![Stewart Copeland - drumtalk [episode 36]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/V1L4AyXXuic/mqdefault.jpg)
Stewart needs his own radio show/podcast. Great radio voice, great energy, interesting and funny as hell. DO IT STEW.
Check out his page, ruclips.net/video/S2N4gXViE1U/видео.html he does a lot of improv jamming at his house with a bunch of different people,everyone from Snoop Dog to Neil Peart
@@markyncole thanks for that.
Was just about to comment something to that effect. Very affable.
He is like a likeable Dave Letterman
@@bradmodd7856 You don't like Dave Letterman because he's opinionated. Smart, funny, halfway-decent dude!
Stewart is a great example of one's personality coming out in their playing.
Sharp, energetic, clever, interesting. His forward moving feel is extremely exciting to hear.
Stewart is in amazing shape for 65. He could pass for early 50s easily. What a great damn drummer.
Stewart is in amazing shape for 65. He could almost pass for 64!
That's what money does sometimes..if you use it right.
He has an almost youthful demeanor. He did when he was in The Police in the early years and he's kept it into his 60s which is great.
He would If he had dyed hair
he sure was, wasn't he! damn!!
Stewart Copeland taught me how to play a couple of Kinks songs on guitar and gave me a Gene Krupa drum method book. We were best friends at the American school in London. We had a great time doing all kinds of stuff. Love you Stuart!
Alan Webb Knowing him personally, why do you spell his name two different ways?
Did you ever meet his CIA Dad and his MI6 mother? Did you ever discuss the hijinks that Miles Copeland got up to in Lebanon and Iran?
Thats awesome dude 👍
What an adventure and a privilege wow !
Stewart is just great, he was always my favorite member of The Police.
He was a real wild man. Played in a cage near lions. Nuts.
Steve Jones's show is a breathe of fresh air.....Great show.....
I put Copeland up there with Bonham, Peart, Moon, Porcaro, etc. A lot going between 2 hands and 2 feet doing different time signatures and poly rhythmics
Up there? Stewart Copeland single handedly (or I guess double handedly really) inspired Neal Peart to give up his mustache and long hair professor look and grow a mullet, lose interest in composing insanely complex drum pieces nearly impossible to play live and start grooving on some world rhythms, and ultimately bring rush back down from the obscure aethers of fantasy prog (a place where they call songs “movements”) to plant their feet solidly on the ground and start playing rock and fucking roll again. Stewart Copeland was the best drummer in all of rock, holding that title long after the police broke up until a band called tool released an album called lateralus...at which point the crown was passed to Danny Carey
@@jahread3322 best drummer ever is always too subjective to call. Everyone has differing opinions on who’s the best. Danny Carey is definitely up in the pantheons of the best though but there’s other guys around who are fantastic as well like Gavin Harrison.
I put him above all you mention, except Picarro.
@@jahread3322 Copeland is great but Peart outgrew him and will always be the best. Mustache and long hair aside.
@@ViciousAlienKlown this is true...Neil peart is was and always will be the professor.
Stewart Copeland makes any subject sound interesting. Definitely a class act. Highly intellectual , yet down to Earth. He's a world class rock star yet has not let it get to his head. Loved this interview.
I love that Jonesy uses the interviews as his own therapy sessions, talk about his childhood, tastes of when he was a kid, stole... He speaks a lot about himself but in a great way because he is not disruptive and let his guest talk... But he always has his moments of therapy in almost every interview. LOL!
When two genuine blokes meet up the conversation simply must be good. This one is excellent!
I’ve always wanted to meet Stewart Copeland. Insane musician.
This guy should play in Rush , he is too humble to fill in for Neil in Rush.But his Style is different, his Police drumming .Love his "Animal Logic" stuff too.
These Steve Jones interviews are great ! So ordinary and unpretentious, just interesting people having interesting chats about allsorts of stuff. I will always appreciate Stewart Copeland's musical skill. Thank you Mr Copeland for "The Equalizer" theme !
Mike Donovan - he's awesome isn't he? I thoroughly recommend his book 'Lonely Boy'.
Thanks, I'll have a look at that book. :)
He's had a few utter pretentious moron's on though. The worst I found was Courtney from Dandy Warhols. I found Johnny Ramone's wife pretty awful. I suppose it's personal preferences though?
LOVE Steve Jones & his power of intelligent interviews, not to be overlooked.
So many thought Sting was the intellectual, Copeland is.
C Synch seems they’re all pretty smart blokes. Their music shows it. A trio of dumbasses couldn’t have made that sound....
He was also the founder, the youngest, and the only American.
