Hey Earl, how's it going? Your videos seldom fail to put a smile on my face. Thank you and please keep them coming. I am a relatively new drummer (18 months) and at 60 years of age wish that I had started earlier. I do try to play every day. I find your videos to be of great inspirational and instructional value.
Leonard Smith ... thanks for watching Leonard! I appreciate being an inspiration to players like you. It great to start playing an instrument at your age hang in there and enjoy! 😀
Earl, you are amazing to watch when you do these jazz covers. A nice light touch for the song but man, you play it sweet. You comp really well on the left hand!
Jorge St. Jorge ... thank you for the kind words my friend. I plan on doing many more jazz covers because I feel that freedom to create my part . Also I can’t run from the fact I’m a jazz drummer! 😀👍🏻
Jay Klein ... it was truly me playing. I just heard that song that day one time before I sat down and played. It was just a groove and riffing! Thanks!
Tony thanks for watching! Yea, I have found a way to make videos pretty quickly and get a decent sound. It helps have the recording studio! Your welcome my old friend!
Really diggin' your jazz playing. Very impressive. I've mentioned before I always found it an intimidating style. I never developed the chops or subtlety necessary for that kind of playing. It's great fun watching and hearing you though.
jay ... I’m working a series of jazz lessons on the basics of jazz drumming. My first lesson will be out this week. I think you will see the mystery of jazz is the dynamics of the feet and hands. I go into this in the lesson. I plan on doing more lessons.
That sounds fantastic Earl. Perfect balanced and very crisp. Where is the basic track from? Your swing is perfect. I can listen for hours to that perfect piece of drum cover. Great job!
Thomas Nommensen - Drum & Mix ... hi Thomas ... the song is from a “Brubeck” play along book that my daughter bought me for Christmas last year. It has some great jazz standards without drums. I think the entire play along book title might be in this song’s description.
DJ Collin ... thanks for watching DJ ... the ride cymbal is a 22” Zildjian Kerope ...there is a 19” Kerope on the floor tom side and a 18” Sabian HH Sound Control Crash Ride! Thanks for asking!
UKDrummerDan ... Hi Dan. Thanks the ride is a Zildjian 22” Kerope. It’s s beautiful cymbal. I have a really bad shot video of me playing on a live Worship Music Recording that was released to CD, Spotify and a UA-cam in 2015. It’s the actual footage of me playing that night. All you really see is my drummer face ... I also play the Kerope! It’s called All He Say I Am.
