Thanks so much for this series with Jeff Hamilton. I'm 62 yrs old and never stop learning. I could listen and learn from him all day long. Thanks again

Indeed, Jeff's become one of those masters himself. Love this informal, honest type of interview.

What a great, open guy, who is so willing to share his knowledge and experiences; seems like a true gentleman, and music ambassador...

Immensely inspiring! I've been fortunate to work with Jeff, and see him at several clinics and performances. He's probably the most knowledgeable person about big band drumming on the planet.

BIG thanks to Jeff, there, for sharing a few choice nuggets of wisdom any instrumentalist could take to the bank.

Great series and Jeff is one of the very best drummers ever. I was lucky enough to see him perform with Woody Herman in the 70´s and with LA4 in my little hometown, Linköping, Sweden! Since i play drums myself, or at least try to, Jeff has been a major influence for me in trying to play drums and especially with the brushes.

Awesome video. The power of an upbeat and very positive attitude is everything. Sprinkle in some humility and love if history and it’s over the top.

My school was lucky enough to have the count basie band come to OUR dinky little highschool in nowhere new york, and that started it for a lot of people.

Love what Jeff is saying about having the word lucky! H also mentions a few unsung heroes very worthy of note,Matt Wilson and sonny igoe. Great players. I met and heard Matt Wilson a few years back at BIRDLAND and he is a great player!

An insightful and meaningful interview, capturing fascinating technical history, along with touching sentiments. I guess, come to think about it, that summs up JH and it shines though every beat.

I want to have a practice pad nearby on my last day! (well, technically, now I'm loving the universal practice tips but, hey! who knows what we'll have at that time :)