Frank Howard, Right on.
andy was the real brains, of the group, never needed, thanks to sting's smart-assed-lyricism, wow!
if i had neva seen a picture or photo of sting and the boyz, that might have been betta, bote:
-- bote , i would fink dey was block boyz, mon! weSPECT!!
one of the best drummers to ever do it; top 10 of all time easily
Stewart Copeland inspired me to play the drums 40 years ago.
veromikes me too, along with Phil Collins & Keith Moon. When I play I can hear all 3 come through my drumming-kind of a weird synthesis.
Stewart should do a spoken word tour around the world. Sold out shows galore.
This is one of the best, and most entertaining interviews I've seen in a while.
Jonesy's Jukebox is damn great. Always relaxed, informative interviews with the best guests. Really like it. Cheers from Cleveland Jonesy!
one of the best drummers ever...
"Mickey Dolenz went into another character...and it wasn't good".....LOL ..I don't know why I found that hilarious. I think it's the way Jonesy said it.
Phil Granito Yes - his interviews are much better now. Jones has recently had some healthy scare. He just says it as it is, I’m guessing he feels he’s nothing to lose.
Stewart was he childhood hero. I had his pictures from Modern Drummer and other magazines all over my wall.
I’m now 53 and have been a pro touring drummer all my adult life. It was all because of this guy. Thanks Stewart.
Sounds like he has a better understanding of when Sting went thru as the main writer of the band. It's tough but you don't want to worry about diplomacy too much when you have to select the best song. Having said THAT, Stewart and Andy are masters at what they do and I'm forever grateful for their contribution to realizing Sting's songs. Stewart and Andy have some cool, funny songs as well.
Stewart was the heartbeat of the police , without him no band , listen to his Klark Kent solo stuff , really great songs that could easily fit into early police repertoire
Stewart Copeland: the Ray Manzarek of drumming.
nailed it
Now thats funny...
....Absolutely!!!
i can see that lol
DISCOGOTHTHEJAZZFAN So true.
Maybe Jonesy's best interview yet. Thoroughly enjoyable. Stewart almost seems like an American version of a Monty Python troupe member.
so Terry Gilliam then? :)
So, yeah...he's basically TG.
Loved watching this. Two legends right here! 💜
Steve Jones, the man who broke the obscenity barrier in the Seventies, scared to say shit on US radio in 2017. The irony-ometer just broke.
Eric Gudmunsen
Ha ha never thought of that. Well spotted, and the irony is hilarious.
What a fuckin' rotter!
Well all get old
Eric Gudmunsen Give Steve a couple of free bottles of Blue Nun if you want to hear him cursing.
wildcatter63 John did that to fund PIL. There was a method to what you consider to be John’s madness. He still has his integrity.
Great Interview! They have great chemistry.
As a german this is funny to watch, when they talk about "Ausfahrt" and "scheiße" :D
I drove in Germany for the first time a few months ago - and was convinced I was driving around an enormous town call "Ausfahrt" as I saw so many signs - had a great time btw in Cologne!
RighteousBrother hahaha
Could listen to Copeland for ages!!! What a guy! …after Jonesy of course !!!
Stewart was always the best and coolest of the band The Police, it's great to see him looking so well. He is a very entertaining story teller.Actually back in the day he used to play the drums whilst standing and he also released solo records under the name Klark Kent (Dont care was a decent tune)
Stewart Copeland sounds and looks like Ray Manzareck of The Doors - almost same personality as well!
(17:49) love the honesty Jonesy!
Oh man, that was funny. Stew C has a great grasp of British humour and Jonesy plays the sidekick really well ... he remembers Wimpy Burger!
I could listen to Stewart all day good job Jonesy
The drummer for The Dave Clark Five was Clem Cattini, I saw Stewart Copland walking along Murray Street Perth Western Australia in the 80s
Didn't really expect to like this. Loved it!
I saw Roky Erickson live and he had a back drop of 40s and 50s crash test films. To psychedelic music. Wonderful.
Stewart Copeland is my favorite drummer of all time. I even bought his Klark Kent albums (actually they are quite good) anyway he's very funny and great interview (very cool.he mentioned the Wrecking Crew, that's a very 'deep' subject ...one of the best guests ever on here
I had that first Klark Kent album on cassette and played it so much that the tape ribbon wore out!! Great stuff.
Mat Mclean Underrated and it's definitely cool
Rick Jones i remember the Klark Kent days, the post punk pre new wave days of music!!!!
His dad was fairly high up in the CIA
So?
Stewart is correct about Food in London now there's a huge variety now.
Was never a Sex Pistols fan, but I stumbled upon this and had to immediately subscribe. Now I'm not going to get any work done going back through past episodes.
