This guy is at this 70s yet he's still a badass playing those drums
To any new learners, Roger Taylor is one of the best R&R drummers of all time and is still playing today. He’s like a grand master. Take note.
You mean R&B?
@@andyw.3048 R&R = Rock & Roll
@Pie and he’s got a feel for his automobile
A total unique drummer. His drumming plays a massive part of every queen song.
Definitely
"It'S tHe DrUmMeR vIrUs!"
-Roger Taylor, 2020
The man who inspired me to play drums when I was a kid. Thank you Mr Taylor!
I think he inspired me and im 60...
Best thing about roger is that he knows all the fancy stuff but he ALWAYS serves the song. That takes discipline. Amazing Roger
i would pay just to hear the stories about queen out on the road in the 70s ,early 80s...roger played some killer stuff musically on the drums!
Same
Agree! I could sit and listen all day to Roger (and Brian) sharing their memories and experiences from the late 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s
Roger’s trademark is hitting the snare with a very slightly open hi hat, closing the hat half a beat after the snare strike.
I noticed that too!
That's his tardemark from day one even if he hasn't invented that.
I noticed that always too. I don't really like it tho...
I noticed that from the first time I heard queen, been doing it myself ever since.
@@joelananthan I’ve heard he does it to emphasize the bass drum. It’s a great feature and the drums sound great to me
I’m not a drummer. I’m not even a musician. In fact I’m a grandma who has followed Queen since my salad days. Just want you to know, I’m following you because you have entertained me with your incredible falsetto and drum skills since we both sported long hair and tight leather slacks. Today...not so much. My hair is short and leather pants make my legs sweat. (Shrug) but I still admire talent. Thank you for the music, especially the beat. ROCK ON!
Hello grandma if you dont mind me asking what does salad days mean
@@aleb6245
Your salad days are when you’re young. You know all fresh, colorful and a little green. Like the early part of a meal, salad days are the early part of your life. LOL! It’s an old expression. I’m an old gal. Thanks for calling me grandma! Love it!
@@DeeVet1 ohh makes sense now i love calling you grandma too thankyou for replying
What a gift!
Learning from a legend!!

@@rogertaylor2345 wtf
2:06 Staying Power, live?
2:37 Another One Bites The Dust?
2:47 Dragon Attack?
3:09 Radio GaGa
3:20 Sheer Heart Attack
Good job! Ummm, I'm not sure! This is one of my favorite drummer in the world outside of John Bonham!!!
3:20 also is don't stop me now
1:47 More of that jazz?
Immigrant Song
2:40 sounds kinda like Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean
Such a simple and down to earth guy. He s an icon, a living legend,a millionnaire, but gives a very simple drum lesson in his basement(not in a high tech studio). very cool.
Hello Mr. Taylor. It is an honor to watch your video and it was a privilege to have grown up listening to Queen, in my opinion, the best rock band of all time. I was still a teenager when I first knew about you. Today in my fifties, my heart still beats of joy every time I listen to Queen Music. With my deepest feeling of admiration to you for your great performance playing the drums, composing songs, and singing in the band as well; Juan Manuel, a true admirer from Medellin, Colombia says God bless you.
Just amazing work both Roger and Brian are doing online right now for free. What good human beings.
Not just a great Rock drummer who always had a good solution and problem solving. Roger is an amazing musician!
Roger Taylor, for all the youngsters, is one of the best drummers in R&R. Taylor's trademark was always playing what was best for the song instead of a standard beat for every album. Taylor was and is a very melodic drummer, probably because he sang on every song by Queen.
Yeah, if you've just started playing drums, Roger Taylor is truly among the elite of the drumming world!
I´ve have never had the chance to become a drummer or a musician, sometimes life guides us through other paths, but seeing Roger playing drums on TV when I was 6 years old, the Flash Gordon Movie, Radio Gaga videoclip, etc... it really shocked my world, and make me love drums. I still have this pending task with drums. Awsome lesson and a beatiful sneek peek to Roger´s life. Genius. My best regards from Argentina. PS.: What an awsome drums sound!!!.
I just love the way he uses his index fingers for the double strokes. It's quite unique. Thank you for your so long living inspiration through our lives.
Yeah he's bee dog that since the start. Watch the Keep Yourself Alive solos from the Rainbow and Hammersmith. He controls the sticks with his index finger rather than his little finger. He always does it with paradiddles. Very unorthodox. Gene Krupa used that technique too.
Roger is multi-talented. Not only does he play excellent drums, but also great guitar and has a unique voice 🥁🎸🎙🤗❣
This is very cool to watch, for someone who doesn’t drum. So incredibly kind for him to share his experience & mentor other drummers, and support those who have to stay at home. This is community at it’s best. Well done. Stay safe everyone, & be kind. Xxxooo
Thank you Roger! Your drumming has brought all of us so much excitement, fun and pleasure for decades. Only recently did I realise what a superb singer you are as well.
I would dearly love a private lesson from Roger, followed him for years!! Thanks Roger!!!
Greatest drummer of all time!! We all have our special favorites and Rodger is mine. Love the style!! John Bonham was excellent!
Thank you for showing us!! I'm 52 and highly unlikely to ever learn how to play another musical instrument.
I am sure all the up-and-coming drummers and newer kids coming into this can learn a lot from you. Watching your style makes me realize that when I was in the drum and bugle Corps back in the 1980s that are Drum Corps was good but what they didn't know...WOW!!

