group pattern repeated 3 times - that could be started on the 2nd 16th to have the pattern end with a final quarter note on the 1.

    Buddy Rich never practiced, he just played.

      That's it! Check out the full album, it's on spotify and I'm sure every where else. There's a few tracks that sound like a really really groovy drumline...it's addictive!
