I could mouth a beat to Buddy Rich and interject when it was outside of my exact direction. It doesn’t mean Buddy sucks or Dave sucks. All I see in this short clip is one musician trying to interpret another musicians instructions. Everyone’s groove is different. It’s a skill professionals develop to deliver requirements to another’s vision. Often the vision of the writer of the check in the end.
Yes he is human! We all are. I was at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame years ago, during a John Lennon exhibit. They had hand-written song drafts on display. As a song-writer, I was amazed to see he used a pen, just like me! He scratched out wrong chords and lyrics, just like me! I was in Cuba about 20 years ago, and I was blown away by some of the amazing drummers I saw. They could *all* played Songo and Mozambique and all of the crazy four-limb Latin independence stuff... Then I heard several of them try to swing or play a straight backbeat and I couldn’t believe how bad they sounded... We are all human and we all start at the same place (the beginning). And every culture has their “thing.” We shouldn’t idolize. We should synthesize what works for us into *our* thing...
This is a great video, seeing Dave Weckl struggle through this lesson, you don't see this often I enjoyed it. Goes to show you everyone struggles! Even when you're great! It's inspirational to keep practicing. Thank you!
Yes, it's normal to not immediately be a master of everything. Doesn't sound like he is struggling. What he is playing sounds great. The only difficulty he had was trying to play the part that the conga dude was saying he should play. That's normal.
I got to take a lesson at Changuito's house in Cuba. Talk about a treat! And now, more than 20 years later, I'm still working on the stuff he showed me. For anyone interested in further study, my old buddy Chuck Silverman co-wrote (with Changuito) an excellent book called "Changuito: A Master's Approach to the Timbales." I'm pretty sure it's still available from Warner or Manhattan Music.
@@Jrenglehorn To my knowledge Changuito himself never wrote any books-apparently Chuck's is the only one that covers Changuito's playing in depth. Definitely worth picking up if you're a serious player!

This is good to see Him being humble and able to be taught that is great for Me to see this because no matter what we still are students to this instrument Doctors never quit practicing remember that 🙏🏾💪🏿
I love this video. This only proves why his is amazing. He seeks improvement in other styles. He is one of the world best drummer and respected musicians out there due to that. Thank you for sharing this.

According to my drums teacher, Weckl once said "you can only play samba as well as the Brazilians if you're born in Brazil"; and I'm quite sure the same goes for other Latin rhythms (well, many other rhythms overall of course).
It's true! I actually ended up moving to Brazil, largely to improve my samba and other Brazilian/Latin rhythms (and especially rhythms of candomble). Been here nearly 20 years now and my samba playing has improved dramatically-indeed, some folks here say I sound like a native Brazilian player. But I know and accept that I'll never be able to play samba with the same exact feel the Brazilian cats have, just as they'll never have quite the same swing or shuffle feel that I have (being a native-born American). Not surprisingly, here I mostly get called to play or record American styles-blues, jazz, soul, rock, etc.-because I sound "authentic" in those settings. Only occasionally do I get called to do Brazilian styles...and usually then only by those looking for something a bit different.
I love how we are always continuing to learn. No matter how skilled we are, there's always more to learn! Thanks for allowing this to be shared Dave! Much love!
Not only is this a great video of Dave "taking a lesson" lol but it's also cool to see him playing matched grip, which isn't common for him since he's mostly used traditional grip. Great video, thanks for posting!
No wonder I saw Dave Weckl live and in the middle of the solo he started playing Cuban rumba with the same flow as a Cuban. I understand now :D I love my music.
the pattern is active and then a rest and accent an upbeat to finish the phrase. if you go back beat automatic pilot youll get thrown. gotta take the rest. a 16th i think or 2. pretty sweet .
The comments saying Dave didn’t need to learn anything from changuito are so wrong. Latin beats and Rythms are so much more different and complex than the rock stuff weckl was trying to do. I have so much more respect for an American drummer who is used to playing in 4/4, to play Latin music.
One year late but if you didt'n find it, that's one of the Changuito's Songo Drum Movements (#3 specifically) , he performs this one in a DVD La Histora Del Songo
Por que lo mas probable es que Dave Weckl haya querido darle el mismo toque que changuito, yo hago lo mismo, cuando toco bossas, baladas o estandares toco tradicional y cuando toco salsa o algun ritmo afrocubano o latino toco con la izquierda empuñada para tratar de darle el mismo toque de los timbaleros o bateristas cubanos, aunque obviamente no toco asi de virtuoso como Dave Weckl.
Dave Weckl? Wow what a random find. I saw him in Hollywood like 15 maybe 20 years ago, maybe more. Some show at a small club, they only allowed suit and tie. It was weird. 2 drink min too.
So mr. Traditional grip is in this video playing matched grip. Funny how he says now that anyone who plays matched grip doesn't know how to play at all.

Changuito sounds like he's the Uncle everybody loves.😂
Math is not the universal language.. is this one: " pa tucutucu pa.. pararapapa tucurupupa"
Can you imagine....that is how they comunicate. Now check what those Cuban bands do.... with nothing written down 😅
Don ' t forget the " BOONG !
genuine LOL
hahahahahahaha
chek changuito singed percussion solo in the video van van in europe, ist craazy, i think hes high hahaha
That old compressed video sound makes stuff like this sound extra good
Morten it truly does
Its our vinyl
Mark ODay hahaha
VHS had better audio quality than cassettes
@@DanielRiera Sure. But usually camcorders had some compression, and a crisp punchy sound
Aah he is human after all!
ah ... man you made the internet today

I once saw a video where Dennis Chambers messed up......such a relief!

