@@sonomaskio7874 that's because those good old chops are all this master needs to make a perfect solo, with all the aspects of groove, feel and telling a musical story that makes sense and is to the point. It shows that he's creative, because his solo's are from the heart and in the moment, even if he only uses the same signature licks (which are many btw.) Your comment shows that we've forgotten what it's all about. Gadd's playing reminds us that making music is not an athletic sport, but it's telling a story and moving people.
Mr Friendly...Respectfully, I don’t need to hear your opinion & lecture. You can rant about Gadd all day if you want, I’ve heard it all before!! I think your missing the point (which l’m not going to repeat) I haven’t forgotten anything,Btw! I know Gadd’s contribution to the music “FIRST” & then to the INSTRUMENT!! I noticed that your perspective about him is a biased one!!! My angle is a subjective one!! SO, you can carry on admiring Steve Gadd!! Ohh! and BTW!...pls continue to be delighted by hearing the same ol’ story in his playing!!!!!
@@sonomaskio7874 That something called "style", or "personal sound", which I'm not sure you'll have 50 years from now - at least one that's still relevant.
I went on 9/29, early show, and managed to sit 18 inches from Gadd's HiHat. It was so amazing. I brought my 11 year-old with me and Gadd was so nice to him. A most memorable father/son night out.
wow.. what a angle for the video.. its a drummers dream come true to watch the GROOVE KING ... w chick and all these great musicians... thanks for posting this up....
Steve is playing so ... delicate ... groovy ... supportive ...nobody can do it like him. There are lots of drummers with a drumset twice as big, but Steve brings out so many colours. His cooperation with the percussionist is mindblowing. Always a miracle. 🥰🙏
Always so special to come across these videos of MR.Gadd playing.Everything he played on was truly a work of passion.I especially loved what he did with steely Dan, and Paul Simon. You just know when he was the drummer on the record.One of the greatest of all times.!!! When I think of drumming and the true legends of the instrument He's at the top of the list.
Isn't it great to see such super seasoned musicians still have so much fun after all these years? And they aren't half naked or making suggestive moves or jumping around like idiots or playing so loud you can't stand it. I LOVE JAZZ MUSICIANS. Bless you all.
The MAN never misses a ghost note !!! You can only get there by being Steve Gadd for 70+ years. No other way Sorry folks … You can try ?!? … but let’s be real now
Gadd was the best drummer going back in the 70's. His records with Chick in the 70's were amazing. He has a great style of drumming. It is not as special though as it used to be when he was younger and played with more fire.
Adoraria ver um percussionista qualquer, ficar tocando uma ou duas notas num sintetizador, enquanto seu Chico Correa fizesse um solo em seu instrumento. No mais, a beleza também está presente no ocaso.
I see some Gadd "haters"in this comments section,lol.The success of a drummer is not just based on their "chops" relative to other drummers.Successful drummers are that because they play with successful musical acts,both in recording and live settings. This is how the majority of music industry people and non musician fans see drummers and other musical instrumentalists.This thing with drummers about who is the best this and that is irrelevant and narcissistic.That way of thinking about anything never withstands the test of time...
You always hear the 'music' in a Gadd solo...still the most 'musical' drummer out there since the 70's.....long live the king!
athomp2006 ...And!!! ....you hear the same ole redundant,repetitive
bag of licks in every solo...It’s so
fucking tiring to hear since 1970!!!!
if it's not broken, don't fix it!@@sonomaskio7874

Steve would do anything for somebody if he weren’t one of them the busiest musicians in the world
I was just watching this thinking, man I wouldn't want to be sitting 3 feet from his hi-hat??! 😂
Or would I? 🤔
This is what makes a master drummer. His feel, dynamics, an sense of the musical pulse are just second to none. There's only one Steve Gadd.
So musical, is Gadd... No matter what drummer I listen to, I always come back to his natural groove... There is no other like him.
Yes, his style of play is unique and impossible to not notice.
wow.. what a angle for the video.. its a drummers dream come true to watch the GROOVE KING ...
w chick and all these great musicians... thanks for posting this up....
Man That Grip!!! Those sticks just seem to float in his hands!
He's letting the sticks do the work- a true master.

Love Gadd! I could watch him play quarter notes on just the hi hat and be blown away by his feel. DC
I love watching a master at work....good Gadd almighty!
Always perfect, zero mistakes ...100% present. STEVE GADD
Corea no puede con su genio, se entromete en todos lados!
so anoying
Siempre es hermoso ver y escuhar a Gadd

The musicality and touch are still unmatched thank you for this post 👍
These millions of jazz videos on UA-cam are gold....working my way through them. Got stuck on the MASTER!!!
This guy is still going strong since 1968

