My teacher, my mentor, my good friend...Always picked up the phone, eager to talk and direct...I miss this guy.
You were in the right place at the right time to have him in your life! I watched the VHS in the early 90s that was probably already a few years old, and I got to get an idea about his temperament and technique and what was speed and wasn’t speed and relaxation etc… but 😮 seeing him play at the start of this video was exceptional! He seemed like a really nice guy too!
I have the notes Jim is playing from...He had me doing this stuff in the 60's....A true melodic genius....Ralph Onofrio
Jim (John) the Baptist for drummers! - Jim's enthusiasm is infectious- just great
The reasons today's drummers are so good is because they stand on shoulders of giants. Jim was one of those giants.
The man from Sag Harbor was an Icon of a teacher. The detractors here never met the man or had lessons from him. Nor have they studied his books in depth. I am no Steve Gadd or Dennis Chambers. I was a USMC D&B Corps rudimental drummer and also a USMC band drummer. This man had phenomenal technique. 7s and 9s at tempo with one hand. And more of course - with ease. Those who could never do - or never could see - do not know. He does not demonstrate his great technique or power technique here. In addition to being a great teacher - he was so much fun to be around. When he was "correcting" you or bitching you out about how you were doing something wrong when he was teaching you - even that put a smile on your face. Those who knew him know exactly what I mean. He was a Great and Beautiful man. There is a reason so many great drummers exalt him.
James, you are pathetic, the prove is in the cake, if I was playing that bad, I would never allow you to watch!
Lei - Sorry to to say, but you don't know shit. You probably think Travis Barker is the greatest thing since drums were invented.
Lei has such a bad attitude I can't imagine he'll live as long the great and joyful Jim Chapin.
James sholts....i couldn't of said it better buddy, i would give anything to be able to study with jim or any of the greats, people that disrespects him or any other drummers are delusional thay dont know shit about drumming or thay are the best in the world and have a finger or the whole hand up their ass. Jims speed is fast, joe morello also....morello was even faster than rich.
@@bonzoligist6330I took a few lessons in 96/97 from a guy that studied with Joe for many years and he did say if he wasn’t blind he would have had a career like Buddy’s. He did say he was on Buddy’s level. Jim is too hip. Such a cool guy. I remember watching his VHS in the very early 90s where I think he had a gray suit on with a tie and I studied his one hand technique a lot and the Moeller stroke, I’m not sure I realize you could play as good as he plays in this video though my God he killed it in the beginning.
RIP Jim, and thank you" for ever " in what you did for drummers around the world.
Thank you very much!
The Chapin' s legacy is so huge and important!
So, in the past we can find the rules to face the future!
Chapin had all the gears to face the eternity!
In the eternity He will rest!
WOW.....What a percussionist!!!! A Master drummer
the way he talks about moeller in his dvd and in here ... it is almost like he's a moeller's witness going door to door to convert people . lol ... love this guy
That would be hilarious if drummers went around to people's doors trying to convert them. Probably better than religion in some ways lmao
@@samtraygis1337 the knocking would speed up ooooohhhhhh
this is legendary. sounds super avant garde. people probably don't respect this style like they should...if you don't think this swings, fight me
Thank you Jim! Your book gave me fits in the 70's, but I got through it with my instructor. Cheers!
top lesson! pure gold!
Thank u MI this was 1 of the best things I ever watched.
omg im so glad this exist
an invaluable piece of education!! much appreciated! ❤❤❤❤
Jim was an awesome drummer and even better human being. His son was Harry Chapin ( Cats In The Cradle)....Jim's book was/Is the Bible for drum set independence. It is a must!
Wow dino ,I did not know Jim was Harry Chapin's father! I love UA-cam!!!!!!
My teacher, my good friend.... Unless he was on the road performing or giving these clinics,any time I was stuck on a lesson he would always pick up the phone.Always enthusiastic about anything drums..I miss this guy.
What a legend! A superior educator!
