- Clip taken from Charles Mingus Sextet, at the Konserthuset Stockholm, Sweden, April 13th, 1964.
Original video: • Charles Mingus Sextet...
The drummer in question is Dannie Richmond.
I do not own this video. I wish I did.
I have never solo’d well enough to warrant a WOOO, I’m envious
I was thinking that was my exact experience when I would nail something in college jazz band! I can’t believe I did it; wooooo!
I WOOO myself a bit solo.
Extremely cool...
He WOOO’d himself. You gotta WOOO yourself sometimes.
@@theghd2020
I WOOOO myself as regularly as I’m able, in addition to any WOOOOing that I’m able to get from others.
As both a drummer, and a human with teeth, I find this to be one of the best 25 seconds on CZcams.
aw, gimme some
Wow. I also have teeth. But i can' drum and im no human 😪
This makes me wheeze
My drumms have teeth.
I'm a teeth to a human, and my human can drums.
Honestly, as a drummer for 15 years, this actually slaps and seeing the joy on this man is what music is all about.
Drummer is not a musician
@@lu9thix
I’ve read his post three times, I can’t find the part where he calls a drummer a musician. However, regardless…….. semantics.
0:19 But damn that is really good :D
He must be, who else can do that kind of”waterfall” drumroll?
@@lu9thix That's the stupidest thing I've read in quite a while
The fact that, without keeping a pulse with his left foot, he played such complex subdivisions (almost seeming random and completely off beat) while still coming in EXACTLY on beat one astonishes me. And don't even get me started on his dynamics! Truly the best drum solo I've ever seen.
As a non-drummer, I have no idea what you're saying but k.
@@method341 its like counting 1234 but like the kid from wayside school
Seemed on beat to me, or at least far from random. Definitely played with dynamics
Bro it's not the best drum solo ever. Wake up to reality.
I'm just gonna follow up that I counted the 2/4 when he started the solo, and surprisingly he came right back on beat from when he started. He even strayed off-beat during the solo, yet still knew the proper tempo. This man is a chaotic god
Always been a fan of Freddie Mercury... Love his drumming stuff.
😅🙌
😂 lmao why u do him like that 🤣
lmfaoo
🤣
🤣
They cut out the best part, after he screams woo, Mingus looks back and gives a smile.
It wasn't even that "I'm going to strangle you later" smile.
Mingus
I thought Mingus was going to give him the "what the fuck?" look.
what song is this? what performance? would love to see the whole shebang.

A quote i once heard from a drummer:
“Remember, your drum solo doesn’t have to be impressive. What matters is if people feel with it”
The drum solo from "the end" By beatles is not that impressive, the problem is that's the only drum solo Ringo's ever did, and kinda makes it special
"Quotes don't even have to be in English. You custom can like what you."
That would surly make it impressive if the people feel it ? As they would be impressed??? Sounds like a high drummer said that quote
@@kakyoindonut3213 why is it a problem ? Just because you don’t do drum solos doesn’t make it a problem . Ringos timing was impeccable he didn’t really do complicated drumming per say , but what he did do was drum to perfection . People think the faster you drum makes you good . Not so
@@Algorithm347 “the faster you play, the more good you are?”
only works on metal drumming..
but, nowadays, metal has already put some complicated technic on their drums to make it sounds not boring..
Dannie Richmond is one of the best drummer, great cat, great humour, I think he would love to know that he'll be forever remembered for this moment and his incredible passion and joy!
I didn’t know he had a great cat. 🐈

0:08 as a drummer myself, that roll was literally perfect
Love a good ol' fashioned press roll, none of this double stroke nonsense!
I'm not kidding about what I do
I’m a percussionist myself and this drummer understands the space between the downbeats in a way I can’t even pretend to
You really put it into words perfectly.
Thank you
It's like the way Monk played the cracks between the keys
@@gibgezr I hadn’t heard that before but damn, he sure did
@@teotlxixtli That's an old Chico Hamilton quote about Monk: ‘Man, I have played with piano players who play with all the white keys. I have played with piano players who have played with all the black keys, but I have never played with no motherfucker who played in between the cracks.’
Dannie Richmond
The band before the set: "Dannie... don't do the thing... please..."
Dannies face when they asked that: 0:07
Dannie had no fucks to give...
Best comment here…
Hahaha 🤣
I pressed on that time stamp, looked at the facial expression in question and laughed very loudly. It’s that ‘watch what imma do next lads’ kinda face.
Dude I'm trying to drive. you're gonna make me wreck
It’s not the notes he played…
It’s all the ones he left out.
Brilliant!
"I can do that at home"
Ok Lisa 😉
It's not the notes he played.... it was how many weeds he took before getting on stage
That is the KEY
Looks kinda AI generated
After playing drums for 23 years, I only recently learned to appreciate solos like these. As someone else said in the comments, sometimes it's not about what you do play, but rather what you DON'T play. "Saying something by not saying anything" is an art form of its own.🍺
What a bunch of horseshit!
@@frankieRandle8779do you just come back here to say the same thing?
I don"t get it
But…what did he say?
