    I think the thing that impresses me the most is that while he basically plays god on the drums, and has a smile on his face while doing it, he is giving backup vocals/harmonies for Dave! It's mind-numbing just thinking about what is going on in that brain of his as he executes all of this in such brilliant fashion.

  • @burning4buddy639
    @burning4buddy639 8 років тому +2

    Carter is one of the few truly ambidextrous drummers around. Not only is he stylistic, perfect punctuation, great dynamics, and Dennis Chamber level funk, he switches from right hand to left hand drumming within the same 12 bar passages. He also manages to control his hi-hat splashes and closings with stick action as his left foot is occupied at the time. I had to watch this several times to listen to when I had to pay attention. So damn talented. Younger players really need to watch some serious hours of Mr. Beauford. When I was just a shaver I had Ian Paice, Bonzo, Aynsley Dunbar, eventually Neil Peart, and of course Buddy, but what Carter, Dennis Chambers, and Dave Weckel do is spectacular in off beat accents that I wish I could have heard him at 10, instead of in my 30's. Introduce your kids to him, and tell them it's ok to skip some of the DM vocal parts.

  • @chrismitchell45

    The first time I heard Carter play was when What Would You Say first came out. I was driving back to Galveston from Houston when the song came on the radio. I literally had to pull over on I45 so I could hear what the hell was coming out of my speakers! I was in my mid 20’s and had played drums professionally for around 5 or 6 years (can’t remember the exact year it came out) and had NEVER heard someone put accents where he was putting them in the groove. Not to mention the fact that the whole arrangement of the song and how Dave played the guitar was unlike anything I had heard up to then. And it was freaking incredible, I was thinking “how the hell did something this awesome make it to the radio!l?? Lol Anyway, what a difference it makes to be able to play open handed as well as your regular side. Vinnie will always be my favorite drummer but Carter is right behind him.

    • @drewper73
      @drewper73 8 років тому +4

      +Ramsey L It's not too late to learn the open hand technique. I don't use it but I wish I did. If u think about it, it makes perfect sense to play the drum set like that. Using your left hand to play the ride cymbal, which is to your left, opens up so much space for your right hand. If you're playing the hi-hat with your right hand using the close hand technique, it's really really hard to play anything on the toms with your left hand. However, if you're playing the hi-hat with your left hand using the open hand technique, you're free to do all kinds of stuff on the toms with your right hand. I can play simple beats using the open hand technique, like straight 8th notes on the hi-hats with my left hand and 2 & 4 on the snare with my right hand, but I can't play any kind of syncopated rhythms with my left hand on the hi-hat and my right hand on the snare. But I can learn, and so can you dude, if you want. Peace.

    • @thecoolestdad
      @thecoolestdad 8 років тому +1

      +drewper73 I am left handed and I play open handed just like Carter. I've played this way every since I was a kid, because I am self taught and no one ever told me differently. But I am dominant left handed so open handed makes sense to me. Everything is set as a right handed player, with my ride on the left, near my hi hats. I do all of what you said, I can do so much with my right hand on toms and snare and cymbals. Other lefties like Phil Collins and Ian Paice play closed handed with the hi hats on the right side and they roll right to left. I could never do that. I would not be able to carry the bass drum with my left foot. I'll stick to my open handed way.

    • @drewper73
      @drewper73 8 років тому

      +thecoolestdad I wish I had started out playing open handed. But I had seen drummers on tv playing the hi-hat with their right hand and that made perfect sense to me, a right handed drummer. It also felt right but that was before I had the 4-way independence that I have now.

    Dave Matthews Band is the band from my College years that I made fun of the fans around my hometown because they were always saying stuff like, "I'm going to see Dave this weekend." Or, "We're just drinking and listening to Dave, man". I never really cared much for their music, it just never really grabbed me. I'm more of a Tool fan. However, they are and always have been fantastic musicians and great at what they do! Imo, Carter Beauford is their bread and butter. The man is a joy to watch play! Respect!