Mike Tyson's Hotboxin' is another great podcast if you are interested!♥
Wonderful human beings.GOD bless them.
What an unexpectedly captivating interview. Stewart is pretty cool.
6.16 Really good question! Stwart Copeland, Amazing!
A great guitarist with a great drummer, love Jones and Stew.
Stewart Copeland, LEGEND!!! xx SF
I really enjoyed his answer when asked if band leader or each person having autonomy over their part was best. When he said it could work if each member was on the same page but how it’s funny to him that the police were all on the same page but ultimately couldn’t work as equals is revealing. When talented musicians learn how to play and write as band together, developing these skills (and growing as players in the process) it’s more likely that they succeed and stay together longer, and prefer collaborating with each other over anyone else. When talented musicians who have already developed their understanding of theory, composing and ability to play apart from each other, come together...they rarely succeed or last very long creating collaborative art. The reason i think is because advanced musicians have their own understanding of music and their isn’t a lot they can teach each other nor will playing with each other lead to much if any major growth in their ability to play. Since they haven’t learned together, they don’t share a playing style, a composing method or even an approach to music...they will have the academic knowledge and the technical language to allow a shared understanding of music as a system...but that only facilitated communication in terms of music. To truly collaborate, they either have to argue and win to convince the others to share in a vision, or they have to compromise their own vision to share a vision, or they have to be willing to have no vision of their own instead choosing to serve another members vision. I think what makes the police so amazing is that they were all professional musicians, whose understanding of theory was as advanced as their ability to play, that managed to come together and collaboratively create a style and sound wholly unique to them. The police was the result of three musicians visions coming together to create one sound that was a true original creation. They couldn’t have done this if they were all compromising their individual visions to find common ground nor could they have done this if one member took full control and the other two gave up their visions and decided to become a backing band for the emergent band leader. The only way they could do what they did was to fight like brothers until they couldn’t take it anymore: and thank god they did!
He's carrying the host. ♡
Stewart Copeland is hilarious!
another great interview
Wow! Stewart Copeland has 7 kids and 3 grandkids! He's done all of that touring and he's super intelligent, oh and one of the best drummers in the world! He's a man's man!
I love Stewart SO much 💗💗
One of the very best drummers that has ever graced a staged.....I saw him play at NAMM for TAMA....I yelled out "Play Roxanne"...I was just joking...He stood up looked at me , and shook his head....The audience roared in laughter.....Sorry Stewart , for the knucklehead request ......
I’m sure he secretly loved it
Steward's song "The Other Way of Stopping" is such a brilliant little tune, once you start playing it it's like it takes over you in a kind of mantra, replaying it endlessly, I wonder if that was intentional and the reason for having that name
Such a great talk, Steward is smart and entertaining at the best !
That "Brick Top" comment is priceless!!!! Love ya Jonesy!
Loved the interview...good banter. Stewart Copeland 's a funny dude.
Stewart is just a fab guy - Intelligent educated funny positive - what a shame Sting couldn't handle that
I love This interview.
If you could get Stewart Copeland and Jeff Goldblum in the same band, the two of them would have a remarkable conversation where they jumped from idea to idea having said only the beginning of each before having to abandon it to articulate the beginning of the next.
This needs to happen before the nuclear bomb drops
Two absolute fucking legends in one small room.
Two big influences for me awesome
Listening to Stewart Copeland talk I get the sense that it would be pretty kick-ass to hang out with him.
So many untold music histories here
i invented the live recording via cassette! and it was more like about 1973, jack~ i was eight yrs old and i'll never forget it! yup, yup, 'goodbye yellow-brick-road' was big at the time, it's still one of the most epic tracks ever etch'd onto vinyl or tape, or these modern marvels, the computer-brains!
respect the epic tracks! they're always goin' somewhere, and they're not goin' anywhere!
Copeland recovers well after putting his foot in it re Asperger's spectrum and guitarist. Love both these guys.
"I must be an ass burger". Er...that's not how you say it, Jonesy.
Stewart Copeland. The golden voice of radio!
Copeland’s understated and deadpan brand of intellectual humor is the best. His ability to extemporize rivals that of any great trial lawyer. Mind chops….
Could listen to Stewie forever, and that look at 28:15 "...turns out that jazz is the mother of everything!". Ha! Priceless.
Eternal honor and glory to the Maestro Drummer.
Ole Stewie is one smart musician!!!! Love his drumming.. He really plays some unique stuff in oysterhead
This is a great interview.....,
Great guest, never heard of him, obviously heard of the Police though. Sound fella.
