This has always been one of my favorite fusion songs. They usually played it a lot faster than this though. This song in particular gets really intense when it's faster.
Yep, and I've seen him with Vic and Mike Stern at Blues Alley in DC. Dennis is one of my few influences of whom possesses no formal educational background; he's just that damn good.
Everyone speaks about Sco. His music speaks for itself actually. The challenge of being a bandleader is to find musicians who elevate the bandleader's music. Clearly Scofield succeeded in spades. Like is former bandleader Miles Davis, Scofield has also done his part to unleash monster musicians onto the playing field. He paid it forward, big time. 🙌🙌👏👏🙌🙌
Wow! Make mines some words of a friend of mine: "Where/how this dude has learned things like that?" In Dennis' case, most of those 'tricks' he has invented them! He played here in Belo Horizonte 10 years ago with Mike Stern and people, including me (by all means), got really impressed with his talent and speed. Very nice.
Some people study music, some practice to proficiency, some are naturally gifted and can study, learn, practice, and innovate. Dennis is that last rare breed. What he was put here to do and he never disappoints.
The Scofield Gammavision/ Blue Matter albums in the mid 1980's were the baddest sounds going. Still holds up dam near 30 +yrs later.
27 Years Later and this is STILL The Sickest Shit since Buddy and Billy.
Every drummer should own the Serious Moves DVD!
One of the best contemporary drummers commenting on old footage of one of the greats. Love to see it.
This is a classic....period !
I love the this number and it's first class musicianship. Timeless!
still the best drum video on youtube
i much agree
Yes...love to play along with this track.
and its not close
Timeless music...
my favorite drummer
Your bad azz brother.

he also didnt learn rudiments, its all from the brain and why he sounds so unique
6:00 on forward... fuck me!!!! That's a drum solo with fucking GROOVE!!!!
And really nobody speaks about the magnificent John Scofield on guitar!!!!
For real. He and his compositions basically put Chambers and Grainger on the map...
A bad ass with no credit.

Of course... Sco ran the show. Chambers is a beast, but without Sco, there’d be no show!
Gary looks so cool when he's feeling the groove.. You can tell because he starts doing that sway thing.. Perfect example starting at 2:11
Oh yah, and I saw Gary Grainger perform with Paul Reed Smith (no Chambers though!) at a local music store - so good.
Dennis and Gary Grainger, but also Dennis!!! Wow!!!
SICK...so fluid and effortless while SO complex!!!
the entire band ssssmokin'.
esta musica le queda perfecta a DENNIS!!! genio total!!!
Naice !!
I have it on CD since I'm 8 or something (thanks daddy). ;-)
I'm a killer on the skins myself, let's just get that out of the way, That said, this is the most sick laying down of the kit in history of recording.
thanx for posting
❤❤❤
Dennis was born just a Total Bad Ass on Drums
it keeps grooving!! I have the book Serious Moves, but lost my Playalong CD. Someone who has it? :-/

Amazing...

Do you listen to the Greg Howe Extraction cd with Dennis and Victor Wooten Travis? If you haven't heard it I really recommend you go buy it today.
that lick he did at 6:19 was nuts!!!!!
Scofield rips it up in this!!!
Lucky you!
Que monstruo de baterista! Parece iluminati!!!
Always seeking for the sickest nasty bad ass syncopations......Dennis Rules
Chambers
I'm just curious: is the quality of the dvd like this? or is the audio and vido more synced?
HOLLY SHIT!
I love how Travis Orbin's comment is already on the top hahaha only after 5 hours

All I can say is WTF
Lost my shit at 6:00
Worst guitar piece from a "named" guitar player.
Unmusical.