@@CorePathway Everything :D
Mingus got this guy into drumming with his band. He originally played something else but Mingus was really into his drumming.
Was a saxophonist and he went to uni in my town Greensboro, N.C.
@@bradlloyd6261 ayyyyy. A fellow alumni of UNC Greensboro?
Woah very cool
His name is Mingus.?
😶
@@somegirl558 Nope, the bandleader and bassist is Mingus..
he absolutely meant that.
it's a lovely drum break, musical and perfectly appropriate for the musical moment, and played by one of the most musical cats you could ever hope to play with-and brother they ain't no cheese in that
don't worry, he was talking about his own pee pee
Man id love to meet someone like you who's really into Jazz music and totally gets it I love to see that shit
They ain't no cheese in that is a beautiful phrase. Love and thank all English speakers to teach me how cool that line is. Peace ✌️
I wish I was intelligent enough to understand the jazz... Well, I'll be damned.
Hey, non-native speaker here. Would you explain to me what does the phrase "they ain't no cheese in that" mean?
Dannie Richmond is an absolute legend, even Charles Mingus said that he wouldn't be able to play without him
The 1st time you watch this video, you BUST OUT laughing from the close ups, the sudden snare shots and the impression that he's the only one thrilled with his solo. By the 20th time, you start to actually hear the sheer brilliance that is his solo!
This is my 30th Time looking at this video and still have no clue about what the hell is going on here. But then again, maybe I am not smart enough to understand the jazz.
@@onerandombruh that's the point of jazz. no one understands it

Idk y but reading through this as it's all going down is absolutely hilarious
The most mind-blowing thing to me is how they all came back in at the same time. I would definitely not have been capable of keeping time during that solo.
Just listen for the hat
There's also a pretty impactful snare hit bringing them back in.
He gave them a full measure right at the end.
"how they all came back in at the same time". Certainly, plus the fact that the solo sounds (to me at least) as if it's done away with the song's rhythm and going its own way... However, if you click your fingers along from the beginning (hi-hat is the cue) then you come to realise that the song's rhythm is there all along. So not only they come back at the same time, but back to the song's rhythm. Frankly, as a drummer, if I were able to depart from a rhythm WITHOUT truly breaking that rhythm I would WOW myself as well, and not just once, hahaha.
@@AusRapArchives Actually the hi-hat is all over the place during the drum solo, and just before the band comes back is not used (only at the very last, but you can't ever hear it).
It’s not the difficulty level, it’s the creativity. That’s one of his solos. That man can play.
tbf this is also hard as hell to play, no one's banging this one out without some serious practice behind them. Crazy dynamics.
Yeah, creativity level like painting two lines on a blank canvas and admiring how creative it was 😂😂😂
@@backspace9766 watch his other work before you judge.
@@backspace9766 is a troll, haha, don't bother with him : )
I love how the outburst of ecstasy was not during his moment to shine alone, but rather when the whole band jumped back in on it that his bliss went through the stratosphere.😎
That's what it's all about, Cool cat 👌👌👌🌶️
The ecstasy he took 10 mins ago outbursted at that exact moment
Dannie Richmond is one of the tastiest drummers to ever play the skins, and he is almost unknown outside of hardcore jazz circles. Mingus called him, "The only drummer I want to play with." There is no higher praise than that.
dammnn he's talented
btw i know some of you guys hate self promoters, but if you're really interested to check my song called end of the day out, i'd be glad tho. thank you :)
My favorite thing about Charles Mingus is Danny Richmond. Well, one of many favorite things.
Thanks for letting us know his name tho cause I didn’t
That depends. Maybe he meant “to play with” in a sexy-time way.
@@billhouchens7439 Perhaps he meant it both ways. It's hard to tell with Mingus.
If only everyone (non-jazz players and non-musician in general) could know how hard is to build an improvised drum solo this well and how long it takes today to know the Jazz language you’d be seeing this man differently. Love him!
Also when he comes in for brief solo on Gunslinging Bird he’s blasting. I’m not making the time because a person has to listen to entire thing before drum solo around 2:58 czcams.com/video/Y-iA2OL6enw/video.html
Charles Schwab over here
It takes as long as the solo is, if it's improvised
For me Jazz have sounded like absolute dogshit for the majority of the times I’ve heard it, I don’t know how else to put it. It sounds at times like each person is playing their own song and people just lap that shit up like it’s the most amazing thing they’ve ever heard. I’m not going question their abilities to play their instruments I’m just saying that that’s what I think it sounds like and just because (and this goes for all genres of music) something is crazy difficult to play doesn’t mean it sounds good.
@@Guranga93 I’m really sorry to hear that you and so many other people feel that way about such a great and vaste musical genre; you truly have no idea of how many stunning pieces of music you’re missing just because of a prejudice born after you probably stumbled across some bad bebop-like extremist Jazz band. Jazz is really not only about the musician technique, it’s so much more than that. Try again maybe, or maybe don’t
i love how this video always get recomended for me again every few weeks
This masterpiece has never left my recommendations no matter how much I've rewatched this.
