Thanks for these excellent lessons. I'm 86 and my meds have weakened me to where I can no longer make gigs. I have been a student of all the great drummers you teach from. I learned, as you suggest, by playing and listening to their records on the radio when I didn't have a record player. This is important, I believe excellent comping truly keeps things swinging. It pulls everything like a snapping rubber band. It's always in time, on time and gives the soloist ideas. I appreciate your teaching. You are showing off what a great drummer you are, you are teaching how to be a better drummer. With the bass player just thumping along, it's up to the drummer to keep it swinging and interesting
Ah man, you´re like a library for jazz drummers. I enjoy your videos, they´ve helped me a lot. You burn like hell behind the drums too, really inspirational!
I think you're one of the most accurate on explaining things and giving references among the online lesson videos i stumble upon on average. Such fine drumming too! Keep up the good work man!
I liked how once you started playing the triplets you started moving your head like Elvin Jones. I was blessed to see him at Yoshi's in Oakland before he passed. RIP- even though we're making him live for forever.
This guy wants nothing to do with Elvin Jones. He mentioned Elvin as if he understands Elvin. He rejects polyrhythm and he rejects Elvin. Modern Jazz drumming begins and ends with Elvin. I am a Berklee drummer so what up.
Man that time feel is epic! I'd love to hear you do a video just on how to play that slow and swing that hard. That's a deep challenge. Sounding great!
Quincy !!! You're the man ! ! ! THANKS ! Finally a useful drum Video with great and useful tips. And not just hours and hours of bla bla bla!!! I wish more people would make Videos of this instructional quality ! I had tons of fun applying your techniques .
Quincy..With all due respect to you your playing & teaching..I find that comping is directly related to what is happening musically within the group of musicians you are playing with!! Comping for me is responding & reacting to rhythmical phrases being played in piece of music or improvised solo!!...Learning to comp without practicing along with music can become mechanical and pattern based! I get inspiration by comping to jazz arrangements & jazz standards where you are forced to use your ears to play musically!!! Just wanted to offer some food for thought!!! Thx for allowing me to voice my opinion on your post!!!
Thanks for the comment truthbtold! The purpose of this video is to get drummers into the “house” where good comping lives. Too many drummers just play random arbitrary notes in the left hand with no thought as to what they are playing. These examples are just to get drummers to start thinking about what they are playing. Comping often IS indeed reactionary (as you stated) however, if a drummer is not familiar with the sound of Art Taylor or Max Roach’s (for example) comping, they will react using rhythms that frankly, get in the way of the soloist and the feel, as opposed to accentuating what’s happening musically. So this is a good place to start for those struggling with understanding comping. The next step would be to transcribe a master’s comping. But before doing ANY of this, drummers have to just listen and really pay attention to WHAT the these great drummers are playing and HOW they are playing it. Get it in the ears and soul and it will begin to come out in your (not YOU necessarily) playing.
My first thought as I watched the video was how important tuning of the drums are, Your kit sounds beautiful. 2nd thought was how well you verbally and physically articulated the grooves. Well done!
I've watched slot of drummers here on UA-cam and while many are technically proficient they leave me feeling a little flat. You've got a fantastic feel while capturing the technical aspects of master drummers. I look forward to watching more of your lessons.
Wow, this is the only book you need. Months of study. Thanks, If I ever get theses comps to sound good I will feel successful. Your other Q,s are amazing as well. Taught by a real drummer/ teacher. I do play well but this stuff will make you a real player.
You can also base comping patterns around rhythmic motifs in the tune being played. Frankie Dunlop with Thelonious Monk comps in a compositional manner. Roy Haynes, too. You will discover "new " comping patterns if you learn the melodies of the tunes. Big fun!
Hey Ed. Thanks for the comment. Very true! I should have mentioned this approach as well. I always have my students sing the melodies to tunes and comp for themselves. Btw, it was great to finally meet you and hear your wonderful students. I have great respect for what you as a musician and educator and I wish you all the best!
Great!! Im watching you from Colombia. I really like these lessons because I find a lot of mistakes in my playing and you explain in a simple way. Im really thankfull for your contribution
A very well thought out approach to jazz drumming.And very well articulated. The slow tempo really puts many of the syncopation in perspective. And you know your history.I'm very happy to see this, and drummers that even if they do not follow or listen to jazz drumming, can learn so much from a video like this. I'm very happy to have found your excellent approach. Stay well. Thx
Thanks Quincy, I really enjoy your videos. I switched to drums in January of this year after playing jazz saxophone professionally for over 30 years internationally as a soloist. Another point from that perspective is that as a sax player I was always listening to the drummer comp. The good ones played very melodically and always added "spice" to the overall sound of the set. Very important regarding the "Weave" factor when playing straight ahead jazz. What is the "weave" factor. It is the voice that each musician brings to the table creatively, making the composition flow with grace and clarity. Much respect, Tim Mayo
