CobbTV is proud to present the most requested drumming style video for this channel, Jaki Liebezeit from Can. Thanks for watching 🤘 [00:00] Intro [01:05] Background [01:50] One More Night [02:33] Halleluwah [03:08] Soup [03:49] Cascade Waltz [04:26] Vitamin C [05:38] Paperhouse [06:53] Vernal Equinox [07:20] Outro

The thing I always loved about Jaki's drumming is that it's tight but never sounds robotic.

Klaus dinger from NEU! is another kraut drummer I highly rate, extremely tight.

I only got to see Jaki Leibezeit play once. Genius.

Amazing! The only person on youtube who actually shows how you play Halleluwah.

Jaki was a huge influence on another drummer you should feature in your personal style series: John Maher of the Buzzcocks. The secret weapon who could make tricky time signatures, motorik bears, and punk thrash groove so seamlessly. One of the most under appreciated greats

Jaki is my all time favorite drummer, and this video is killer. Thanks!

Thanks for doing this feature on my favourite drummer, Cobb. I feel that he doesn't get enough recognition. Also happy that you used my original request comment at the start of the video!🙂

I only recently discovered CAN a year or so ago. And the drums definitely stood out to me. There were a couple of other candidates I had for your style videos. Zach Barocas of Jawbox, Peter Edward Clark aka Budgie of Siouxsie & the Banchees, and Sigtryggur Baldursson of the Sugarcubes. The one thing all three of these guys have in common is they love incorporating the toms into their grooves. Especially Barocas, stock beats do not exist to this man. So inventive. Love the channel by the way. I have been playing for 30 years and I still learn something new with your videos.

YES!! Love your channel, Jaki is one of the greatest ever. RIP

Watching this made me realize how much Thee Oh Sees' drums are influenced by Can

Vitamin C! awesome

great video! Also I I really like the sound of your kit in general. I'm hearing it through youtube but the deadness of the snare is very satisfying.

Woo I made it into the video! great video, did not realise thats what he's doing in Soup

I love CAN! Awesome!

Awesome vid!!! This dude was such a good and underrated drummer

thank you for doing this! love your style of videomaking

ALSO do you look like Damo Suzuki in this video on purpose???? 🤣🤣🤣🤣💚💚💚💚

0:00 your Vitamin C !!

Great video and great playing my man! I really enjoy your content. How about one on the playing and style of Peter Criss? Very underrated player and student of Gene Krupa. He is the reason I started playing drums !

Dude, this was dope. I’ve been diving into jaki drumming, and I figured you were a fellow morris fan by the closer shirt. Well done, your playing is tight.

YESSSSSSSSS IM STILL SITTING THROUGH THE ADS BUT YESSS IVE BEEN WAITING THANK YOU COBB

Jaki is my favorite drummer of all time. I wish you could make a video about Jon Theodore with The Mars Volta. Greetings from Mexico City

thanks, love Can, also love your Joy Division shirt ;-p

Thank you!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Never clicked so fast

jaki the boss

You gotta do Steven Perkins of Jane’s Addiction

Good Work! Very little footage of this magician is online. And the Material with Bernd Friedman is not first Choice, in my personal ears.

Damn good job!

OH HELL YEAH

Dude sick

He was the original human drum machine. I wish you would have included Future Days in this because his groove for it was great.

Lovely stuff although only a part of the story. Very few drummers truly "get" Jaki - I've heard endless KZfaq recreations of his playing. Whilst many absorb the patterns there is also the "dose" as Michael Karoil coined it: each hit is weighted with a precise touch which most people miss. You can hear this in Mother Sky - to the untrained ear it sounds like a linear beat, rigidly held, which is something in itself, but the snare hits rise and fall like a giant sine wave. There's also the drum tuning and adaptation which was a lifetime's work - in the end, he favoured rope tensioning (he also removed the acorn from the end of his drumsticks and ditched hi-hats "a Charleston machine"). Additionally, recording quirks such as swinging mics over the kit in real-time were sometimes used which is part of why his take on, say, Vitamin C sounds so unique.

Maybe do one of these for John Marshall from Soft Machine. The song Peff has a pretty crazy beat to break down.

Awesome vid! You should do some argentinean drummers as well like Pomo Lorenzo, Oscar Moro or Charly Alberti, all very good and highly underrated

The greatest drummer of the 1970s

After reading both CAN and Jaki Liebezeit biographies, I came out not 100% convinced that the "you must play monotonous" dude happened during CAN as we all believe. I think it actually might have happened shortly before CAN because at that time Jaki was playing free jazz where all sense of rhythm had been dissolved, and when he showed up to the audition Irmin expressed concern about this, to which Jaki explicitly replied "oh no, my days playing free jazz are over!"

Thank you! Pls review Drumbo (Captain Beefheart drummer)

Jaki has gone newborn to live when he cancelled the swing. And he never played Jazz-style again!

i would say the song Spray also has very abstract drumming

sir, you MUST do a video on Bill Bruford

His name's actually pronounced 'Yaki'.

Did Jaki use a double bass drum pedal?? I didn't think he did... Great Video! Absolutely Love CAN! This was great!

Chris Cutler

You should do Matt Helders from Arctic Monkeys soon, I swear he’s built different

You gotta do Greg Saunier from Deerhoof!

can you do Josh Dun drumming style?

LFG

Now do Ziggy Modeliste!

bill brofurd next??

Sam Fogarino from Interpol please!!

Billy Cobham

Well shit. Don't you know your Can 🎉
