As a young jazz drummer, I cannot express how great these podcasts are. The five of you, along with each guest you bring on, are all living legends. There is so much knowledge to be gained from you cats, and I hope more drummers find and enjoy these chats. Great stories, tips, lessons, the whole thing. Keep doin what you're doin guys. Peace n love from Chicago
Just found this channel but I know and love all of you guys and your music! I am primarily a bass player but I own two kits Sonor and Ludwig so go figure! Love drums and drummers!
I'll never forget the first time i heard Jack D! On miroslav vitous album "infinite search" first track "freedom jazz dance" (still the best version, imo) it literally stopped me in my steps, i listened intently, jaw dropped, got to the end, and asked my brother, "who is that drummer!?" Flipped it over, read the name, and repeated the track countless times. Definitely a top 5 album. Life has never been the same since! That you jack!!!
Drum legends. 7:48 - That is true. Any band is only as good as its drummer. 41:58 - Agree, 'Everybody Digs Bill Evans' is an amazing record, Sam Jones on bass and Philly Joe on drums; a stellar repertoire and amazing Trio chemistry. Their versions of 'Minority', 'Night And Day', 'Tenderly' and 'Oleo' are smoking and on tunes like 'Peace Piece' and 'Some Other Time', you hear the seeds of Miles' 'Flamenco Sketches.' 45:52 - That track Jack is referring to is called 'What I Say', that recording originally came out on 'Live Evil', it's a killer modern groove, Jack and Mike Henderson, they do these kicks that sound almost like Jungle/Drum N Bass/Break Beat 30 years ahead of its time, it's my favorite track, it's got awesome solos by Keith, Miles and Gary Bartz. And you can hear that leading to 'On The Corner' two years later.
Another incredible interview with an amazing musician who has touched all of us. You guys are all so interesting and knowledgeable with an obvious desire to lift all of us up. Thanx so much for these episodes, I'm always feeling better after the interviews!
Man, one of the best stick people ever (they are all great tho..). Merv Kennedy, my drum teacher for 7 years taught a strong classic jazz foundation. What a great path he laid for me when each one of you in your own way opened up a new world of beats, pocket and rythm. You guys opened up the E ticket Disneyland ride of drumming for me. Sadly, everyone wanted a rock drummer! I apparently was and am "too jazzy", to this day. F#ck em! Now I play for myself, which is more fun than playing 4 time while am forced to sit thru another "lead guitar" try to copy a riff and turn it into 32 bars. Thank you!
Man, thanks for all of this! Each of you are a treasure and have changed the musical soundscape forever. What a perfect collection of drummers for a conversation.
I would like to thank all of you gentlemen for creating great music for all of us. The music that you guys created helped mold us and made our lives so much fun listening to your music, seeing you in concert and even getting to meet some of you.
I love this show! I want to add three things things: 1) "Forest Flower" was recorded in 1966 and it was a gateway drug into jazz for a lot of young musicians, three years before "Bitches Brew". I'm not ranking them, just saying that is a really important record, and Jack played amazing. 2) I saw the Miles band at the Berkeley Jazz Festival when Jack played piano, Chick played drums, and Keith Jarrett played soprano - just for a few minutes with the lights down, before Miles came out and everyone scurried to their "correct" instrument. 3) I saw one of the Special Edition bands at Keystone. I think it was Jack, Lester Bowie, Scofield and Ron McClure. Incredible. The last song was really loud (in a cool way) with Jack playing an off beat funk pattern on a big china cymbal. The crowd was going nuts, and Jack came back and did an encore, playing Denny Zeitlin's ballad "Quiet Now" as a solo piano piece. He got quieter and quieter and then stopped. The juxatposition of the loudest and softest music I ever heard at Keystone had a big effect on me.
Came here via a few MC interviews I checked out earlier. Had no idea about this Pod. Just liked and subbed, which I rarely do. This is great, thanks to you all and your guests.
This is amazing: Education, biography, music lessons, natural laws, psychology, kindness, joyful humor, heroes, great questions bubbling from a round table, insightful discussion, history. This is a great contribution to world culture. Bravo! More!❤️🌹🥰🙏🏼🦅🌞
As always what a great episode... One thing I love about these 'shows' is that it's a bit like hanging with all of you guys and just quietly listening in.... listen and learn.
After Christian Vander (Magma got me into jazz and drums !) Jack is probably the most influential to me (and he’s my favorite of all time probably) and this video (podcast?) was super insightful and fun to listen to, props!! Sending good vibes
@michaelshrieve5571 Wow! I can't believe you responded! Thank you, I was selfishly half-joking but would absolutely love more! You are all living legends and are doing such an important service by documenting these stories. Thank you. Thank you!
I still have photos I took from the Jack DeJohnette Parallel Realities 1990 in London. With Dave Holland, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock. Doesn't get better than that.
All of the episodes Ive seen so far are the best interview/discussions Ive ever heard. So informative! Not mention all of the interviewers and the guests are my biggest music heroes from childhood to today. Any chance on getting Roy, Vinnie, Dave W. or Omar??
Thank you for your kind words. All of those suggestions sound great. Just between you and me, if we were to set up a subscription service, what do you think would be a fair monthly price, or a price for each interview?
A question to consider for the future… how has the progressive change in equipment changed your approach to playing? For example, Michael played Impakt electronic drums in the early days of electronics (Automatic Man). Billy Cobham tried acrylic drums (Fibes) with Mahavishnu Orchestra and solo work - acrylic drums are much more resonant than wooden shells. This is just an example.
Mitch Mitchell is one of my top most Inspiration. As a drummer. Then comes Mike Clarks Funk feel.. And also a bit of crazy Ginger Baker is inside of me.. Do you guys ever played with Gabor Szabo? Love this episode. I hope you read this. Hare Krishna 🙏✌️
Just wondering, how did the Tribute to Miles Davis, come about? Personel: Carlos & Cindy Santana, Vernon Reid Living Colour, Matthew Garrison, Luisito Quintero, among other great performers.
There's a number of people, most of them, not drummers...Who say they dislike Buddy Miles' performances. Most of this didn't, or ceased to apply when he played with Carlos...
it´s "Fantasy in D", from Freddy Hubbard´s record. "First Light" year 1971, one of those CTI records mentioned in the conversation, with Jack DeJohnette on drums!!!
Miles kept you on your toes he loved doing that yes Mitch was a jazz drummer at heart kind of like Watts but more aggressive like Clark was the fucky side of jazz just Epic

