Even to this day, 17 years later, there is no one that has even came close to Jim. Mcwhirter, mcquillan etc are nowhere near the player Jim was. True legend.
Hello, I don't know where did you find this video, but I have directed it and this a illegal copy of it ! At least you should mention Point du Jour Production as the producer of this footage and my name as the director ! Please do it !
Your Language of Drumming is just incredible. Love what you have accomplished in YOUR Playing. Just can't imagine. YOU Sir have a NEW Fan. And if you will excuse me I am now going to learn how to KNIT.
Frog in the well, old 1812, and when johnny comes marching home are all civil war tunes. old guard prefers to take colonial music and add a modern twist, so at least the essence of it is there.
@Capacity2005 Well, that's nice...but don't misquote...I never slated any other drumming style, just individuals on this site who talk shit. I have done plenty of drumming myself and whilst I appreciate all drumming. I stick to what I say as being true that pipe band drumming is the most technical, hands down. There ain't an argument out there that could ever change my wind on that..
@maevealiciousawesome kilpatrick would violate niel peart...all top elite scottish side drummers would...stop dreaming. You and all your kit drumming fan club can say what you want...but scottish snare drumming is the most technical and with the most musicality on the planet - period. It is just that kit drumming has a million times bigger following, that's all.
@Ewolf98 Musicians wore off-set colors so they weren't shot if on the Field of Battle (British wore Red with White trim while the American Musicians wore Red with Blue Trim)
@FuckYouLetMeLogIn It's called Tradition and what this Country was based off of... I'm sure if you went back to the 1700s you wouldn't see soldiers throwing their Muskets into the Air and tossing them around... that would just seem stupid
@dj3ntz He is the best because he doesnt play like many other drummers to show off he plays in a way to compliment the music. And albeit it can be simple compared to other drummers what he does compliments the music brilliantly. Its the exact same principle that comes to side drumming. Jim Kilpatrick is amazing here yes. BUT the thing that makes him arguably the best side drummer ever isn't that. But his ability to compliment the music to an incredible standard.
@dj3ntz i am saying they are different styles and it is impossible to compare in their various types of drumming they are briliant which is undeniable! They are different styles thus kilpatrick may be a superior drummer in ability but barker is still a brilliant kit drummer and arguably the best kit drummer on the planet.
@idoruZe Comparing yourself with other drummers that you aspire to be like, I would call that progression. Obviously Jim and Travis are completely different drummers from completely different genres. I highly doubt either of them aspire to be like the other. What is the point of comparing something that is so completely different?
The uniforms looks strikingly similar to Royal Regiments of foot due to the blue facings. However, there are details that are not easily detected by novices the tell the difference. Yes, musicians coats are the reverse of their counterparts in the rest of the regiment, and all armies had different color facing indicating the region they were from. For example, during the revolution, for the US Buff was New England, Red was Virginia.
ok lets clear this non-sence as much as i hate Travis, this guy probably(not saying he isent) wont be as good on a kit as Travis but on the inverse Travis cant touch this guy on the snare. 2 different aspects of drumming. get over it its nothing.