That's great independence-That ride is really playing its own thing and the snare and bass are comping the ride itself in the absence of saxophone, etc, etc...
Thank you Quincy for making so simple to understand what this masters of drumming did when comping. You have filtered and made comprehensible and easy to work with.
Never heard comping explained like this. Great lesson. I am learning to play bebop; love the music, trying to teach myself. Your lessons will help a lot. Thanks.
Excellent video. This was somethin I was trying to learn for the longest but didn't even know what the term for it was called. Thank you for making this video
clear, easy, essential, gentle... well done job man, thanks a lot. I do not play drums anymore (not enough talent and skills - fortunately I discovered I was much more better as a visual artist with waste material, where I put music into stuff) but was a pleasure still to learn new things for appreciate better the music I listen to.
Great lesson! If I may add, another book I found of great help to my comping was Studio/Jazz Cookbook by John Pickering. Very easy to read notations, and provides hundreds of exercises that will help your independence (left foot hi-hat, left hand and right foot bass). Also, it provides some ride variations! It complements (pun unintended) Riley's book really well.
Nice presentation and explanation of jazz drumming. What I found most important in your video is the way you highlight the Independence of keeping your left hand and right foot on the pedal free without loosing control or interfering with the ride on the "ping, ping ping, ping, ping ping" I'm still learning to control that, but it's very difficult, but I haven't intensively been practicing the jazz thing as much as I would like to, though I have a 1970 Slingerland kit that is begging to play some jazz lol. The book that I want to start with is The Art of Bop by Dan Thress, John Riley with 80 pages of glorious jazz essentials and charts! Yeah that is what I will start with since it has a audio cd included. Also, Jim Chapin: Independence for the Modern Drummer I heard is really good for even beginners. As for the rest of the books I have not heard of but I shall check them out as well. Again thanks for the tips and the book suggestions.
Nice stuff.. I thought I heard a little bosa nova thing on the snare around the 7 minute mark spanning two bars .. I love it. Also, kudos on the Ted Reed book. Lots of times I don't even open the book and just mess with those nice figures on the cover. I developed my meager skills at comping, bosa nova, bluegrass, and single stroke triplet accents using mostly just the cover from that book.
Hey Quincy. I really enjoy you lessons and learn a lot from you. you’re a very good teacher and a fantastic Musician. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
I'm a trainee jazz guitarist, but this info on limb independence is just as applicable to guitar. I'm currently trying to teach my foot to beat out constant walking bass type rhythm, while my picking hand and fretting hand play 'free time' phrases with the solid foot rhythm. This makes the free-time licks sound like they 'belong' with the main groove...
Thank you so much for this breakdown! As someone learning more about the details of drumming and jazz, this gives me so many great things to practice and listen for
I really enjoy watching all your videos Quincy!!! They're some of the (if not THE) most serious, interesting, valuable, packed with information and knowledge videos on jazz drumming here on youtube. Keep them coming bro!!! Yorgos
Excellent video- you play with a great feel. That ride cymbal is fantastic- the overtone sounds like rain on a tin roof, helped by the rivets, of course. Glorious!
The info part was so useful, even more than the drumming itself, thank you for including some history and so much info into de videos. it would be great if you left the subtitles a little longer for us slow readers, really inspiring thank you
Great video, excellent playing. You do a great job recommending the seminal books on independence and researching/identifying albums and players that showcase each technique. I also appreciate that you focus on the sound and groove as the end and the skill as the means rather than just the skill.
Fantastic! I'll take all this to heart in practicing. It makes me happy that I know a few more of those albums that you recommended than I did a couple years ago (haha.) Great stuff!
Hi Quincy, I just found your site from The 80/20 Drummer. Hello, and thanks from a fellow Canadian! Great material and great explanations - I have to catch up with your other vids!
Quincy! I enjoyed this a lot. I am trying to learn the fundamentals of jazz drumming although I have played drums all my life (including some jazz band stuff in school). I have always felt like I lacked the basics though, and I always try to start playing new stuff from the top down. I thrive more on the bottom up approach like you teach. Very helpful indeed! Wish I could be one of your students buddy!
Thanks much, very well done and explained. Happy to hear you are an A.T. fan as well. I don't think he got the attention he deserved because he spent a huge portion of his career in Europe.
Terrific lesson(s) there, professor! Going to grab the Chapin independence book (again!), and get into those great comp expressions. BTW...incredible cymbal sounds. That ride is filled with so much tone...and the hats have a real nice 'chick'...they look like 15's or bigger (and thin, too methinks). Nice job Quincy.
Quincy, thanks for this video. My six year old daughter and I love Max Roach - he is our all-time favorite (she also loves Stewart Copeland :). Love your approach - especially providing history and context - makes one appreciate the music and the work behind it. Will check out your book recommendations. Would also love to hear your thoughts on Joe Morello's comping - he's also outstanding.

