#DMV own #EU #GoGobands Doing #DAButt #Schooldaze one of my #favorite bands!! #JUJU the #greatest #drummer #behindtheband #drummersview #jamminjeff 🥁🎹🎼
Jammin Jeff you are a dynamic drummer..JuJu is a great drummer...So was Sugarfoot Ricky Wellman who played with Miles Davis..But I got to give shout outs to some of the guys who were on the scene in DC before them and the gogo beat took over..Raymond Calhoun who ended up with the Gap Band and wrote the song "Outstanding"..Mousey Thompson (James Brown), Warren Shadd(Smoke), Freddie Ross( Matadors), Bobby Wiggins(Shadows), Greg Holloway (Last Days of Time), Keith Kilgo(Blackbyrds) and all of the drummers at Howard U.and UDC music programs. Some of them are still playing today. Just sharing the names of some of the people who helped lay the foundation for the DC sound.
Nah Kid you got it wrong.....JuJu has always been an icon going back to the Peace Makers with Gary DeWitt and JUJU Fox and Tim das what made EU crank....Somebody sed he looked tired but JuJu always played like that but he still razor sharp on them toms. Far as the new generation Blue eyed Darryl sed UNK was washed up coz he lost his love for the city but maybe not. Jammin Jeff was the sharpest thing out bringing in the new era of drummers. Before Stomp and Buggy got well known Jeff was drumming at the high level JuJu was in the 80's. Footz was smooth and tight but he parlayed too long and kids like JuJu stepped up and took his crown in the late 80's. Also I must mention Hott Cold Sweat drummer "Jammin Jay" people sleep on him but Jeff and Rock Steady had the most explosive two man band back then. Plus you can tell JuJu been partying too much and he look like he been getting high too much I remember JuJu used to own Landover Mall ...He cud walk around like the DON in da mall broads were all over him. Briggs music store upstairs...y'all remember ? Sugar Bear found Scooter up there one day. Scooter was EU horn player he from dat Cap Hgts townhouse crew along with Eddie Winslow from da Ayre Rayde Band. Just a lil history fam but I still vote Jammin Jeff sharpest drummer on scene once the 80's died off.
So funkin cool.. Great footage and a really great sound for live outdoor small gig. Such great music and space understanding with all the musicians.. juju is groove force that's not easy to get near.. legend
Bad man no doubt BUUUUT , it also depends on the STYLE you like . All drummers don't play same . Sugarfoot played a more slowed down TEMPO . He had to slow down with the type of music Chuck played . Ju play all styles and can bounce beat too . He is the LOOSEST drummer . Can sit down and do it without warming up
@@seanfromdaheights1508 I feel ya ....but please don't get me wrong juju is a mfing beast ..I remember all of them Butch ...Rick...Juju Then Mac ...Trouble but when I saw Sugarfoot for the first time at the Coliseum with EU because Chuck in my opinion didn't let him loose...man I ran home asked moms for a drum set ...lol next weekend I was at Chuck Levins... But here check him out with miles.. ua-cam.com/video/yM3k0U-RiwQ/v-deo.html Fast forward to the 8 minute mark. Also Quick Buggy Willie Blue Animal Darkness Jeff Stomp and Young man (Domo) and a few more got funky ass groove sets as well. One day listening to an interview of Michael Jackson drummer BTW named Sugarfoot...actually mentioned Sugarfoot Ricky as only one who foot skills was on his level...you be the judge tho ...
@@9674efc oh no doubt I'm just saying it's a matter of style and who you like . Btw Buggy said it himself he like Sugarfoot with Chuck because he slowed the pocket down when all the other bands were playing faster . Styles make fights . Salute
From 13:25 on that's the real "Experience Unlimited " not " EU "...That funk/fusion/rock groove they are cranking was the reason back in the day people loved them even before they switched to GoGo.
HE BE JAMMIN HE BE JAMMIN JEFF hey fam just subscribed to your channel. Keep posting and ima comment and share bro. Always a pleasure, JUJU GIT BIZY 1 TIME, GO JUJU GO JU GO All Love fame, Tony-Tone (BackRoad)
He’s doing a good job banging but where is it going the barest drummer I ever heard was skinny Brown from Charlottesville Virginia skinny had it all in his early days he weighed in at 275 lbs he could double clutch had a killer down off beat and could roll with his left hand better than most drummers with 2 hands which created a glare when he went around the world on all his drums when we came back up dropping bombs he would incorporate the funkiest off timing rhythm unheard of ……Skinny Brown….
Why does everything have to be a competition? And I'm pretty competitive when it's appropriate. But music is really all about ones subjective tastes and preferences.
@@theworkoutethic true. But back in the day, that’s what these bands did, they were fierce competitors. Most of these bands didn’t like each other and they bragged about having the best drummers. So, it’s nothing personal, comparing different band members is nothing new. It’s part of the old tradition.
ALSO " SUGAR FOOT " RICKY [ RICK WELLMAN ] GOT A CALL AND PLAYED FOR THE GREAT MILES DAVIS WHERE HE INFUSED THE BEATS OF GO-GO WITH THE JAZZ OF MILES DAVIS . R.I.P. RICK WELLMAN .
Sorry my brother as far as go go and or jazz is concerned the best drummer is not with us any more and his name is Mr Ricky (sugar foot) wellman.You know better than that.Didnt yall live close in Chappell oaks?Where you think ju got his chops?Im surprised at you lol.By the the way this is another use to be great drummer.Supa skinny lol im old and broke down now but i still kick.I kick with a group called Stone Pleasure.We play different types of music.They are based out of southern md.I play this weekend.But lies you tell Sugar foot will always be my drum hero and thats where i got some of my chops from.
So I wasn't the only one that Sugarfoot turned into a drummer...I mostly horsed around I got pretty good at it but never took it further than my basement ...I gave up my big set now I have an electric set in the man cave ...I'm still a gogo enthusiasts but married with kids sometimes kills dreams..lol But good luck to you Forget what they say set the tempo and keep their heads bobbin
ju is getting old its about that time to retire the sticks.Those drums are wearing him out.Trust me i know the feeling.Every time i try to retire something keep bringing me back.I take a pain pill everytime i play.I even walk with a cain.Im messed up jeff but i still play.I play bass now also.When you met me i was really a lead guitar player.Ask tip top ty.I was pc groovers first lead player.Ty kept trying to get me to play guitar for quality band.