Can't get this beat out of my head
It’s Changuito’s songo for kit. Look up La historia del Songo

Not true Dave Weckl is not even Latino & some Asian girl plays as good as any Latino or Brazilian drummer some where in Asia.
@@royaldomain4055 as a latino i can say is true, weckl and some asian girl can do it just as well
The point is listen a lot of music.if you listen samba during the years,you going to have the feel and groove inside.and obviously a lot of practice.
Repetition is the mother of learning. On the spot necessity is the father of learning.
THESE.....WERE....THE DAYS!!!!!! AHHHHHHH Perfection
Changed my opinion of weckl he seems a very humble guy.
I love how we are always continuing to learn. No matter how skilled we are, there's always more to learn! Thanks for allowing this to be shared Dave! Much love!

Speaking from their hearts. Great masters.
Well my right ear enjoyed this very much
GREAT VIDEO. DIDN'T KNOW THIS HAPPENED. THANKS FOR SHARING.
Ooh pahh ooohh pah! …in love❤
Those fills were almost gospel like.. awesome! This is why he's one of the greats, it's because he studied with all the greats!
Lo máximo este video ❤
The laugh on changuito!!!! Hahahaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Glad they got the chance to share their amazing legacy
Chan güito is in need right now in Cuba. If someone that he helped some day see this…. Please put your hand in your hard for him.
That smile is priceless!
At first i thought the groove was a prerecorded keyboard beat. Tight af
Dave weckl is from another planet!
Not in this video he isn't, he is shown up for being human which is very reassuring. Something you're not used to seeing very often.
That's pretty unique footage of Weckl playing match grip.
Gotta love the Prell commercial days Dave!
No wonder I saw Dave Weckl live and in the middle of the solo he started playing Cuban rumba with the same flow as a Cuban. I understand now :D I love my music.
holy shit this is amazing to see
Increible ver a estos dos juntos , genial
Wow!!!!...fun...and look at the HAIR!!!
The best video I ever have seen!
I don’t feel that bad for struggling with this anymore!
Love this
Historic and revolutionary.
the pattern is active and then a rest and accent an upbeat to finish the phrase. if you go back beat automatic pilot youll get thrown. gotta take the rest. a 16th i think or 2. pretty sweet .
Ohhhh 😱😱😱😱♥️ también sangra 😱♥️
Mega humilde Dave Weckl☺👏👏👏👏
This gives me hope 🙂
Ladies and gentlemen. Drum talk.
Totally dope
He played more technically back then . loved it. Still the best.
Tiene pinta de que va a salir bueno ese muchacho
very nice, i like it.
Hell yes Changuito
Must have been around when he released ,"The Next Step"
oh man that is so sweet!
We are the Rythm of the World.. It's natural!
La clave senior, la clave es como el sangue
Holy cow this is awesome :)
Love it!!
this is really inspiring!
Super cool!!

Not only music..drums were the first cell phones😁🇨🇦
Donde esta el video completo
..por favor

Its amaizing to see how masters share the knowledge, hahha
Classic Video
Business in the front. Party in the back 🤙🏻
"No!!!"
I loved that.
jajaja como un padre al hijo
@@paravervideos algo asi como en confianza.
The rhythm he is trying to learn is called Songo
RockmanYoshi Songo Funkdafied Changuito Style is the name of it. Plain songo is different.
The comments saying Dave didn’t need to learn anything from changuito are so wrong. Latin beats and Rythms are so much more different and complex than the rock stuff weckl was trying to do. I have so much more respect for an American drummer who is used to playing in 4/4, to play Latin music.
Anyone has the transcription of the groove?
Where did you find this? Everyone would love to see the whole thing. Amazing.
Cool! Watching this at 3:30am :) DC
04:52*
0:45 Anyone know if those are 5 stroke rolls? Trying to learn that awesome fill. Thanks!
They're 4-stroke ruffs. Weckl abuses that lick, in a good way
" I need more cowbell " 🤣
The amount of bricks I produced during those seconds that I was thinking "Shit, my left speaker has died" can't be counted.
1:15 nice fill
Even great drummers have problems in the beginning but Dave will iron that out.
Cool 😎
cool stuff
Does anyone know if this song exists somewhere ? its catchy like hell!
One year late but if you didt'n find it, that's one of the Changuito's Songo Drum Movements (#3 specifically) , he performs this one in a DVD La Histora Del Songo
its basically songo. Just look up old los van van records
My favorite part is when he's screaming 'boom' in spanish
Latín music very important style
Goooo paaaaa
A MI OIDO DERECHO LE GUSTA ESTO !
alguien sabe, porque no esta usando metodo tradicional?
Por que lo mas probable es que Dave Weckl haya querido darle el mismo toque que changuito, yo hago lo mismo, cuando toco bossas, baladas o estandares toco tradicional y cuando toco salsa o algun ritmo afrocubano o latino toco con la izquierda empuñada para tratar de darle el mismo toque de los timbaleros o bateristas cubanos, aunque obviamente no toco asi de virtuoso como Dave Weckl.

Drumming is like your finger print. All a little different.
The drummer looks like Captain Sig From Deadliest Catch.

So mr. Traditional grip is in this video playing matched grip. Funny how he says now that anyone who plays matched grip doesn't know how to play at all.
Where did he say that?
Tony Gorga it’s funny how ur mom raised a child that is oblivious to people that reply to ur comments.
buddy rich said that....
Yeah that makes more sense.
@@yoyolebatteur and buddy was right ( former meta drummer here i got old and finaly learned how to proper play drums TRADITIONAL AND JAZZ )
Did they record anything together?
Matched grip??!