All about the feel and groove Steve Gadd,the master,fills my ears and soul with happyness.
God, the simple little changes and feel. Corea and Gadd are gold. The leprechaun is a Masterpiece. Love these guys!
Incredible. It´s effortless, smooth and full of love for the music. Only one guy can do that : Gadd.
Inducted into the drummer Hall of fame, because Steve is one fantastic drummer.
simply wonderful !
Gadd’s drum work sounds more violent than it looks. He’s so efficient. His drumming on Lenore from The Leprechaun is the best I have ever heard.
Brilliant stuff. You couldn’t ask for a better angle. Everyone is enjoying themselves, which shows in the music.
Great drummer our steve...enjoy very much..
Love the way the band come over to watch. Class..
YEAH! Always the right stuff in the right places.
The GOAT!!! PERIOD!!!
A master at work, thanks!
This is my seventh time here. Hooked on this tune. Mainly because of Mr. gadd.
Gadd is amazing. Chick is amazing.
oh my Gadd!! thanks man!!!
Un plaisir de la vie que d écouter cette musique
Night streets, its stil my favorite song from Chick fucking awesome i listened it a million times probably
Good Gadd!!! Man, he is astoundingly good.
Haha noice!
Como toca este hombre Dios mío!!!,thanks Mr. Gadd
That crash cymbal sounds great. Wish I knew what it is.
Awesome drumming,his paradiddles are one of a kind.
🤩🤩🤩 GADD/COREA!! What a classic moment!!
This is awesome!
Master (s) in action. Talk about groove and action...
Gadd is KING!
Old cat still got the groove, ideas and music. That 16ths on the hat, damn, lets go dancing!!!
Amazing solo loved the floor tom stuff too!
What touch feel timing grove he has it all.
Thanks so much for posting this fantastic video!! Too bad I wasn't there to see this live, but thanks to you I at least got close!
Very nice improvisation at the end of that solo sweet! ......
super mega hyper genial.. Gadd is it so amazing
Steve , it’s unbelievable that a human can play like that..........thank you sir!
The tempo, tight locked. Wow.
... and even more amazing / funny, there's a Berkelee guy somewhere saying "I can do that better than him, he's not so great".
Yeah, funny ... I don't believe this guy.
Note Berklee gave Mr. Gadd an honorary Dr. Degree…..Vinnie played in it…
How many drummers does it take to screw in a light bulb?...1..and the 100 others standing around sayung.."meh..i can do that"
Gadd MASTERDRUMMER...
let's hope we make beautiful audio CDs from all this live material. thank you
Very good
Beautiful~~!!!
The MAN never misses a ghost note !!! You can only get there by being Steve Gadd for 70+ years.
No other way
Sorry folks …
You can try ?!? …
but let’s be real now
Gadd teaches a master class in what it means to “lift the bandstand”
Steve Gadd’s right foot technique is insane!
Chick - love ya', man....put the f'ing cowbell down!
t3wells omg yes
Actually Chick can play drums quite well!
@@pavelstumpf4783 - Ohhh, I am well aware of Chick's druming prowess. He plays good vibes, too.
It's the cowbell....
:D :D
Disappointed Gadd didn’t launch a stick a knock that cowbell outta his hand!
This tune is called Night Streets. Originally on My Spanish Heart. Amazing song and outstanding Gadd solo.
Thanks for the name of the song. I thought I've heard it before on that album.
1976, such a legendary album !
grand master !!!!!
Fantastic !!
If you're on a time crunch , start at 07:00
this needs to be high up there in the comment section
10:25 Almost thought Chick was gonna go Will Ferrell on us.
FLAVORrrrrr!!!!
Beautiful!!!
Steve, one of a kind !!
Wow, that was sic.
Still playing his ass off!
Monsters ! Great Time !
Steve Gadd man oh man .
Steve is Gadd!
Groove, thy name is Gadd.
Hermoso grandiosa fusion ! quien fuera Steve Gadd y no un alejandro llanas tocando huapangos
Great angle my friend!
Why do I get the feeling Gadd just stepped off a pirate ship and was asked to play some drums at the local tavern 🍺☠
Gadd was the best drummer going back in the 70's. His records with Chick in the 70's were amazing. He has a great style of drumming. It is not as special though as it used to be when he was younger and played with more fire.
That goes for most of these fenomenal musicians when groving older. But just LISTEN what he's playing today! He is still nombero uno.
The very first synonym for badass is Steve Gadd
Great Musicianship!!!!
Adoraria ver um percussionista qualquer, ficar tocando uma ou duas notas num sintetizador, enquanto seu Chico Correa fizesse um solo em seu instrumento. No mais, a beleza também está presente no ocaso.
RIP chick
Who gave that guy a cowbell.
Great playing wish Carlitos bass was a bit louder.
That hat is really hitting the condenser.
Nice👌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So good
chick comes in with the cowbell lmao
He's in the pocket on that cowbell

The Guy who makes you sound better
nite sprite !!!!! my fave song .....
Actually this is Night Streets from My Spanish Heart. But this band also played an excellent version of Nite Sprite, also available on You Tube.
Steve,jesteś największy !!!
Great drummer . for me the best all round drummer, and ive been playing for 40 years .
What was that Corea was trying to do on the the bell during the Gadd-Solo?
The Guvnor!🤗
Steve GOD
WTF is Chick doing??? he's distracting the solo.
At 14:18 that's a sickkkkkk flamed mill permutation
And who else wants to be that bongo player?
Someone plz make sure theres no stick for Chick in the future
Loose the cowbell, let the man do his thing
RIP Chick.