Never mind the young aspiring drummers, what about the old ones Roger?!
Got me a drum kit. Haven’t played it for about 18 months, my old neighbour moaned. But all his fences are down and he refuses to sort them...so guess what.... the ole kit is going to get a bashing again. You are my favourite drummer so seeing your videos has made my day! I don’t care if I’m furlowed forever now... 💜💜
You need just more Cowbell !! As my self lol

Legend of a musician, a pleasure to listen to.
I love you Roger!!! You are the best drummer of the world!! Queen always in my heart, my soul, my life!!!
Absolutely! Be sure you are following him and his wife Sarina on Instagram and do not miss anything new! Take care!
@@infiniticz wish he had a UA-cam channel like Brian's (even if all the vids were reposts from his insta)
@@janedoe0987 Actually he has, but don't expect updated account with acutal instagram videos - only officially released clips... Roger Taylor Solo

From Auckland New Zealand My son Zach is 13 just started drumming has a Hitting drum pad and his drum sticks ....im 45 years old i have had great Enjoyment hearing Queen all my life.Now my Point.. BIG thank you for putting some great teaching of how we can learn from great people like you Mr Roger Taylor as this is not seen very offen just thanks for showing what you do my son Zach can watch and get too practice anyway KEEP THE QUEEN BAND GOING NO MATTER WHAT AS IT HEALS THE WORLD ....
I’ve been listening to Queen for so long and with so much passion it has become part of me (and classic cars of course) needless to say I’m in love with Queen and my car). Huge respect to Roger for doing this and Brian doing his thing on UA-cam too😍
Every Pratt who give this a thumbs down, wishes they could be a unique Drummer, write brilliant songs, and have a vocal range to die for...oh! and be part of the greatest band ever!
I saw Queen with Lambert. Best concert I ever saw! Watching Roger and Brian work their magic in person was a thrill. I wish I could see them play again, and that this virus was behind us so we can get back to normal.
Drummers are often underrated and any good musician and singer knows how much a good drummer worts for a band.
My favorite drummer & band, sorry it took a pandemic to give time for our heroes the time join us on social media, thanks Roger, Robert Fripp, Eric Johnson's lessons. It feels like quality time to me, thanks Roger, let us learn more from you about drums & the solo albums you played guitar, keys & singing. Strange Frontier & Fun in Space come to mind.
Grande Roger Taylor!!!!, thanks for the video. Greetings from Seville, Spain.
Great stuff..💪seen you twice .1975 free trade hall..still have the program..and 1978 Germany westfanhalle..I was in a band at the time called TAXI..We had the honour playing on the same stage QUEEN played on a week later..Great experience 💪..
Such a pleasure to Hear & See You Roger🙏
G.O.A.T. And legend 🔥🐐
2:44 - isn't that what Ringo Starr does? Amazing! :)
Except that Ringo happens to be left-handed and plays a right-handed kit.
@@QueenDynamo ohh 👁👄👁
This great man is the reason I started to play drums years ago..and he was born in the same town as me......now if only I was any where near his talent then I'd be happy!! 😊
What a legend is Roger Taylor
Has always been my absolute favourite drummer. The way he uses the high hat is extraordinary.
Crunchy on 2 and 4! Unique.
the legend no word🙏
I'm not a drummer but love watching R T at work
pure class saw you live in Germany in the 80s best show I ever saw
Great insight Roger, thank you for that and for being one of many inspirations for playing the drums too! God bless, stay safe, keep calm and carry on!!!