Fããã do mestre Jim Chapin .minha inspiração na bateria devo ao grande mestre Jim Chapin .hoje sou um baterista técnico graças a ele. Obrigado mestre Jim Chapin 🎼🎵💙💙💙💙👍 fã Brasil
Jim Chapin is one of the best drum teacher ever alive. I wish i could attend this drum clinic
Definitely One of the greatest teachers with the best hand technique. But to be honest he was more impressive on a practice pad. There are great teachers and there are great drummers. I feel that hand technique is just part of what makes great drumming. The actual musicality around the drumset is actually what matters most. Just listen to his greatest students, like Moeler and Jim. His students took his technique lessons and ran away with it and did amazing stuff surpassing that of the teacher. As a drumming influencer it's hard to think of someone greater. Perhaps there is Morello. But Jim and his book are forever written in drumming history. RIP Jim
I don't think I have ever even HEARD of this guy & he is amazing ! ! !
You heard of Dom Famularo and Jojo Mayer?
+einarabelc5
nope
Sweet hands🙌🏽 , met him at the Pasic in Philly years ago. Gave me a quick informed lesson on The Moller technique. I told him that I studied the Gladstone technique and he said he uses both
A beautiful man through and through.
I can now see why he is a respected teacher and very entertaining !
that was awesome. listening to jim play and sing that was the best!!!
thank you VERY much for posting this
His playing is decent. His technique is off the charts. Absolutely incredible educator. I use the whipping motion on accents and hold the stick with a loose grip because it's simply the most efficient way to play.
Great introduction by Mr. Chapin.
Studied his books - great stuff!!!
Pure Master...rip
Love that tuning.
Eita pegaaaa toop lembra-se bateras unidos jamais serão vencidos 🥁👍 mister Jim chapim
The man was a drumming "JEWEL"
I studied with him informally (we would meet at PASIC conventions and NAMM SHOWS and the like) and he would take me aside and want to see my progress since our last meeting! One time we actually had a "drum lesson" while we were standing up at the urinals at the Sheraton Universal Hotel during the 1985 PASIC convention there, just Jim & I "doing our thing", Jim had his "funky old "Real Feel" pad, on the ledge, next to the handle, and there he was, showing me the "finer points"of the (L. H.) MOELLER Tech.(had to be the left hand as our right hands were busy if you know what I mean!) and he was seriously demoing the tech, as I was mimicking the same on my pad! Most "unique" drum lesson I ever had! Just two guys (teacher & student) standing at the urinal, practicing MOELLER and taking care of business at the same time! If THAT'S not one for the books I don't know what is!!!! But that's how "into it" Jim was! (He) was totally dedicated to drums and drumming and imparting knowledge of same to anyone who would listen!!!!
HE IS MISSED!....(neal sausen) 03-16-18.
Yv
Sorry. Too much information.
@@jonnamechange6854 : not really! Obviously you cannot appreciate the uniqueness of that moment too bad!
Great stuff
Sensational!! Very informativ and entertaining. I love it! Thanks a lot for this video
Legend.
He's the biggest influence of your biggest influence's biggest influence.
I had the chapin book yrs ago. Cant find it & going crazy looking thru my stuff!!!!🙉🙉🙉
mann ist der da noch jung!!
The best
For me, Chapin is in the top 1-3 in stick handling. I mean drumset players, not snare-only drummers. Extremely rare to find someone with beautiful handling. I do think Keith Carlock is there with Chapin, though.
These MI Throwbacks are absolutely amazing, thank you so much!!!
Do you have Vinnie Colaiuta's clinic somewhere in that vault?
That would be next level!!!
Медные,струнные,клавишные муз.инструменты - достойны самого большого уважения . НО УДАРНЫЕ это что-то особенное! Слух, чувство ритма,уважение к другим участникам оркестра ну и культура игры необходимые качества для барабанщика + высокая техника исполнения. Все это демонстрирует Джим Чапин! Спасибо,тебе,учитель!
The Great!
