    Such a great feel on that track. It feels like a Jeff Porcaro feel.

    Thanks, Mike. Now, can you please come down to San Jose and play that for me at our next live gig? I hate not playing it live as it should be but that quarter note triplet is a killer.

    Covering this in the 80's, I would have fun and get creative, mess with the groove. Fortunately, had a great bass player.

  • @karolinaborowczyk-grzana6744

    Hey - We can't say for sure that the kick drum plays this way - the bass certainly plays this way

  • @Poundemonium24
    @Poundemonium24 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Great video. I actually learned this beat not by listening to Tears for Fears but by listening to drummer Scott Rockenfield on The Whisper by Queensryche. His kick drum is not as busy throughout the entire song but he does throw in some variations.

  • @bmbell71
    @bmbell71 Před 4 měsíci +30

    You are correct, but keep in mind the recoding was done with a LinnDrum, so there never was a real drummer playing this on the album.

  • @MikeMichalkow
    @MikeMichalkow  Před 4 měsíci +2

    Hey Friends... well, these new videos sure have caused some people to get quite angry with me and I'm not really sure why... My entire career, I've played and taught this song the way I explain it. Recently I saw a Transcription on Drumeo, and I really trust their transcribers as they are great! The Transcription by Sahand Kahksar is just great!! Please don't think I'm taking anything away from your current knowledge, and even if the current live drummer plays with Quarter notes on the kick, that's great, but challenge yourself to the way I show it from the Transcription I trust. Thank you all for your continued support! Happy Drumming Everyone!

    I play 16 notes with a swing on the hihat with both wrists then left hand on snare 2+4
    I'm also playing this way to make up for the shaker that is over dubbed in the recording

  • @Ihitthings3
    @Ihitthings3 Před 4 měsíci +2

    Good explanation. Never played this out live, but I did this one during Covid when I live-streamed my practice sessions on r/Redditsessions. The only difference I did was I played 8 note triplets on the hi hats and accented the offbeat like you play (I think there’s a shaker on the original track and I wanted to simulate that)

    • @MikeMichalkow

      I agree, but if you are in a band playing this song live and no one is playing shaker, you better make this groove sound big!

  • @PaulBarrieDrummer
    @PaulBarrieDrummer Před 15 dny

    Well, there's obviously many ways to play this groove and successfully support the song. You're groove sounds great, but if you carefully listen to the original track, the programmed kick is definitely playing quarter notes. The shuffle comes from a bass synth or other sample that doesn't even resemble a kick drum sound. I would not have even commented had you not been so adamant about so many bad representations of this groove on line, and you're going to set the record straight. Bottom line, a programmed drum part might, and in this case does, yield many interpretations, including your own, which is valid, but not what I would play. Peace!
