Honestly...that was the greatest "human" lesson I've ever seen via my phone. It felt like I was in the room with Greg. Thank you so much for this
no need for quotation but if it were necessary you would close them after 'lesson'. Anyway, I agree with you; feels like an old-school DVD lesson.
I guess it's subjective lol I hope you don't take me as a dick
Yes, this was an amazing seminar for all musicians, dancers and teachers. I would like to hear his ideas on right hand stick holds.
I like how he says one too you know what to do
Fantastic lessons!
I "walked the dog" and now I have to pick up the........
👍👍
I love jazz. Play piano and alto sax but love the technical lessons of other instruments. You get a holistic feel.
"Walk The Dog" I just learned, is a upgrade for me from "Spang A Lang." Thanks and Blessings Greg!
Great lesson! It lays out the swing pattern musically, and emotively. Walk the dog not only captures the pattern, it captures the mindset when playing the pattern in a welcoming manner. Bravo, Greg!

I really appreciated all the different camera angles. Very informative. That one of Greg's arm from the side surprised me with how still his arm actually was; so controlled while so relaxed.
Marvelous drummer and teacher!
Outstanding lesson. Simple and informative. Thank you.
Greg Hutchinson is anOutstanding instructor
Beautiful!! Hutch gave a perfectly simple explanation of conceptually playing the ride cymbal. . It's all attitude, feel, spacing, and most of all, SWING!! 🙏🏾🎶
Probably the best lesson I found about this. So simple and clear, thank you so much Greg and everyone involved with the channel.
Ahhhh...those Paiste Masters look beautiful
Wonderful. Thank you
This was so helpful and so educational. I feel like I can communicate everything he said to my students and improve their overall playing but most importantly, their feel. Thank you!
One of my favourite drummers -- and what a teacher. Love it
What a beautiful ride cymbal
If you listen to the album "Live at the Loa" by Ray Brown Trio, you'll hear someone shouting "walk that dog!!!" to Jeff Hamilton throughout the album. Wonder if that was Ray Brown or Gene Harris shouting that?
Thanks Greg and Open Studio!
Nicely done, Greg! Thank you...
Greg, thank you. So good, so generous with your teaching. 👍
So many great lessons going on here. Thanks
Perfect lesson. Thank you! Love the left hand too. The way you break up the comping pattern under the ride pattern. Gotta work on that!
This guy makes a student excited about learning.....he's a natural.
Bam. Presentation by a great instructor. Thank you. A+ teaching.
Listening to your video took me back to my teens. Specifically playing one of the first song I learned, “I Hear A Symphony” by the Supremes … that song walks the dog all day long! Lol Thanks for the memory! 😎👍🏻
I always recognized that drumming is a form of language and how you “pronounce”, “tell the story” via instrument is all what it is about. It’s like reciting a poem. You can tell it flat, or you can have listeners follow you.
But I never linked specific patterns to specific phrases. Thank You Greg. This is huge lesson
These Open Studio lessons are great.
This lesson kicks ass but damn, your ride is the stuff of dreams. Thank you and have an awesome day, man.
Incredible teacher
Really well done and easily explained.
Great lesson man thank you
Learning it as a Para Diddle Diddle triplet helped articulate it for me. RLR RLL. Right hand on the ride. Left hand ghosts on the snare.
Para Diddle Diddle.
R (L) RR (LL).
Walk (ra)the Dog (diddle)
RLR RLL
maybe the best explanation I've heard, and I've heard a bunch!
Beautiful!
breathes and dances
Thank you ! Great lesson!
This ride sounds amaizing
Love this video ~ my drum teacher taught me this when I was a teen who wanted to play like Phil Rudd ..
my teacher was a Charlie Watts / Steve Gadd / Dave Weckl fan and thankfully taught me foundations ..
Ian Oddy ~ thank you ~ I’m a big fan of Jazz at this stage in my life ..
🙏🏼🎶🇦🇺 🥁
Best lesson ever!
