Great Gift Ideas for Drummers imp.i114863.net/Gjzq5r
Vinnie Colaiuta created a very unique odd meter groove for Sting's song "seven days". Even though the song might let you expect a song in 7/8, the song is actually in 5/8, what's even rarer.
Besides the main groove itself, the song is packed with small little fills that make it super fun to check out and play on drums. If you've ever wondered what exactly Colaiuta is playing here: worry no more - Chris Hoffmann is here to tell you.

@@ChrisHoffmannTube I don't think to do a video of my drum exercises,because I'm not a professional,sorry! :D I am only a passionate! I will use your video for my exercises of the future,I love this song,and Vinnie Colaiuta is a legendary great master! Maybe his figure frightens me, in fact, because he plays very difficult rhythms, with an impeccable touch, for a self-taught drummer like me! And I've never seen any explanations from him regarding this piece, either. But you, here, make everything easier, thank you! :) Goodbye! ps.I have a basic set,composed by a Crash and a Ride. Instead of the Splash, I use a Crash (UFIP Vibra Series,17")

Beautiful breakdown of this challenging track. For people like me (drummers who don't have the expertise or extra time/patience to do the in depth analysis ourselves), this sort of thing is invaluable to learn drum parts I wouldn't ordinarily have the time to learn. I'd love something like this for the Jawbox song "Chinese Fork Tie". I understand it when I'm listening to it, but as soon as I try to play it, it all falls apart.

Man... Jawbox! The last time I listened to them was 20 years ago. I looked that song up, it's in 6/8, so like here but count to 6, not to 5. I'd skip the intro and start from after the bass joins, it's much easier to feel and count the 6s. Once you figure it out you'll figure out the rest.

Always a relief to have the score explained as it’s played rather than an approximation from a poor drum sheet. I’ve seen some that have a second kick within the bar and accordingly throws the whole rhythm mechanics out. Excellent focus on hi-hat accents shows this is using rudiments in an independent way with constant and varied separation from the core time signature; yes that Vinnie ‘feel’ is where you realise if you’ve ‘got it’ or just keeping time. Sting continuing with a more subtle ballad with all the chops Mr C behind the kit, can bring.

While personally for myself I've transcribed this and broke this down for myself somewhile ago... I couldn't even today imagine myself breaking this down for my own students as well as this gentleman does. Boy, even if his break down didn't alter my own findings, he altered how best I could teach it and explain it. A teacher of teachers is the value of this video. Atleast for me! I've no problem sending any students who request a lesson in this tune and it's odd meter, poly rhythm concepts to this video and this guys explanation. I'm impressed