Do you always comment yea buddy!?
@@TurtleTurtlez I see the conundrum you're setting me up for. The answer is...

I have learnt more from this lesson than 20 from yours!

Love your video!
Yea! Keepin' the art of comping ALIVE!

Finally a useful drum Video with great and useful tips. And not just hours and hours of bla bla bla!!!
I wish more people would make Videos of this instructional quality ! I had tons of fun applying your techniques .
+Dominique Junker Worndli Happy you're finding my...Q-Tips helpful Dominique!
Quincy..With all due respect to you
your playing & teaching..I find that comping is directly related to what is
happening musically within the group
of musicians you are playing with!!
Comping for me is responding & reacting to rhythmical phrases being played in piece of music or improvised solo!!...Learning to comp
without practicing along with music
can become mechanical and pattern
based! I get inspiration by comping to
jazz arrangements & jazz standards where you are forced to use your ears
to play musically!!! Just wanted to offer some food for thought!!!
Thx for allowing me to voice my opinion
on your post!!!
Thanks for the comment truthbtold!

Again, again... Frank Dunlop's art of comping snare and bass! Best from Buenos Aires.
I'm not sure what your point is but yes, Frankie Dunlop! Love him. My favorite album with Monk of Frankie's is Monk's Dream.
Great great lesson. I liked in particular breaking down the basic patterns of Blakey, Taylor and Roach. I always try the same as a starting point.
Love this guy's playing. Quincy Davis = Thanks for this free lesson. I will carry the exciting lesson on.
My word, this is an absolutely fabulous lesson! many thanks Professor Q!
Congratulations! It's a very clear vision of evolution on drums in 9 minutes!
High quality everything. Down to the ease with which you explain things. These videos are helping me immensely. Thank you.

Wow, this is the only book you need. Months of study. Thanks, If I ever get theses comps to sound good I will feel successful. Your other Q,s are amazing as well. Taught by a real drummer/ teacher. I do play well but this stuff will make you a real player.
I'm not a drummer but a guitar player, but your videos are very useful to understand the rhythmic concept of jazz.
Please keep uploading more videos.
You can also base comping patterns around rhythmic motifs in the tune being played. Frankie Dunlop with Thelonious Monk comps in a compositional manner. Roy Haynes, too. You will discover "new " comping patterns if you learn the melodies of the tunes. Big fun!

Great!! Im watching you from Colombia. I really like these lessons because I find a lot of mistakes in my playing and you explain in a simple way. Im really thankfull for your contribution
Beautiful little lesson there Quincy. Especially the issue of accents !

Your videos are great for both experienced people as great tools and reminders of basics; and also so clear for beginners
Thank you very much for your teaching and generosity.
Never heard comping explained like this. Great lesson. I am learning to play bebop; love the music, trying to teach myself. Your lessons will help a lot. Thanks.
I can see that you are a great teacher. This was so basic, yet important to check out! Thanks a lot!
Very useful and well explained examples. Will include these in my comping arsenal!

Great video, one way to improve it would be to add screen shots or insert slides with the patterns written out. Thanks for posting these ideas!
Nice video & also The Jim Chapin book mentioned is phenomenal. Highly recommended for all jazz drummers.
Right on!
This was a super informative video! Really changed my idea of what truly goes into comping. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
great recap. Helped me organize all the comping I have studied. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. I have heavy hands, this will help for sure.
Great video, excellent playing. You do a great job recommending the seminal books on independence and researching/identifying albums and players that showcase each technique. I also appreciate that you focus on the sound and groove as the end and the skill as the means rather than just the skill.
+Joseph Spadafore Thanks Joseph!
Quincy that was great sound knowledge.
Great sound and beautiful playing! Thank you very much Quincy
Great stuff, simple ideas but since they are rooted in tradition they will make you sound authentic! Thanks for the lesson! Peace&Groove!
Man, this video is INCREDIBLY valuable! Thank you so much for that
You are incredible at explaining things! You are the man!!
thanks for explaining so well , looking forward to more jazz drumming tips
Cool. Glad I've found a great jazz drum teacher
Great video on jazz timings and rythm. Good book to add would be buddy rich's modern interpretation of rudiments
Good with slow tempos to better understand the rythmic patterns in left hand and right foot. Thank you.
Thank you for that,very clear description .Food for thoughts and Action on the Kit
Fantastic! I'll take all this to heart in practicing. It makes me happy that I know a few more of those albums that you recommended than I did a couple years ago (haha.) Great stuff!
