Dennis Chambers "What Is Hip" | Zildjian 400th UK 

I’m just so happy he is healthy!! Love you DC!! Keep taking care of yourself!!!

It's a joy to see and hear Dennis Chambers, especially playing Tower of Power

What a tight groove and solid drumming! DC, one of the all-time greats!

Dennis is looking really well. Massive fan of his playing.❤

The set looks to be a birds eye maple, and I love the attack but still has tone. What a wonderful beauty of a set, and it is being played by one of the best drummers in the land.

Rock solid musicality sat right in the grove, no over playing. Perfection.

Hats off to Zildjian for the modest balance of their cymbals in the mix. They were shown as the perfect accompaniment for the groove Dennis was playing. Dennis could've filled with all kinds of rolls, crashes and heavy rides, but he kept it light.

Big up to whoever miked that kit 👌

Zildjian and Pearl. A match made in heaven. Oh and then there’s the groove master himself…DC.

Mr Chambers I'm sure would be the 1st to admit Mr Garibaldi is no ordinary drummer and this song is nothing but a master class in complex soul funk drumming. HE NAILED IT! I got to see Mr Chambers sit in for Mr Garibaldi a couple of times with the TOP and SANTANA!!! SIMPLY AMAZING!! I bow to him and wish him health, peace and much gratitude!

Fantastic drummer,what a groove.

CONGRATULATIONS DENNIS!! IS THE BEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD!!... SHOW MAN!!

NOTHING MAKING ME MORE GLAD AND SOO DARN DANG HAPPY TO SEE DENNIS OVER COMING HIS "FLESH WOMB" AS HE CALLED IT HIS LOOKING GREAT HEALTHY AND SOUNDING AS SHARP AND FUNKY AS EVER KEEP IT UP MR. CHAMBERS 💚

Dennis is one of the greats. So glad to see him healthy!

So, so good. That pocket. I have to admit, I couldn't make it through the Pick up the Pieces video, but this? I could listen all day. The Menace!

The legend is thriving and back in the game.

DC has been inspiring me for over 30 years!!! What a legend

Well, Dennis is da man - completely awesome guy! 🤩🙏

Metronomes are scared of this man!! I met Dennis on the same evening, such a nice guy and the best drummer in the world!!

My Favorite Drummer, all the time 🥁🔥🙏🏾🫶🏾!

It’s such a joy to see and hear DC. Nowadays most young drummers just doin’ kinda a sports behind their drum kits, most of them got no soul, no feel. Thanks DC for being a such a great guy!

This man exudes joy every time I see him play

I mean, Dennis is just friggin awesome!!! Great to see him back to health!

That's a funky groove! That hi-hat open close thing is super cool.

He's back and as solid as ever!!!

As soon as I saw Dennis Chambers and What is hip I clicked it might not seem like a difficult song but the timing is very intricate and he was spot on! 👌👍

It is good to see him in good health and playing with lots of Vitality

Dennis has a gifted natural soulful way of how he plays drums effortlessly,he makes complex grooves look easy to play . I can watch him play for hours on end because it helps play better when I try to mimic some of his drum parts ❤️👏👍👌TOP NOTCH

Stellar performance. And that sound! 🎧🙏

Favorite drummer of all time

Awesome as always. A drumming legend that I respect.

It’s possible to recognize that snare sound and THA groove MILES away! Such a legend!

Dennis for so many years floored people with his incredible speed and super-human solos....which also always wowed me the several times I have seen him live in clubs. But, what was always there was that fat pocket and groove....and that's what pays the bills. So good to see Dennis healthy.

One of my favorite drummers, Great feel, nice hits & kicks (as always)!

Saw DC in Dallas several years ago with Victor Wooten. Such a wonderful player! I’ve never seen such a locked in pocket. Groove and ghost notes for days!

It is so great to see Dennis Chambers looking healthy.

Hot dam, smooth as butter, tight as heck and funky as F!

Absolute legend.

DC is my big reference. Happy to see you killing it... God Bless you!

Beautiful.

Shout out to the rhythm section on this session. They are killing! Robin Mullarkey sounds awesome as usual.

Excellent to see Dannis!…

Tight, funky and a damned metronome ! Love DC.

So wonderful to see a big drum-cymbal event, and the drummer is playing with a LIVE BAND. I`m not into drummers playing to a machine track. Playing with live musicians shows how good of a drummer you really are. Dennis Chambers is a great drummer who knows how to play with musicians to make the music feel so good with his drumming. Playing a machine track means you studied the track and just know how to play to it. Got to have feel working with live musicians and it`s so much better.

Outstanding

Probably the greatest drummer alive - still being blown away by your performance with the great Victor Wooten in Jackson , Wyoming some years back !!! Mind bending skill, separation and funkiness - 🙏respect and god bless you Dennis - you are totally amazing

*Tight* _and_ *Groovy* !!!

Dennis Chambers siempre leal a Zildjian y Pearl ❤

What a beast! That feel, that technique... I'll take this over "gravity-blast" this or "blast-beat" that any day of the week!

Super to see Dennis in great shape and mega funky as always!

Totally awesome! Fantastic groove (DUH!), and just so fun to play! In a sea of young drummers who just seemed to want to go at break neck speed as if they were Formula 1 Drivers and use drumming as a cardiovascular workout for every song, should take a page out of Dennis's book and see just how fun drums can be!

What a drummer plays anything superb !!

That's the King smooth grooving there mannn....🔥

You should ‘a seen just what i heard ! I had a friend who said dave garibaldi played like a Singer sewing machine, no stitches or seams showing. Thank you for playing this so well.🎉

much love and respect to the great Dennis Chambers... that was awesome

That 'Dancing Men' solo Dennis Chambers performed 30 years ago with Buddy Rich Big Band still inspires me to this day. Amazing accomplishments Dennis has made over the decades. Keep going brother.🙏

Looking and sounding great!

What a treat! Effortless and flawless. What an inspirational video. I just got off my kit but it looks like I’m back on it for another hour or two. Thanks for posting. That venue is drummer and drum tech heaven.

What I would give to see Dennis Chambers play with TOP! That needs to happen.

맛있다 맛있어... 단단하고 쫀쫀하게 달라붙는 사운드와 정교한 리듬이 너무 좋다.

One of the GOATs, amazing playing as always.

Solid as always!

Wow just wow - what a groove. What feel. What an inspiration

So cool!

Dennis is a Monster !!!

Perfect

Ah man that was SO groovy in the way only Dennis can do it! Awesome stuff!

He looks great!

Solid as a Rock...Pocket perfection Dennis!!!

super solid and tight - love that snare work, killer drum sound! Been learning from you since I was a boy!

His eyes seemed to be closed the whole time. To think that Dennis could play this in a dark room is astounding.

So much experience he never needs to open his eyes to find the bell of the ride. Amazing!
