You might know him as the vocalist of the Foo Fighters, the drummer for Nirvana, or the nicest guy in rock. No matter how you slice it, Dave Grohl is one of the most influential drummers in rock history. He’s also been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame... twice!
He’s been a bona fide music icon since Nirvana burst onto the alternative rock scene in Seattle almost 30 years ago. His memorable drum parts on hits like “Come As You Are” and “Smells Like Teen Spirit” provided a soundtrack to the ‘90s for angst-ridden teens around the world.
As if that weren’t enough, his second act as the frontman for Foo Fighters showed off his impressive musical versatility and rock star personality.

To answer you guys he never used a click ever and on my hero , it was two takes perfectly in unison. First recorded inside the studio , and the second that gives it the huge sound was in the huge out door semi enclosed car park of the studio. Do a search for recording of my hero. I can't remember the channel but I think its "produce like a pro " . It was recorded by bradley cook a legend who also produced so many great bands and check it out has some great stories and facts about the recording. For memory that first foo album was to tape as well so the double in sync was punched in and no assistance he just has amazing timing . I couldn't do it . Just do a search of produce like a pro and foo fighter, he also talks about every long recording on another video.

*He’s incredible!* ❤️ “I never took lessons to learn how to play the drums, and I never took lessons to learn how to play guitar, I just sort of figured it out. I think that if you’re passionate about something and you’re driven and focused, that you can pretty much do anything that you want to do in life.” -Dave Grohl; Foo Fighters and Nirvana “Musicians should go to a yard sale and buy an old fucking drum set and get in their garage and just suck. And get their friends to come in and they’ll suck, too. And then they’ll fucking start playing and they’ll have the best time they’ve ever had in their lives and then all of a sudden they’ll become Nirvana. Because that’s exactly what happened with Nirvana. Just a bunch of guys that had some shitty old instruments and they got together and started playing some noisy-ass shit, and they became the biggest band in the world. That can happen again! You don’t need a fucking computer or the internet or The Voice or American Idol.” - Dave Grohl; Foo Fighters and Nirvana

All other stuff is luxuries and goodies, like the icing on the cake and you can't have no icing if the cake's not there. What I'm trying to say is that a great drummer needs to be able to serve the song first and foremost, a thing that Dave Grohl is exceptionally good at.

The Songs for the Deaf record - it's all on display. One of the greatest drum albums ever made

Mantra by Dave Grohl, Josh Homme and Trent Reznor. The timing on that song. (instrumental)

@Narshadarr 2 года назад

Grohl was the guy that influenced me to play drums and nirvana scentless apprentice was always a fun one. Great job !!

The drum fill of Winnebago is just brutal, both versions. And I also like the outro drum fill of Stay away, which may sound random but it's actually kind of structured.

Dave Grohl has easily become the worlds most legendary musician and god damn he’s the most humble person of them all.

@kronos9931 Год назад

One of the coolest Songs Dave played the drums on is "Shake your blood" from Probot. The tempo is mesmerizing

@andrewpappas9311 День назад

Dave will always be one of my favourite drummers/musicians, dude is not only obviously talented as hell but is one of the funniest people ever and I actually share a birthday with him so that’s another personal reason why I like him so much

Scentless apprentice intro and my hero drums will always have a special place in my heart as some of the sickest fucking drum beat ever

These "drumming genius" videos are great! Of course, I've heard of Dave Grohl and I've heard him playing with Nirvana and with Foo Fighters some (not familiar with a lot of their music) but I've never really focused on his playing at all. I'm totally looking forward to the other "genius" videos you have planned! Thanks for posting this! It was fun to watch and I learned a few things! :)

So glad to hear! appreciate your comment!

Dave is a genius there’s no doubt about it, but what makes him so special it’s that he’s so humble and down to earth. A legend truly a legend.

The intro of In Bloom - Nirvana is my favorite one, it's nostalgic (clacla-clumclumclum-ta) 😂

@hfranke07 2 года назад

I had a 30 minutes talking to him, when I was a stage hands to one of the Foo concerts in Denmark.... he is just so nice.... luv you, dude

I always appreciated his very analog and rock style on NIN With Teeth album.

@matthewjames206 2 года назад

Some of my favorite drumming by him. Especially on "The Collector" 👌👌🍻

@joeyfigueroa4748 2 года назад

I love Dave. The dude is just all around cool. As a vocalist, a drummer, a guitar player, a person etc. The man is just all around cool. And now..... I think he's a genius!

Two things: - Milk it was the song that made me conclude he's such a creative drummer. - why is the drumming in In Bloom always mistaken for Dave's drumming, while it is Chad who came up with it?

@messygamez5675 2 года назад

Probably because Dave is the one that made it famous. It's an honest mistake.

@rambleo 2 года назад

What a drummer! what a power on the drum! I love Dave!

@gabaqu 2 года назад

Didn’t need a video to know that Dave is a master of any crafts, but it’s always fun to watch such a well produced reminder! You were killin that DC funk-punk backbeat, dude!

Another great video. Thank you for putting this together. 👍

@jonahleonard5732 Год назад

His drumming is talked about a lot here but the fact he can write songs better than most stars and play guitar too is what makes him more of a genius

@Arexodius 8 месяцев назад

Good point!

@cristianguerra7279 2 года назад

Dave has always been a drum god for me as a drummer, he inspired me to play drums next to Joey Jordison

@catherinecampbell-costello737 Месяц назад

Not only is he accurate but he is the hardest hitting . I can only imagine how many drum heads he goes thru in a month. Dude! You are amazing!

@PiazzaGurl 2 года назад

Dave is a Genius and he’s become an amazing guitarist, writer. Dave is definitely up there. He and Chad Smith are incredible.

@stefanocaroleo618 Год назад

Good, solid rock drummer? Definitely. Genius? Hardly.

@FoppnRock 2 года назад

What about the album Four on the Floor by Juliette and The Licks? Dave recorded it and it has some great drumming! But for me, his finest work was with Them Crooked Vultures! Just genius!

@lindawilliams2211 2 года назад

I agree. Elephants is crazy badass.

@adrianlyord5300 2 года назад

Wow!!!! I didn't know he liked Tony Thompson from CHIC and The Gap Band!!! I've always liked his drumming and now I'm really impressed with the fact that he likes Disco and Funk music and CAMEO too! Great job on this video and entertaining as well! Thanks!

@maddogj4canikon 2 года назад

To be honest , it ist hard to point one out, but if I take my watchlist fav, it is Mantra. Thank you for this great, much to short, video.

@billshank6266 2 года назад

At 8 seconds he’s playing a really cool drum beat with the floor tom, I used to play this exact thing but never saw anyone else do it before. Pretty cool!

@EricWoods21701 2 года назад

If you want a cool Dave drum fill, check out a queens of the Stone Age song called Avon, but check out one of the live versions on RU-vid. Freaking amazing!!
