Biggest lesson from Ronald Bruner : Never being afraid of failure
💯💯💯💯
I'm 46 and still struggling with that one.
tell me why the last couple days i’ve been going back into a ronald bruner rabbit hole, THEN THIS DROPS.💀😭😭 that’s manifestation booiiiii
haha you pulled it out of us!
Someone needs to redo this interview, of how he LOST all his gigs 😂
Whole freaking atmosphere this dude floats in is so talented. I am so inspired by them all
Their community is definitely blessed!
Thank you so much Elmo for creating a place to learn from such legends!! looking forward to more content like this
Our pleasure Joshua! Episodes coming every week 🙏🏼
I’m extremely grateful for this interview. It gave me such fantastic insight into one of the more fascinating characters in the music world, as well as one of the greatest to ever play the drums.
Beautiful, real, human times before the social media shit. Social media might kill the core of humanity, indeed. It already affected big time how people communicate, feel and make descisions. And that's pretty powerful already.
Awesome comment
Would love to see thundercat on the next one
Let him know!
love you bro, your papa and Thunder Cat. Nothing but love for you all.
These boys got good genes. Him and Thundercat looks like they're in their 20s
the bruner family seems to be like the modern age wootens.
Great point!
Tony Williams /Bill Cobham-Dennis Chambers-
Ron Bruner Jr.
Legacy.
Elmo, such a great podcast to get to know all these musical beasts!
Thanks! We're glad you're digging it! Make sure to check out the Go WIth Elmo UA-cam page for all new episodes
The Jazz was Smooth and Creamy. haha! Thanks for the great Interview.
I gotta start waking up like that
Everyday is a new chance!
Great dude. Played with him. He will "F" with the time to mess up the band. Ya gotta count when playing with him.
Great chat guys! Best wishes from Croatia 🌈🙌🏻
Such an incredible drummer.
The best?
@@jammcard definitely in the conversation. Deantoni parks, Jon Theodore, and Yussef Dayes are high on my list.
@@G4LPodcast to each his own, but no offence....Jon Theodore and Yussef Dayes are definitely NOT in the same conversation of Deantoni Parks and RBJ, these two are not even on a differente league...but on a different planet. What Ron and Deantoni were able to do in their career is so unconventional, complicated and crazy that it is difficult to explain in words...they set the bar higher and higher performance after performance to the point that the only ones they can compete with are themselves.
Jon Theodore is a very good rock drummer, Yussef is good but nothing remarkable to me.
@@thedrummerscorner1 nah Jon Theodore is way more than a rock drummer. The stuff he did on Deloused in the Comatorium, Amputechture, and Frances the Mute is pretty complex. When it comes to Yussef he may be the least complex but he creates pockets that are unique and groovy.
@@G4LPodcast Jon Theodore hasn't played that kind of music for almost 20 years now, he's more a rock drummer than anything else (his career says it).
nobody is on Ron’s level. All time he’s the greatest easily. Forget the legends he passed them up easily 🐐🐐🐐🐐
Part of being the greatest is the type of person you are. A big part of THAT, is humility. Whether or not someone is better than u, appreciate what they do and where they are on their journey. Bruner is amazing, but I don't see / hear him throwing dirt on greats' names like you just did
@@parist2732 whose names did i throw dirt on? he’s the greatest ever. i don’t care what nobody say
@@Joshstix95 🤣🤣 ok then stick to being deaf and arrogant lol
@@Joshstix95He's great as are a lot of other guys but there is a history and community in drumming.
Respect and humility is important.
I still think Ron is the goat. I don’t see nobody that can hang with Ronald (skill wise) but you have a point
Thats true on what he said seriously❤
Next time with Justin Tyson please 🙏🙏🙏
On it!
Yesssss, Justin Tyson would be dope!!!!
@@jammcard should be easy now that he lives in L.a. :)) (even if he's constantly on tour with Glasper)
Man! A great dude! Can't wait to hear'em live one time...
you must!
I guess “Dennis Chambers” must’ve left the Earth. Or has been forgotten. Or they Never heard him. 😂
Me sitting at my work desk at home in -2 degrees Fahrenheit
RBJ: Ain't no chestnuts roasting on an open fire in LA during Christmas. It's 85 degrees here.
unconventional asf - love the energy tho , himself despite of . love to this man - NO ONE is like RBJ .. he knows it tho 🫡🤝🏽
No one indeed
@@jammcard Absolutely nobody was like Elvin, Tony, Billy or Gadd etc when they came along. You've got to bring something new to the table if you want to be in that crowd. Imo
Ron 🐐
My fave drummer in this crazy ass world 🌎 🥁
Very Awesome Interview 💯
Thanks!
this is so fucking sick
Get jd beck on it pleaseeeeee
Noted!
U for getting Chris Coleman and the goat Eric Moore
🤩 practice to freedom
words of wisdom
Why is Orlando Brown on this cast? 😅
RRROOONNNNNNN! BEAST!
Last I checked Dennis Chambers is still alive…..
Cool
*wakes up* FHAWK
Dennis loves this cat
I heard it drectly
I love him too … 🫠
Same!
it's impossible to not love Ron
Lookin like Orlando brown😂😂
Phew what a force of nature this dude is. I do not even have 0.000005% of the drive he has lol. I guess that's why I'm bootycheekz at the damn drums
“R U sure?”😮
BEst drummer in the world, drinking the best ginger beer in the world :p
Music isn’t sports so it’s hard to say he’s the greatest by some stats. I think in skill terms he’s absolutely one of the best to EVER do it yet I think so is Tony Royster, Eric Moore, Thomas Pridgen etc. if he’s the greatest to you than that’s legit and respectable! He’s not my fav but I’m not delusional lol he’s him no doubt and I’ve learned from him in the interview. ✨💯
They sell Bundaberg ginger beer in the U.S. it seems
💙💙
Lately he been acting up a bit. It happens tho
I love him but there is NO greatest drummer alive. Art is about feeling, emotion. R Moe Tucker, Ringo Starr the worst drummers alive or is, or is it Jdilla the best non drummer to make drum beats or is Mick Fleeetwood a great drummer, or horrible? Jimi Hendrix the greatest guitarist or is bob Dylan who influenced him..There is only ONE BILLY COBHAM..
Some of the best when he played with Allan Holdsworth.
I wonder if he’s related to Orlando Brown because they act and kind of look alike
31:45 somebody mix that
Getting picked up by Jeff Porcaro is my wet dream.
Greatest drummer alive? Even if we are take professionalism off the table, there are other drummers who can play.
I can name 3 right now: Mike Mitchell, Xavier Ware, and Mason Guidry, and I'd out them all up against RBJ doin what he does.
Yes he's super talented, but he's not the only one in the world, and the others will show up to the gig on time and do what they are being paid to do.
CHAKA NOT SHAKA
either/or really