❤Maybe I’ll take up the drums! 🥁 I know my neighbors would appreciate! Roger makes it look easy and fun! I’m only 65, but I think 🤔 l could learn 😊
It's nice to see Mr. Taylor giving drum lessons!!! ..😊…btw, during these days I've been practicing the paradiddle with a practice pad and 5A drum sticks. Greetings from Colombia!!! 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴

Great Roger, Got the volume way up!😎👌💕
8ths then 16th’s no? Roger is my all time drum hero 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Thank you Roger.
Love your work.
Ich habe keine Ahnung vom Schlagzeug spielen. Ich weiß nicht wie man es fertig bringt mit 2 Stöcken so tolle Musik zu machen. Es ist für mich ein Rätsel.
Yes Roger your the best drummer of queen i love how you played thank you for sharing your idea how to play drums to everyone..
Thank you for doing this! I enjoyed your playing and singing from the 1st day I heard you!
So now finally his voice is fit with his face. Roger was beautiful, and now very gentle.

Najwspanialszy perkusista ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
great lesson. Direct to the point
Roger is the BOSS!!
The most popular old man around the world
It was fabulous seeing him play the drums with his son, Rufus. They had a drum battle. 😝
uuyyy, que bien sabes tocar la batería y me sorprendió y tiene un buen ritmo..le doy un like pulgar arriba.. soy de bogotá colombia..
2:05 sounds like the beat to the Immigrant by Led zeppelin
Ooo, i thought about it too!
Royer Taylor!!for Ever!!desde Argentina,soy tu fans desde 1981.
Fantastic....loved it!
Thanks for all of them!
Thanks for posting! I will go and practice this now.
Thanks... You are so magic !!!
For ever in my heart...
(Richard from Argentina).
Thank you Roger,a delightful gift learning from the master. Hoping you,Bri & Adam can whip up another masterpiece like champions the other day !!
I've never seen someone hold their drumsticks like that, he has a very unique technique
You should see the way Bev Bevan holds his sticks, especially when he was with The Move. It's such a weird grip!
He is not a Pro😂
great vid roger,stay safe,see you in 2021
As a 67yr old learner who has loved drums since the first days of hearing Buddy Holly and The Crickets and of course The Beatles, what better teacher can I have than the Brilliant Roger Taylor, I bought a professional electronic drum kit recently so I can practice without annoying the neighbours. Thanx for the lessons Roger, you are one of the greatest drummers of all-time, YOU ROCK!
This is one of my favorite drummers in the world outside of John Bonham!!!
Aaron spears? No?
Sei sempre un mito Roger!!
Sad to see all the 70-80s legends growing old...
People who change this world becase they were so great I love Queen
Thanks, u are great drummer
Yes, twirl those drumsticks, Roger!
Very good Roger.... I loved this ... most interesting. Thanks ...