Frankie Beverly x Maze - The Look In Your Eyes (Live version)
At 12:59 juju does the most sick.. dynamic and funked out It's mind drum fill/s I've ever heard! The phrasing is fucking ridiculous.
From 13:25 on that's the real "Experience Unlimited " not " EU "...That funk/fusion/rock groove they are cranking was the reason back in the day people loved them even before they switched to GoGo.
I agree with you. Funk/fusion/rock
FOOTS! Then comes errybody else!

0:23 the classic JuJu (Slave To The Rhythm) drum fill right before the snare hits . Also sampled by UTFO on ‘You Cold Wanna Be With Me’.
He's definitely a tight drummer. They're many good drummers in the area & they all have a different flavor.
He’s doing a good job banging but where is it going the barest drummer I ever heard was skinny Brown from Charlottesville Virginia skinny had it all in his early days he weighed in at 275 lbs he could double clutch had a killer down off beat and could roll with his left hand better than most drummers with 2 hands which created a glare when he went around the world on all his drums when we came back up dropping bombs he would incorporate the funkiest off timing rhythm unheard of ……Skinny Brown….
Heavy one, Foots
The Goat hands down. The only person that comes close to juju is buggy
Regardless of the competitiveness amongst drummers, I have to give it to EU because every member in the lineup tore it UP....
fi real fi real... he is relly good. what kinda music is this tho? i love the groove. yooo we gotta the get the youths into this kinda vibes
Listen to Junk Yard by Grace Jones
DONT GET ME WRONG JUJU WAS A BEAST BUT DENNIS CHAMBERS FROM PARILMENT FUNKADELIC WAS A MONSTER FUNKY AND BEYOND
Hey, Jeff what about Footz?
Honestly, JuJu wasn't the greatest go-go drummer. Sugar Foot Rick was. In the 80's, Sugar Foot played for Chuck and EU.
Sugar Foot was a monster
Exactly. I agree 100%. But don’t forget about Butch. He is on the Paragon Two joint.

Very Funky.. PS the best drummer ever never played GoGo 🤦🏽♂
Where exactly did this take place?
Song name at around 4:30-5:00?
What happen to Marvin one of the original members
what is the first songs title?
Where was this?
The title is offensive to true old heads .He is up there among the best .but not the greatest!.
They were all good.. quit all this " best ever" nonsense...
You tweakin’. Buggy for sure