Thanks
Great lesson! Thank you very much!🙏
I picked up a trick from the great Billy Cobham the five stroke roll is "walk the dog" as far as the right hand is concerned (left) if your a lefty, the five stroke is a very handy tool around the kit many thanks Greg
you are an amazing instructor, thank you
Thank you for your teaching
Great lesson!
Fantastic lesson, 🙏
This is great, thank you Greg Hutchinson and Open Studio!
Excellent, thanks Greg. 🙏!
Great vid! Thank you.
Good too see you again online Greg!
Thank you for the lesson! From a beginner drummer here!
I enjoyed your video. Great presentation!
a good lesson and a good teacher , thanks from texas.
This is brilliant!
Great lesson
Amazing and valuable video, thank you 😊 🙏
Such an uderated lesson.❤❤❤
Great video, so helpful. Thank you.
Excellent lesson. Using phrases to time beats and fills is a powerful tool. In India, they teach the beats as chants.
Immediately connecting with the walk the dog phrase.
I was never really taught this phonetically, it was always the specific rhythm of the thing, or listening to examples.
At most, maybe we heard a "tang, tanga tang"
Very interesting stuff!!!!!
Or spang-a-lang
you are a great teacher
That is fantastic!
really great. thank you
Thanks man from Athens Greece 🇬🇷
Excellent!
Thank you!
Amazing!
nice man!...good teacher..
Okay, just before this video from Greg I watched a video from Peter Erskine, exactly on the same topic. And there Peter emphasises that he does not play the jazz ride pattern as "a three-note grouping". So, forget 'walk-the-dog', forget 'spang-a-lane'. And here we have Greg, teaching just that. I am convinced by Peter on this one. The walk-the-dog doesn't actually teach us the rythmic structure of a swung eighth note bar. The actual bar is: 'walk, walk-the-dog, walk-the', which in proper counting corresponds to, 1, 2, and3, 4, and. The off-beat notes (last notes of the triplet) of 1 and 3 are silent, but they can be played. Walk-the-dog doesn't give that rythmic awareness of what you actually playing. Greg in demonstrating the technique actually starts from 2, leaving the note 1 out, so he plays 2 and3, 4 and1. And that's exactly the problem with walk-the-dog. Peter advises to start with even quarter notes and then add the off-beats as pick-up notes leading to the next quarter note. Start even but you can acent 2 and 4, or the offbeat notes, Elvin Jones style. So, forget walk-the-dog. I am suprised why Greg teaches that, being a fantastic drummer.
Interesting observation. I agree it doesn't really demonstrate rhythmic structure very well but I feel like the point of this clip is more about demonstrating how it should feel.
Very helpful
Thanx, Greg🌹🌹🌹😎
Excelent tips.
Lovely stuff
Stellar. I've just subscribed. Cheers!
Thank You Greg
I like that, it is right.
To go alongside in movement to be affable to dance ❤
Very nice Greg. Thank you.
Awesome!!!
Listen to that ride cymbal on Henry Mancini's Pink Panther theme. That's a great lesson in how to swing!
I like this guy.
I got so into this that I forgot to literally walk my dog...
Great lesson, the explanations and the vibes are so cool and easy.
I have one question , from Walk the dog, you may think that Walk is the first note of the bar, yet when you play it, with notes, it seems that Dog is the first note of the bar!
I can't unhear it lol
love it!!
Grande Greg!
Superb...
This guy splains it in great detail for beginners
AMMA SPLAINITOYA!
Dude… nice… thanks!
that ride cymbal is godly
Sweeeet! Thank you.
Bravissimo.
Sooo much easier the spang-a-lang, thank you!🙏🏻
Love it
Superb lesson, where did the comping transcription come from... So jazzy I love it 👍🤔👀
I think the most important lesson of this that is not explained is that THE/DOG is a double that he is playing as a down wrist stroke followed by an up finger stroke. (learn this from double stroke rolls)
Very nice! I need to find a bass instructor like Greg.
"Walk-dog" pronounced as long as possible. Only add the "the" - the bump - occasionally.
Cool!
EPIC!
Great👍
Thats why i like jazz, i can ride all day long
Marvelous :)))..... its like ...leng speng a leng speng a leng....
yeah i agree with most of the comments here, this is a great tutorial!
