I feel like Bernard Purdie is the best feel teacher, it’s not too hard to find amazing teachers who can teach you the notes, but goddamn no one does it like this man when it comes to feel
This video is so great. Honestly should be used in therapy Its soothing Funny Groovy for real Bernard Purdy takes away the sting of almost anything life throws at you I would use it anytime feeling blue
Because the African slave diaspora were removed from their African roots you could torture & linch get rid of their Culture & put them in chains but you could not get rid off their soul is Called SOUL Music.. you will hear it in rhythm blues,Jazz, Gospel , Regae /Caribbean calipso Afro Cuban Latin, Samba music... It resembles dying on the cross for humanity & rising from dead you can't get rid of the SOUL 😊 Rewards to humanity with music is the love the world enjoys so people, if you're awakened to history it's beyond what you see ❤
Plenty has been said about his beat, but the way he lives inside the moment during those fills too!Nothing is planned out, just plays every note as it comes to him, he’s not really playing licks. And yet every note is always in the pocket. A good lesson but scary to actually try that as a drummer. You could fk around and get thrown out of the band! 😂
"...and as time went on, my sound became my rhythm..." just think about this statement and what it really means in terms of superior musicianship. He is always moving in between executing and listening back and evolving....saw him in Frankfurt on the Musikmesse (a convention), he blew everone away!
Reminds me of my drum teacher as a teen George Dunn he would scat and bebop just like BP. He must have been to one of these clinics. George was awesome tho!
