Really dig your hi hat sound. Is there a 15" set up or a set of cymbals that would get me close to the sounds your getting? Cheers!

@JeffRandallDrumming 4 года назад

@@hvysouldg The 15's aren't going to be as "thick" sounding as those 17's but a dark/thin pair of Zildjian Constantinoples would get you going in the right direction!

@Euthyphro 4 года назад

Clyde and Jabo taught me all about "tipping" the hi hat. Coming from a rock background, i was used to shouldering the hats to get a more aggressive sound, which was great, but I found Jabo and Clyde taught me how to stay in control of my hi hat work by keeping them soft. I.e "tippin'"

@WhoWeAre1311 4 года назад

Excellent review and amazingly executed! You most definitely got the “soul” my friend! Lastly, you nailed the “Funky Drummer” beat at the end. I must say, clever technique for easing up on the wrist and forearm because of those continued 16th notes. Keep it up the great work!

Holy crap ... had to come back again Jeff ... just watching you feel the joy of playing is infectious. I'm not that accomplished, I just play for fun, but I do try to learn beats that are out of my comfort zone ... slowly ... and so I enjoy watching players and breaking down what is being played. I'm slowly learning Tom Sawyer and also the Rosanna Groove at present. Just really enjoy watching you on the kit ... cheers!

Man that second section of the super bad groove sounds sooooo good, could keep that on repeat all day! Do not know how you get your right hand so accurate with those groups of 3 while getting the snare part crispy too 😥 I had to really think about what my right hand was doing with that! Did not feel natural at all 😂 Keep doing what you’re doing my man! Really enjoy your videos. Love from Sheffield, England!

@TKinthePocket 6 месяцев назад

Practice “throwing the stick” so that its dribbling off the cymbal…if the stick is doing the work for you then you can focus more on cracking the snare 🫡

Hey Jeff, Prayers for Nashville and the entire planet. Great work, this video is amazing!! I was interested in your Hi-hats as they sound perfect for groove based music, when I hit the Hi-hat links they showed up as crash cymbals.

@JeffRandallDrumming Год назад

Thanks for your prayers! The hi-hats are indeed crash cymbals. :)

I’m working on Mother Popcorn it’s a killer. That’s a good version of that groove but I find the beginning of that song even more challenging because the hats are unrelenting ! Hard to keep these grooves nice and light. Thanks for the vid

@@JeffRandallDrumming I'm sure you've already heard this but I consider it the funkiest drum solo of all of James' songs, as performed by William Bowman. It's in Part 2 of the song 'I Can't Stand Myself', staring at the 4:35 mark. If you haven't heard it, it's a real treat: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yP1wtlfs8lg.html
