Gil Sharone playing a medley of classic Jamaican reggae rhythms. Check out Gil's DVD, WICKED BEATS out now through Hudson Music!!! www.gilondrums.com gilsharone
How crazy. 8 years later I think to my self I want to watch some badd ass reggae drumming and this came to my mind. So i look up the unforgettable name. And I find your legit ass comment. !!
Holy shit I used to watch this all the time in 2006/7 but I could not remember your name for the life of me. Just finished watching your drumeo video and when they said your name it clicked. So glad I could come back to this. Still amazing
This guy embodies the concept of musical versatility. He jams with all his heart to classic reggae grooves and ska, but he's played with the Dillinger Escape Plan - nuff said.
i found the first song!!!! man, i looked all over youtube for this song, however i must warn all of you that have been looking for it just like me, its not the same rythm as the one on this video but it is the same song...looks like Gil using a remixed version...its by AUGUSTUS PABLO - 555 DUB STREET
Just outta sight mon -)) Yeahh ... got me skankin" on that one, nuff respect, dis is heartbeat music showin' forth the marvellous works of creation livin" in I and I ... post more videos please cos' you rock the roots man -)
okay, from what i know, the songs he plays is "Swing Easy" and another song called "Sinsemilla". but the thing is that he has more up-to-date recordings, so he most have had people re-play these songs to sound more modern and better. what he plays here is different from what's on record, but it's still the same songs. i hope that helps ALOT of people.
This is some of the best reggae drumming I've ever seen. I met you Gil once in Sydney, Nova Scotia...I was the young cat at the bar that offered you mushrooms hehe
I have viewed this like a thousand times my grandson makes me repeat it over and over I'm still not sick of it so it must be good he's 2 i guess he wants to be a drummer not a guitarist dang!
I'm not a big reggae fan, but this drumming makes it all so frickin awesome ! reggae can be the lamest music style, but it can also be one of the greatest!
Too many haters on here. This guy really knows what he is doing. Amazing playing. Sensimilla and Rockfort Rock are a couple of the songs he is playing. 5 stars and favorited. Im in the OC. Send me a pm if you need a reggae bass or guitar player :)
whniwsyrsndtrck ur spot on with Gil he plays so tuneful. I also agree best dillinger ever had. Maybe not best technically but who really cares about that. It's the vibe the musical expression the feeling and Gil has that by the bucket load.
Hello!!!!!!!!!!Dude you are wicked on those drums...............Very nice accenting I might add this video has introduced me to a new style of playing thanx............I also checked out some of your other vids nice!!!!!
17 years later. Still one the best drumming videos on UA-cam. I first saw this when I was 14 or something. Now 31 y.o. Still kicks ass.
16 years later and still coming back to this for my reggae drum fix.
8 years later - still the best reggae drumming video on the Internet! :)
jimmyshitbags Yeah, I just came back for my monthly fix myself. 🤙✌️
1:58-2:09 is so off the hook good... jazzin out and landing right back in Kingston 🇯🇲🔥🙌

Here's the best IMHO ua-cam.com/video/pEUiCjZsaW0/v-deo.html
Come on!
Best drum video on youtube
Still listening in 2022
One of the gems I encountered during the early days of UA-cam 🙂
15 yes later and I’m still getting goosebumps
I remember watching this video when it came out
somehow I just keep coming back to this video every 6 months or so
16 years later - still the best reggae drumming video on the Internet! :)
That quick fill at 1:18 is the tastiest sounding fill I've ever heard in my life. I can't get enough of it!
you had me check it. slick! peace
Keeps me coming back several times a year... Agree!
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT
@@stankywank6707 four stroke fill - sequence is kick-kick-crash(left hand) floor Tom(right hand)
His right foot is crazy to be that quick and clean
I'm not even a Reggae fan, but I am amazed at Gil's playing every time I watch this.
I first saw this video 10 years ago & it still dope af
Same here b
i will never get tire of watching these video
8 years later still need the name of that horn part in the beginning 😭
U find out ?
Nah man still no luck 🙄
Many years have passed away... And still remains 1 of the best reggae (if not the best) grooves ever!
I remember I was 23 yrs old watching this video. I wanted to play reggae so bad after this.
I haven't watched this video in years that intro with those horns is miraculous.
The song is called "swind easy" and it was composed by the kings of ska, the skatalites!
Holy shit I used to watch this all the time in 2006/7 but I could not remember your name for the life of me. Just finished watching your drumeo video and when they said your name it clicked. So glad I could come back to this. Still amazing

