And play it again and again this man’s drumming is watching and listening to he has this arrangement down to precision and excitement more buddy please
Thank you! You’re one of the drummers who led me to play this type of music! I’m so glad you watched my video! And I take off the mask on the live stage!
@@MrCrazyGasMaskMan Thank you, bro. Glad to be an inspiration of 'old school' drumming. Keep it up my man. We need more younger players, like you, to Keep On Swingin. Most Sincerely, Randy.
Great to see you play another Buddy Rich Chart CrazyGasMaskMan. You did an excellent on on Away We Go and I saw Buddy play live many times that chart. Your left hand comping to the music is one of the hardest things to do in drumming in these type of demanding charts and you did an excellent job.. Wonderful feel for the music and of course that is the most important thing that a drummer must do.It`s not about doing just the horn hits,or knowing where the breaks are,but to drive the Big Band with your feel for the music.That is why rock drummers when they try this type of music has no feel for swing or jazz and it just sounds bad.But you being so young have a great feel for Big Band jazz. Learning from the best,Buddy Rich is why you sound so good.I know you were just copying Buddy`s solo,but maybe next time,just do something in his style and make it your own.I got to talk to Buddy many times about drumming and he always told me to just play how you feel and make it exciting. Here is a new video I just posted of my Ken Loomer Big Band doing the Buddy Rich chart "Just In Time" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L0Cbk-rexXg.html and in the drum break I played in the Buddy style but just made up my own drum break which most drummers would never do. This is an excellent performance CrazyGasMaskMan on Bugle Call Rag and so wonderful to see a young drummer playing Big Band music at a very high level.Have you played the Buddy Rich chart I gave you yet! Keep up the excellent drumming!
Thank you! I’m glad you watched this. You know, how i play and what I like is totally different from recent popular music so people here sometimes see me like weird guy. But I swear that I will learn from Buddy forever, even though what he left us are only his videos and his words. Well I think I’m not good enough yet to play the solo, making up my own. But hey, I try it when I play with my band. Sometime I could do it well, but sometime I mess it up too. So I copy his solos, just like remembering syntax when I study the language. I watched Just In Time! That is an awesome chart and I really wish i could play that in my band too! I really liked the little arrangement you make in the horn soli. We have gigs coming up on this weekend and we’ll play Apples you gave me for the first time. It was supposed to be in October but it was cancelled because of the huge typhoon. I’ll take the video of it and show you for sure!
Let me tell you CrazyGasMaskMan that you are good enough to do your own drum solo! Just play it in the Buddy Rich style which is to play how you feel and make it exciting. You have excellent technique and feel for this Big Band music. Here is a video I just posted of a drum solo I just did ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GyCWZm79r7c.html It`s in the BR style ,but I just tried to make it exciting and played what was on my mind. Every drum solo I do, I want to make it different since I always thinking of new ways to play. l look forward to seeing you play with a live Big Band doing Apples.You are a great drummer and I`m happy to call you my friend. RU-vid is so wonderful since I have meet so many wonderful people like you.
Thank you very much! I’m so glad that you tell me that. It gives me a lot of confidence especially from the people like you playing with actual big band of buddy rich style! The gig on last Saturday went pretty okay. I’m working on editing the video of Apples right now and I’ll show you as soon as I finish everything.
You are an excellent drummer my friend.One day when I go to Japan,we can meet.I look forward to that Apples video.I just did another Ken Loomer Big Band job and posted this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_Q40kq4zx9c.html Maybe this will give you some idea`s on how to do your drum solo. I`m 65 now and not slowing down at all.