How is it possible that Lenny White looks younger now than he did in the 70's? Amazing interview. Thanks for doing this.
Great Stuff, guys! 🥁
This is such a treat, hearing these cats talk - thank you so much.

Um mestre de sutil talento e percepção
Great, great and maybe the best episode so far ❤

Thanks for posting
Without a doubt the greatest shows on youtube: "Stick People".
This is sooooooo great! Priceless.
Fantastic! Thanks!
Cosmic energy morphed in music!
As always what a great episode... One thing I love about these 'shows' is that it's a bit like hanging with all of you guys and just quietly listening in.... listen and learn.
Wonderful stuff. Such incredible talent on this podcast. You have all had a huge impact on so many of us who followed in your footsteps. Thank you!
I grew up listening to all of you, and this was such a pleasure to hear and see. Thank you all for a lifetime of great music and development! ❤
I attended some workshops with jack at Creative Music Studio in the 80s...His wisdom was just amazing....
This is incredible!!!!!
After Christian Vander (Magma got me into jazz and drums !) Jack is probably the most influential to me (and he’s my favorite of all time probably) and this video (podcast?) was super insightful and fun to listen to, props!! Sending good vibes
Really nice. Thanks.
Quite possibly the track is: "What I Say"...with Jack & Miles...it is. Ndugu took the beat over, on later gigs, with Don Alias & James Mtume.
I didn’t know this was happening… what a bless… thank you
Thank you❤
AWESOME!!!!!
This is amazing! Can we please get 5 more hours of this, please?
Perhaps an hour more. I'll talk to our Producer.

Terrific!
I still have photos I took from the Jack DeJohnette Parallel Realities 1990 in London. With Dave Holland, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock. Doesn't get better than that.
Loved Mike referencing Jacks Climax on McLean’s Jacknife album. Jack, Jackie and Lee Morgan are amazing on that cut!

Just wondering. Who are your favorite percussionists & congueros?
please get Snap Crackle on this... Please.
Just wondering, how did the Tribute to Miles Davis, come about? Personel: Carlos & Cindy Santana, Vernon Reid Living Colour, Matthew Garrison, Luisito Quintero, among other great performers.
What a rush!!
There's a number of people, most of them, not drummers...Who say they dislike Buddy Miles' performances. Most of this didn't, or ceased to apply when he played with Carlos...
I’d like to ask Mike about his time with Brand X, and Michael about playing with Stomu Yamashta.
lenny do you still have your blue gretch
set from the 70s ?
This is the best
❤❤❤❤
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I remember Greg's amazing drum solo on a live performance of Boogie Woogie Waltz in the early 70's thanks to a bootleg recording.
Greg Errico's backdrop wall......"Win big Prizes and a Chickin "
Do Roy Haynes
What’s the name of the opening tune?
it´s "Fantasy in D", from Freddy Hubbard´s record. "First Light" year 1971, one of those CTI records mentioned in the conversation, with Jack DeJohnette on drums!!!
@@cacho100 I can always count on fine folks to know answers to questions I need answering. Thank you. I will look that up now.
I appreciate Jack giving props to Mitch Mitchell, though, I'm more of a Buddy Miles guy. Fortunately, we have both with Jimi Hendrix.
"What I Say" at 45:45
♡Michael Shrieve♡
Miles kept you on your toes he loved doing that yes Mitch was a jazz drummer at heart kind of like Watts but more aggressive like Clark was the fucky side of jazz just Epic
