I saw Brian Blade with Wayne Shorter. The back and forth between him and John Patitucci was just absolutely mind blowing. I saw Tain at the Village Vanguard. He was so good, I went back the second night. I saw Marcus Gilmore with Chick Corea. He's just disgustingly good. He really stood out. But the modern guy that just absolutely floored me when I first heard him was Antonio Sanchez. I'd never heard anyone play or sound like him before that. Incredible drummer, musician and a really nice, humble guy.

Thanks, this great. When I was a young boy I was into Jazz Fusion via R&B in the 80's. It took a while to get into Jazz even though I could appreciate it. It wasn't until I heard Wynton's debut album that I became an instant fan of Jeff "Tain" Watts. My favourite of his playing is on "Knozz-Moe-King" from Wynton's "Think Of One" album. All the dynamics, the 'phat' kit sound, the production and his ability to Listen and Respond was a masterclass for any student. Legacy cemented.

Great list of drummers! In the past three decades, I think drumming has been the biggest change in jazz. We haven't seen much in the way of new harmonic language, but rhythms have evolved.

@arrjee9474 3 жыл бұрын

Absolutely right! That and sound ...

@garygomesvedicastrology 2 ай бұрын

I think (sorry for being negative here) that the stagnation or ossification of jazz is one of the reasons why jazz has shrunk in popularity. Rhythm can change a bit because it really isn't paid attention to as much by the gatekeepers. But, as I indicated in other comments, it's a rediscovery process moreso than a new approach. That's good, because at least the music is breaking self imposed barriers-but it's got a long way to go to reclaim lost ground.

@garygomesvedicastrology 2 ай бұрын

By the way, please don't take my comments as a criticism about what you are trying to do with your KZfaq channel or your educational endeavors. I think you are doing a great job in promoting and guiding drummers. I was just really upset by what I personally saw as jazz being turned into a set form, treating it like a classical form (when it already was a classical form) afraid of change. Drummers can lead the way to freeing jazz to a more explosively exploratory form that is constantly pushing forward. I have guarded optimism for the future, so I want to end my observations on a positive note.

Tains my dessert island drummer and even have a rocktagon to remind me of that. You give me so much to think about and other music to listen too and i really apreciate it. Yplaying a big part in my sons life too. When he is in the bath ( and my partner is at the gym ) i pretend that both nate smiths pop round to try my drum kit out and he loves it. It gives me an excuse to practice a bit. Thanks.

I don't think your video was tone deaf at all. Sometimes people come to your videos to escape the hell they live in. No need to mention. At a concert I saw with Wooten, Chambers and Franceschini, Wooten said, " I know a lot of people don't agree with whats happening in politics. I was talking about it one day to my brother and he said' Do you know who was king when Mozart was alive? Of course not, you're a musician and that's how you influence'." I felt that was very uplifting really. We are not politicians, lawyers, etc. We are musicians, and that's what we bring to the world!

Jazz musicians carry a heavy burden of building upon a musical foundation of rejection and moving the music forward to places were it will certainly be misunderstood by some of its own peers. But within this struggle these same musicians,composers and arrangers hope to become a voice or song to those who hear their beauty through the sacrifice. My prayer is for those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, may they be filled.