THERE ARE DRUMMERS WHO CAN PLAY MUSIC BUT NOT SOLOS THERE ARE THOSE WHO CAN PLAY SOLOS BUT NOT MUCH MUSIC
I met a guy who was a rudimental drum champion but useless behind a kit.
A GIANT!!
Master
I played drums because it's so cool.
i see a lot of negative comments about this guy .. what is wrong with you? .. his playing might not be as crazy as others but his vid is beyond informational and it tripled my speed many years ago ..
7 months? Just by doing "those things"? I dig it
He name dropped Simon Phillips!!!
Walt Johnson too who ever that is.
And Dave Weckl!
What a legend and a technician but I have to say that his performance during the drumset solo is very hard for me to watch. there was no music in it just explosions of advanced techniques. I don't think drumset was his strong point but man did he have killer technique.
rippin!
Bruce Cohen is an excellent drummer
great drum clinic mr chapin at mi hollywood cal any one know the year
1:03.15 : EPIC
Why would you just label him as a drummer? He was a master of education of drums.
Ever hear him play?
isso sim e tecnica grande jim chapin
I just realised the purpose of UA-cam.
Seems like there was a handout. Jim is watching it lying on his floor tom at 00:37:00. Is this still available somewhere? somehow? e.g. as pdf?
Christian Ertl i saw him in nottingham way back in 2003 (or something, he did have a handout , not a clue if he printed it but it was all basic rudiments with accents as youfind in mlst technique sections. however the point of his clinic was for first timers to moeller method and , if you are a noob like i was, changing your hands/wrists etc to flow means you need to go way back to basics.
I have it Christian Ertl, studied with him for over 3 years and knew him well. Find JazzDrummer Chris on Fb.
КЛАСС
Is this from his "Volume II" book?
1:03:15 EPIC
absolutely
Be happy with Half his speed.😂
46:30
Drum seminars aren't just about drums I feel like I'm watching philosophy as well lol
0:00
Heh, Zappa roadie at 2:34?
when was this?
My question too!
He mentions Jacob Armen being 9 years old. As Armen was born in 1982, I'd have have to guess this is 1991.
49:35
nice solo..... so structured but loose as well....
hmm
He doesn't have the same precision he has in his youth, but he still played better than most drummers ever will in their lives.
I don't know why he bothered with drums! He was such a great singer!!

What book are these exercises from?
Well the thing is that even in 1970, when I was 10 years old and started playing drums, the book you would get was Jim Chapin's book but judging from his picture on the cover, we figure he was already dead and gone or at least very old. But no kid in 1970 wanted to study that book. It seemed like studying drums with someone from the Lawrence Welk show or fron the Chamber of Commerce.
Even in the 70s. It was way different. then. Way fewer people ergo way less musicians. There wasn't a huge industry dedicated to every conceivable Niche and to the technical advancement of equipment. Drum sets sucked in general. it was hard just to find a good sounding cymbal because no one really had any examples to compare to know the difference. it hadnt necessarily been invented yet (or not) Making cymbals was for orchestras. Making good cymbals for a drum set was still virtually an accidental process.. So don't let get all nostalgic and tell you about the Golden Era of cymbals and how great old Zildjian cymbals were. Maybe one or two,if you were luckyl but it was rare to come across one.
rare!
Such finesse and control. This is drumming. Notice how Jim Chapin switches back and fourth from matched, to traditional grip if his sticks. No fumbling or spinning of his sticks -- showing off. He's not that type of drummer. He practices regularly to keep up.
Уже не используется такая техника акцента и постановка
This guy was a terrible player! Great hands, without a doubt, but knew absolutely f**k all about playing the drums. (Also, Charlie Watts could actually play and played a lot of jazz far better than Jim Chapin before he got the gig with the Stones).
I guess MI could care less about teaching people to run sound. This is pathetic!!!!
He is kind of a joke, did he try to learn from real drummers?
He taught so many real drummers!
Did you?
He is one spectacular drummer! What’s wrong with you?
