Great job Young Man! Fantastic! Keep up the wonderful work. It’s all about striving to be our best. Drumming is a lifelong pursuit A lifelong work in progress and we all want to continue to better ourselves and our music.
Saw this and your 'Out in the Open' video. Gotta say, really awesome stuff! I've only been drumming for about four years and have just started to take more of a look at jazz drumming. Your videos have been really helpful for that indeed, so thank you for uploading and keep up the good work!
Hey Man, amazing job on the cover. I'm aware this is 6 years old, but how did you manage to get the track as an mp3/wav to record yourself? Did it come with an online version of the book or were you able to purchase the tracks seperately from the book?
Hey Luke, I go over time keeping techniques (playing to click and Benny Greb's gap click). Also fluidity of groove. I practice sight reading and playing along to big band charts. I go over recording techniques (volume control between snare, kick and hats etc). Also I practice brushes a lot (playing along to Bill Evans, Miles Davis etc). And practicing the charts I've got to play for shows I've got coming up, plus practising my bands set for tours I've got coming up!
+Joel Barford Drums Hey Joel. That's awesome. Where do you get your charts from? Is there any reading material you could recommend to help with chart reading?
Hello this is josh to day I just met you at school I think you are the best drumer in the world, continue being a grate inspirational drumer love to meat you again ps. I'm that kid with the sprayed drum sticks and who had a go on your nice kit thanks your awesome
My man. That's some superb playing. May I ask: Is that dream dark matter flat ride? sounds terrific, especially when paired with that swish knocker. solid choice for that tune.
Jayne Bronson Dude drum fills are always going to be that way, you can't call him out on that, his fills are superb but could a bit work, its not terrible.
Jayne Bronson Thanks for your comment! (No sarcasm intended) his was a very long time ago when I wasn't even into jazz that much and is now something I play constantly and am earning a living from it! I completely agree with that you said, my playing and way of thinking has completely changed! Will be update this channel with some sort of new content soon!
+Joel Barford Drums Mateeee, how did you improve so much? I'm working on John Riley's book but I would love you to suggest something to improve my mindset
This is just awesome. You really knew the song, matching the comping hits and melodic rhythms. So good!
There's so much to be learned from this.
Excellent thank you for sharing
Amazing playing and cymbal choice.
Nicely done. My hat is off to you
Nicely done. I have an A Zildjian 18" swish like that I bought in college. I'm 66 and it's still in my Jazz set up. Aaaaahhhhh...

which crash is that? it sounds great even when played like a ride
This is sick dude! What sticks?
My man. That's some superb playing. May I ask: Is that dream dark matter flat ride? sounds terrific, especially when paired with that swish knocker. solid choice for that tune.
Its in the caption
That swish cymbal sounds amazing ? Is it vintage ?
Swinging.
Hi! I want to ask you about transcription for this music!? Do you have? Please
Is that a K ride?
Alonzo Lopez a dream dark matter flat earth ride. Looks like a 22.
Which Swish is that?
That ride looks ugly but sounds beautiful.
Sloppy comping and your feel is stiff
Tell the good things and then criticize thats how you do it ! Your comment is mean and it's not going to help anyone
Jayne Bronson Dude drum fills are always going to be that way, you can't call him out on that, his fills are superb but could a bit work, its not terrible.
Jayne Bronson That's because he sped up the video.
