I love how well he pulls off the Costanza the whole time without catching a hint of Judgment from anybody in the past, present or future.
Love Erskine’s tuning! He’s got the bass drum sounding like a hidden tom - he plays it with that smooth foot of his and you’re like ‘WTF... that guys got 3 hands!’ When he does those triplet rolls with the kick, it sounds almost impossible. He’s a legend, just gets cooler as he gets older. Thanks for breaking this down, appreciated.
yeah, i always thought his drums sounded difficult to play. like the way he has them tuned, you really have to be precise with your note placement cause you can hear every mistake.
"UMMMM" there it is! Welcome back man. Great stuff as always. Love the new piccolo.
The whole kit sounds incredible!
Welcome back! I always look forward to these videos from your channel! Thanks for the concepts from each artist you've chosen I always enjoy each study! Keeps me humble and inspired!!!
About time you did some Erskine! I actually have this VHS and used to watch this solo over, and over, and over again. Great video and breakdown!
The drums have been my joy instrument since I was nine. I’m a professional trumpet player but I’ve been a diehard buddy retired since the 70s and Peter is way high on my short list of other drummers who really impacted me. Peter did his homework and helped bring a lot of the techniques of the swing drummers into The modern vocabulary. What you shared here is something he taught me Through listening very long time ago. But. Hey, I’m old.. sorta.
I believe that Danny Richmond, Charles Mingus’ s lifelong drummer, began his musical career by playing trumpet
Love that ride cymbal
Dang he is such an amazing drummer! Glad you did a Study The Greats on Mr. Erskine...nice job bro!! Really nice tutorial!!
Have been waiting for this one man! Yup, nice work again Austin, thanks!!
WOW! I was sitting here watching that Peter Erskine for the 100th time, frustrated because even with the transcript, I can't figure out what he is doing & how he is doing it. And then I came across this video and suddenly I know, basically, what he is doing and can start working on being able to play it! THANKS!!!
I was once at a jam nite at a club on Rt. 51 near Pittsburg back in the late 80s. As I sat in the audience getting ready to get onstage and jam.... I noticed the Peter Erskine was sitting a few tables away. U fortunately...... He went up before I did and I didn't get a chance to play with him......Another one of my brushes with greatness.....A night I'll never forget
Excellent video! You're video 'breakdown lesson' are priceless, and also keep me practicing!
I watched some recent videos of him and amazes me how every kit he plays sounds amazingly good
These videos are incredible! So much work must have gone in to them!
Just discovered your channel. These study the greats breakdown videos are amazing. Watching videos of gospel chops is great and all, but there's just something about watching some good old fashioned honest to god drumming.
great stuff and really helpful. tnx :) my students are loving these exercises and breakdown of the greats. keep'em coming !
Really respect and appreciate these videos. Nice concise breakdowns
Yeah man! Great vid Austin! I live for the "MMMMM!!!"
i know! That's the sound of right reverence haha
Love it! Good to see you back at it.
So good. Thanks. That left side ride sounds NICE.
I just started getting into jazz. This is a definitely a fill concept I will use. Sounds so sweet
great lesson. You really know how to swing! great to see!
Thank you for the breakdown Austin, I'm new to your channel so will definitely check out more videos :)
I always give these vids a like before i've even watched them because i just know they're going to be amazing
Excellent video! Thank you for making these.
Beautifully done! Much thanks, Mick Berry
great work as always!
Very nice! Good to see you back again
Thanks for mentioning the tuning of the drums which is a contributing factor to achieving the triplet rolls on the toms you need that rebound...puts my mind at ease to know that my thinking was correct..
Nice lesson. I love your cymbals!
Fantastic series this, thanks Austin.
Great lessons, Austin! Keep 'em coming!
👍Peter's Erskin-ing, again!!! Awesome!!!
Wow! I still have that video on VHS! "Everything Is Timekeeping" I remember my high school band director playing this video for some of the drummers. My band director also had other cool DCI videos from Steve Gadd and Jaco Pastorious which had Kenwood Dennard on drums and John Scofield, I think, on guitar. He played the Jaco tape for us shortly after he died. I couldn't really appreciate that Jaco video, at least not at that time. I was 14. A few years later however, I bought Heavy Weather, and I've been a big fan ever since. Thanks for posting!!!
Thanks for sharing! Sounds great! Happy drumming everyone 😃
Erskine is killing it as usual. Nice lesson, thanks!
Like some of the other comments, I enjoyed the "Mmmmm" when you played the examples from Erskine. The pleasure conveyed in watching the master hit those fills was awesome! And I really like how you break down into simplicity something that could be quite complicated, even noting how the tuning of the kit affects the execution. That's an important idea that most of us might not get at first glance.
Thank you for this, awesome playing
Very well done, as always!
Cool Austin, great example of Peter Erskine. Keep groovin' - DC
Awesome vid. Those Byzance dark/dry sound so sweet!
Yesh! I love Erskine
Great stuff Austin! THANX
Nice job great breakdown!
Awesome vid man! Coming from a marching snare background it's always cool to see diddles(double strokes) incorporated in fills on the kit :D
Bravo. In my honest opinion the explanation is so precise, and most important this is so clever whay to explain pretty hard staff.
always enjoy your video austin.. keep shares..
Excellent! Thanks!
Awesome Lesson....! Really well explained. Thanks for sharing... (Troy from American One Productions, NJ)
sounds great! Thank you
Pretty awesome lesson Austin. U make it look pretty easy.