This video was literally the anthem for my summers during high school 🥲
I have a gig tonight in which I'm playing some reggae, watching this guy for inspiration. Thumbs up if he inspires you too!
Couple few times seein you with DEP and Stolen Babies and I keep coming back to this as a straight up lesson in groove and reggae perfection
I can't stop watching Gil Sharone and Stewart Copeland videos. Tell the people the news. Reggae music is on the loose.
His feel on Swing Easy is just jaw dropping! Love the Wicked Beats DVD
How can anyone dislike this. Oh maybe Gil Sharone hates it the 46 times he veiws it.
who dislikes this!?! gil sharone best drummer alive!
Ooooooh YEAAAAAHH!
That's what I'm talking about dude.
Lol, this guy's an actual professional, famous drummer
This video is legendary
i found the first song!!!! man, i looked all over youtube for this song, however i must warn all of you that have been looking for it just like me, its not the same rythm as the one on this video but it is the same song...looks like Gil using a remixed version...its by AUGUSTUS PABLO - 555 DUB STREET
This was one of the very first videos I watched on youtube many years ago , Dec 19 and still rocking....
16 years later and still this jam sounds PERFECT! (2023)
insane , just insane.. great rimshots and the side snare is amazing. very inspiring.
How in the world did 24 people not like this!?! Travesty. Good riddim'.
I could listen to him play for days.
Everytime i watch this i think to myself very rare to hear a drummer play this energetic, flashy, tasty and compelling at the same time!
this man has truly mastered the art of drums. every single note is is rhythmically, dynamically and tastefully PERFECT
I don't know how many time i have watched this video over the years. Love it!
i wish this song was longer!!!!!
I can watch this guy all day never get enough of his funk. Makes you want to hit the wood shed every time. 🥁
Your up there with the best..karigan.domink.marky drums.ect...get get enough of you guys .brilliant.
Hell yes man!! If you cant feel the rythym in this song and/or dont feel like dancing to it, you are definitely watching the wrong stuff on UA-cam.
i Can not stop watching this Video!
-Wil
1st Listen....now an influenced drummer as well...THANK YOU ! Amparo your right in so many ways...
Can't stop watching this...unbelievable!
If anyone who knew Gil could tell him to please make a DVD about his approach on reggea rythms we could all die in peace...!
Smooth as peanut butter Gil!! Word up!

Mihai Drums I’ve been searching for something better for the last 8 years and still haven’t found one.... 😂🤙
Haven't seen sly Dunbar when he was with Black Uhuru?
You need to go out more.
By far. But theres is something horribly wrong with this video and it tears me apart. Its too just too short! It is completly unfair.
Toujours un plaisir à écouter!
Allways a pleasure to listen!
Thx!!!!!
I have viewed this like a thousand times my grandson makes me repeat it over and over I'm still not sick of it so it must be good he's 2 i guess he wants to be a drummer not a guitarist dang!

Ben Weinman still says to this day that Gil was the best drummer The Dillinger Escape Plan ever had. Hard to argue with that..
whniwsyrsndtrck Its hard to argue, though chris pennie was pretty damn good too
Roy Diedesch
Pennie is a living metronome. Perfect timing behind the kit.
whniwsyrsndtrck ur spot on with Gil he plays so tuneful. I also agree best dillinger ever had. Maybe not best technically but who really cares about that. It's the vibe the musical expression the feeling and Gil has that by the bucket load.