Ha ha Ive just played in Germany . “ Ausfaut “ funny indeed . I wasn’t the Police’s no 1 fan but his drumming approach then & now is fantastic.
Damn it … this was super interesting!!
Hell yeah, my man Stewart!
I am fairly positive I saw Stewart driving around Hollywood in a minivan back when I lived there about 5-6 years ago. xD
The great thing about Wimpys were that they cooked the burger and the onions on a hot plate right at the counter under your nose. The smell was heavenly
Stewart...what a gem.
That drum part he was talking about was A saucerful of secrets
Best show on the radio ever !!
Very entertaining interview-Stewart reveals that he asked Nick Mason if his drumming part on Ummagumma (it's actually Saucerful of secrets -the track) (from 22mins in to the interview) was live or a loop-it was a drum loop. I always wondered that! He seems to think Pink Floyd got there first by using a drum loop on a recording but The Beatles (who else) used a drum loop all the way through Tomorrow Never Knows.
Tmorrown Never Knows 1966 that's it
keyboard!!!! behave!!!!!
What a good Jones program! ...
Stewart is one of the best drummers in the history of music, I liked the interview.
I follow you from Argentina and I was with you when you came with Fantasy 7.
I'd like you to interview Peter Criss.
Regards!!!....
yes...he was the closest thing we've got to a 'jimi hendrix of drums' , but never properly appreciated, and never given enough 'space' during the most magical times, to take the art further 'out' so t'speak...then again, it's a fine line between kickassed drumming, and overindulgent racket! drums are always too loud, --recorded drums are the best, because then the volume can be made however it needs to be, for the given piece of music... where's the next jimi hendrix, where's the next beatles, right? to me, xtc are still the modern beatles... what am i missin'?
Stewart is truly one of the best. Just amazing. Got into him on the Zenyatta Modata tour with Iggy Pop years ago. He was just nuts and so much fun to watch.
Terry Riley was one of the first to used tape loops, and so very effectively.
Stewart is the best. Great drummer too.
Stewart Copeland: Who knew he had so much to say?! He's like "Nobody asked me!" Except Jonesy. God love Jonesy!
Steve Jones says Bo-No but it's Bon-O. LOL ...
I was at that show too but didn't know these two guys were there. I did see actor Jay Mohr with his young son on his shoulder walking through the Turnstile to enter the Rose Bowl.
I love the understated pisstake of U2 from Stewart. "You put some big images on there and it's gonna rock!"
Stewart got his start on drums from Wishbone Ash (Steve Upton). His brother managed the band and they practiced in his house before they got huge. Stewart lived there and the rest is history. Wishbone Ash!!
I thought Stuart Copland started out with Curved Air?
I just realize that this is new, because I just watched TGT series#2 ep#8.
The Byrds didn’t play on Mr Tambourine Man (that is, apart from Jim / Roger McGuinn), but it was them all the way after that.
The Great American Disaster burger joint was actually on Fulham Road not Kings Road as far as I remember.And there was one in Beauchamp Place in Knightsbridge near Harrods........They were quite expensive though so a rare childhood treat reserved for my 1960s-70s childhood birthday parties only.
Hi Stewart, the Beatles actually did several physical tape loops on Tomorrow Never Knows on Revolver, including the first drum loop, and the first reverse loop. What sounds like seagulls on that song is really Paul and John laughing on a loop played backwards. As a fellow composer, I thought you’d want to know
Two old punks meeting again! Great interview, so excited to learn he's going to be on Grand Tour with Nick Mason, that's the perfect combination!
lptomtom The Police were never punk........they were far too competent on their instruments.
No more competent on instruments than The Clash or The Ruts
dave h Are you having a laugh?? I’m guessing you’ve never played an instrument in your life.
@@SuperEdge67 I'm a guitar player and could name loads of Punk musicians just as competent as the three in the police
dave h I’m a guitarist and occasional drummer and I doubt you could name any. Stewart Copeland is ranked by Rolling Stone Magazine as the 10th greatest drummer is history. His drum patterns are some of the most complex in rock music and far more than anything in punk. Summers is a virtuoso whose real love is jazz and has put out many instrumental records. Whilst I like some punk music .........it is simple. Virtually any punk track I could think of could be played by an intermediate level player.
Those guys deserve a beer.
Great drummer & producer.
Greatest radio show ever
This was alright- liked to have heard a bit more about late 70's London days from the both of them.
What a guy.
If in an interview the interviewer says... " What are you doin' ere.."? I am listening to that interview.
I love how Stewart is always beating up on the other members of a band.. The drummer is always sacred though.
Rumble Fish - what a soundtrack for atmosphere.
