    People on here are criticizing Stanleys time during the song, but if you listen, you’ll find the recorded track is all over the map. It’s impossible to play accurate time to this. He does a remarkable job in spite of this.

      I mean its a solo too, so what about timing the entire time. The complexity of the snares, toms, and cymbals, made drum solos interesting again, and not even a click track on the solo, solo was more like a song, killer beats!! I dont read music, so it sounded pro. to me!!

      How DARE a drummer criticize another drummer when they display awful timing. Keeping time isn't important for a drummer anyway.

    • @jaymeramirez7435

      Listen closely. His timing is straight. The timing of the keys gets off. He’s locked in with the bass. It’s there. Listen. Stevie’s part is off. 🤷🏿. And that being said. Sounds incredible STILL!

      His main snare is tight like a martching snare. I do not like that as a main snare. That tight snare sound works for drum & bass, and hip hop. For funk and soul it doesn't work as to why he played mostly his side snare for the fat snare sound.

    The sound of the drums themselves is f'ing amazing. Ideal sounds. Snare with so much crack, so much fullness in the toms without losing attack, and the bass drum just filling in the bottom, incredible. The cymbals are balanced and clean, but those drums sound ridiculous. Not to even mention the playing, which is straight burnin'.

    • @sanityinaseaofmadness7353
      @sanityinaseaofmadness7353 5 років тому +5

      The mid-range is almost completely absent, which kills the warmth of an almost assuredly beautiful sounding kit.
      Sorry, this was a great performance, but as a drummer who's heard himself recorded poorly zillions of times, I hafta disagree with your comment. It's a video in which drummers can hear what's being played, but the drum sound isn't great.

    • @joshmckay5815

  • @RorRiiZzLE
    @RorRiiZzLE 4 роки тому +1

    Stanley is one of my all time favorites and has inspired my drumming tremendously, being that I’m not even 2 years in yet. But, is it just me, or does this version he’s playing here, of Superstition, sound like it has a lot more toms involved in the fills and he’s added even more spice n flavor than normal besides the toms versus when he plays it with Stevie.
    That’s just the opinion of my ears though, I could be way off and he played it all the same besides once he passed on from Superstition.
    Either way, he’s a drummer you can learn a lot from, especially if you check out his whole story and how he approaches a lot of his craftsmanship.

      To be honest with you, I was twice as hooked to his drum solo than the first 5 minutes. Don't get me wrong, the first 5 minutes was awesome, but his musicality truly blossomed in his solo. It's like I really got to know him once he soloed. I personally felt that if he was going to solo with a groove like that, he could've just cut the first 5 minutes down to half and start sooner...

    I'm not a drummer and these are genuine questions. Is Mr. Randolph's kit set up in an unusual way? It almost looks as though he took a set and divided it in half, with half on each side of him. And are his hi-hats directly in front of him? With that second snare to his left, he looks like he's playing open-handed, but is he? Can some drummers out there help me understand what I'm seeing? Thanks!