Nice job well explained thanks..
CZcamss best series!
That guy's wrists look like Gumby's...stellar flow and style!
Great!
Thanks for that!
Great vid! Love Peter
Yash. Nice work on this one, man👌🏾
+Rob Brown Thanks Rob 👊🏼
Killer technique man. Awesome!
Very, very... que interesante tu desarrollo. Abrazo desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Thank you for the breakdown. Listening to that stuff applied in tempo makes it sound very complicated, but once it's broken down it's pretty easy!
I LOVE the sound of your cymbals, they're as good as "Istanbul-Mehmet's". I wonder who's really making them. Knowing that all of today's Turkish cymbal makers are apprentices of Mr Tamdeger makes it even more miracoulous.
You’re an incredible teacher!
Thanks for sharing this! Also it's possible to apply just singles if doubles are hard to pullout. Different effect but works for low tuned drums.
Very clean
Great stuff. This is beyond my ability but I understand it...just can't get it to my hands. I love watching skilled players play with such effortless motion.
Best teacher on CZcams
great videos!
I want to add that the little section where you talk about doubling up when you are playing the simple hand to hand triplets is also a great way to learn, and improve, your double stroke roll. It makes practicing the double stroke roll much more fun and interesting. I have a video on it here on YT. If you type in "daniel casher" and then look for the video drum lesson on the double stroke roll, you can see the whole lesson.
awesome
Good stuff.
Great Lesson. I had to subscribe to your Channel!!!
This dude has been one of my top 5 favs, prob top3 favs every since i bought the weather report 8:15 c.d. (yes i do mean compact disc)
👍🙂 You're kicking some righteous Jazz-drumming ass, Austin!! Noice!🙂‼️
Peter has nice hands. I remember this video from wayyy back in the day. Early 90s maybe? Possibly later 80s.
Nice video, Erskine is a true master
Cool!!!
Hey Austin, on another video I asked what drum set you're using. I've watched a ton more of your videos, and now see the make of your drums. So that's all resolved :) They sound great and your videos and playing are top of the line!
Nice!
Very high quality vidéos . Thanks !
great 🙂
4:37 "and when you have that going..." me: 7 years later
Hi Austin, thanks for your videos, nice choice with Mr. Erskine this time! I was wondering if you could do an episode with Ilan Rubin and his Guitar Center Solo of 2010...!? There is this lick you know, I couldn't figure out ;-) that would be great
nice!
I like your approach: very friendly and clear. Since I'm a Rock drummer, and prefer the roar of my tom-toms to the high wound top end of jazz drums, I'll need an appropriate alternative . . . .
Helpful tip for the doubles concept on lower or looser tuned toms. Work hard and slow on doing doubles on the floor tom over and over and over. CLEAN. You will NEED to learn the push and pull method to pump them out like nothing on the kit, especially toms. I can do it easily now but it took many weeks of practicing it slow first. You have to really force those two hits and let the stick come up and do it's job from the natural rebound then just grasp the 2nd hit with your fingers. Great video man, great teacher as well.
It also helps if you practice accenting the second note of the double stroke. It eliminates the possibility to use the rebound completely and forces you to really play the notes with your fingers and wrists! I found it super helpful.
I forgot about accenting that note, good point my friend!
Jim Chapin
Definitely. Years, or decades, ago I practiced my double-stroke rolls on a pillow. A big fat floppy pillow. If you can play 5-stroke rolls, 9-stroke rolls, or one long double-stroke (open) roll on a pillow, then playing a roll on a loose drumhead should be no problem. That was a good way for me to learn how to let my fingers do the work. It made my hands that much stronger and it paid off a few years later when I was playing in a college percussion ensemble and I had to play an open roll on a concert bass drum using two soft bass drum mallets. Whew!
I forgot about the classic pillow method! ;) Man did my muscles burn through that haha.
Brasil aqui parabéns 👏👏👏🇧🇷🤗🤗🤗
Erskine did some amazing work with weather report and especially Jaco. His drumming on Teen town is genius. He is still at it, better than ever! Much respect. Forgot to say, great video! Very inspiring.
Just wondering man, I always heard that Jaco himself recorded the drums on Teen Town?
@@pjoconnell8268 Jaco recorded the gong drum overdub part (open sounding bass drum played with mallets). Possibly the snare overdub also. Peter is playing the hihat/quiet rim shot basic rhythm, I think.
Alex Acuna plays drums on Heavy Weather along with Jaco on Teen Town
Love to see Austin on Drumeo. Dude's a hell of a player.
Peter is great, you are great.
Great tip at 4:10 !
fucking awesome as always ty
Nice and tight.
Nice playing.
Hey,, great lesson- this same kind of rolling is employed by Keith Carlock as you know- at a much more exaggerated level I would suggest.. on the topic of Carlock- you gotta watch his utube vid on playing shuffles!!-- Just to hear his gorgeously unmuffled bass drum sound!!!
The drumset is nicely tuned for jazz ! :)
Sounds silly but I've been drumming for three years. This stuff is way over my head. But, I still enjoy watching every minute of them!
The more you'll learn and the longer you'll play you'll realise how much this is actually over your head
Tanks man to tike on ur time to teach us for free, were lucky ! tanks
MMMMM. Rock version can be heard on Queens Of The Stone Age's "No One Knows"
Tony Williams used to use that triplet fill alot..check out Stanley Clarkes Lopsy Lue....
Low and Gushy...Nice reference!
