@@zav.i , physically impossible to do both simultaneously. listen to Eagles tunes. Don Henley *ONLY* plays live. youll hear the hi-hat stop during fills.
Firsts one that nails the so difficult part ; minute 1:18 ; Ringo does what the song and singers needed to make it perfect but ; he really did so many hard fills ; and his tempo ; it’s perfect in timing
Great playing Batman. You are also making more people realise what a great and innovative drummer Ringo is, and how it just would not have been the same Beatles magical sound without him.I wonder if Ringo himself ever comes on youtube and watches these, and sees you replicate his brilliant drum tracks !! ?!
Good job, you captured the spirit of Ringo's drumming very well. I really dig how you played that bridge section. Clever in keeping the volume down of the song track, YT customs won't detect it.
wow man, this is the most incredible and accurate drumming of this song I've ever seen, I appreciate also the new quality of the video. Btw, the pre-solo part is amazing. CONGRATULATIONS
I can watch that OVER and OVER! Because unless there's footage somewhere in a vault and other than Ringo shown performing it at "The Concert for George", there is none… bootleg or otherwise. So, it's great to see Ringo's AMAZING contribution to "Something" brought to life and done so masterfully. Thank you!
This is simply a master class in tasteful & appropriate playing. As those other drummers said @ TRRHOF, “Ringo sat within the song. It’s a fu*k#ing Ringo thing!” 😃
I just discovered you on you tube & you're absolutely amazing ! I'm not a drummer, but I love The Beatles & love to listen to note for note & beat for beat instrumentation of their music. You really capture another fascinating dimension of what Ringo applied to this super favorite Harrison classic of mine. Bravo amigo ! I gotta catch up of your other stuff now.......
I always thought that the bridge part was an overdub. Many drums parts in the Beatles' songs use the "drum overdubbing" in my opinion. Great drumming in this video anyway.
Thanks for the tip.I'm sure he didn't know that was an overdub. Also he's not "trying" to play both parts he simply is playing both parts. And the cymbal crescendo overdubs. Nothing "pretty good" about it. He did great. Don't be afraid to give a fellow musician a pat on the back. Great job man, the whole thing was stellar. 👍✌️💛
Hey! That drum set sounds perfect!! And it's really kind from you to share that track this way. If I ever count on what it takes to record other traks, I won't forget yours. ;))
Great to see a new one from you. I was so sad when they took down all your Beatle drum videos down. (here in U.S?) I enjoyed them so much. I assume they made you take them off because they had the Beatle music playing without permission. Hopefully the powers that be won't mind the way you did it with this one (Music much lower). Maybe you could repost those older ones with the the music lower, if that's possible. They were so well done and really gave great insight into just what a fantastic drummer Ringo was/is. One last question; I always assumed that tom work in the 'Something' bridge section was an overdub. Do you agree and did you just decide to incorporate it into one whole part? Keep up the great work!
Just saw your note about the bridge section (missed it first time around). What Ringo played on the bridge is quite cool and unexpected. It's the kind of the thing you just don't see drummers do these days, thinking about drumming from a compositional sense, It gives the bridge a urgency and a textural contrast from the very sparse verses.
And Mac's bass part is very busy..and great... ....which wouldn't have worked if Ringo hadn't given him the space. In addition George's very melodic and somewhat sparse.(but genius) lead is also gives Mac the room do what he does...the bass part just kind of wraps around the lead