This was the best thing CZcams has ever done to my feed.
same lol
Same. Ever found the foul video of this gig ?
@@vasileiosaktsoglou3368 yes! The algorithm seems to understand that viewers intend to watch the full gig right after this masterpiece.
It’s not about the solo itself. It’s about the confidence that he played a great solo. 👊🏽
it's genius though
@@zachsmith3 How?
@@ThisReckless Because it's not about the notes he hits as much as the notes he doesn't hit - he uses silence as part of the drum solo - and if you count that, he's playing 32nd notes in terms of how it feels as a rhythm. It gets better and better the more you feel it out, it seems like only a meme at first but it's truly a genius drummer at work. Listen to Hussain play Tabla to get a better feel of what I'm talking about. 32nds don't fit into most contemporary western music but Indian music has used it for a long time. When you feel it, you feel it. Most drummers are incapable of feeling out 32nd's that I've listened to. That's why it has a mysterious quality to it, he's accenting the 16th notes slightly off-time but it fits perfectly into the 32nds. Most drummers are just off-time and play sloppy 16ths, this is very clean 32nd's to me using mostly 16th and 8th notes. That's the best way I could describe it. I would also describe it as a polyrhythm using silence. He's so deep in the pocket that you lose him unless you can feel it out. Indian Solfege is VERY useful for this.
@@maskcollector6949 Thank you I love music theory, and the more I listen I get it but I’m just like hmmm idk. Some parts it seems like he gets tunnel vision and doesn’t know where to go with the solo, but I am trying to hear it. He was obviously very excited about it at the end so he knows he hit something. Just didn’t seem clean, fluid, or thought outright to me.
@@ThisReckless I understand that perspective, the silences and pauses sound uncoordinated. Music is something doesn’t always rely on fluidity, it can be jarring and unexpected. As mask collector said this mans solo is calculated perfectly and you need a really trained ear to hear the flow and rhythm of 32nd’s
As a drummer, this gives me joy. I love it.
As a drummer makes me want to send him money for more drum lessons. Best drum solo compared to what ? Drumsticks on a 5 gallon bucket ? What are you guys listening to

i’ve accepted that i will never understand jazz.
Right?
I'm pretty certain nobody understands jazz. That's kinda the point...
Jazz is an excuse to play the wrong notes... that's about all I know about it.
It's actually not as bad as it sounds.
If that is so then you are on the right track
Almost every drummer underestimates the potentially highly emotional contributions that creatively placed dynamics can bring to your performance. Dig?
I love seeing a musician who's enjoying their art
Mingus smiled at him. Dannie Richmond was having a BLAST! Way to start out a set! These were some bad bad men on the stage! Love him!
possibly the most musical drummer during the greatest stretch of gigs for one of the greatest jazz musicians and composers of all time. that whole tour is nuts. the oslo show is also on video and is nuts.
Wow this is freaking hilarious- but before you judge, definitely go check out other stuff Danny Richmond did with Mingus. He's actually pretty tasty and pretty adept especially given this era of Jazz. Some of Mingus' stuff has some pretty crazy metric modulations and tempo swings. Danny could really hang with all of it and frankly his chaotic vibe was perfect for Charlie's chaotic... everything.
He's was drummer for top-of-the-top jazz and pop icons. OF COURSE he was the real deal. This little clip doesn't mean anything.
"Before you judge"....My judgement was, this cat's a genius.
@@Dave-lr2wo Just acknowledging the skeptics in the comments. Relax...
@@zivkovicable I don't know if I am coming along with 'genius'. I would use the term 'genius' with Elvin or Tony, but not with Danny and not for most of the famous players of this era. He was a wonderful player for sure. He was insanely hard working and a quick study. Also very quick on his feet as an improviser.
stop judging that we will be judging.
Jazz is when all the band members play different songs all at the same time...
lmfao
😂
One of the drum solos of all times, definitely.
If not, the drum solo ever.
Truly a drum solo
Is it over 9000?
I agree this is a drum solo of all time
he definitely has some of the stick control
This solo makes me question reality as we know it.
Well said.
Yup it can be bended.
This is one of those videos that gets less funny the more you watch it. The editing and abruptness are really fucking hilarious at first, but once you watch it a few times it starts sounding fresh ass fuck. just jazz things I guess lol
Yep. Definitely worth watching multiple times, partly to get in the groove, then also to accept the layers.
Jazz things indeed!
EXACTLY (things need viewed/read more than once, lol...and people wonder why they struggle..lmao
Yeah I listen to jazz a lot and didn’t find this to be meme worthy or whatever apart from the “woo.” It just sounds interesting. It just sounds like jazz
I wish I was smart enough to understand how great the jazz is. Well, I'll be damned.
The “wooo” is probably his sheer excitement when everyone were perfectly on beat at the end of his solo
I have been watching this daily for weeks now. More more I watch it, the more I get out of it. I agree with the other Jason below, this is with out a doubt the best 25 seconds on CZcams.
It still recommends it to me daily after 2 weeks later. I can agree with this statement.
Jason is above you, MUTHAFUKKKKKKK
I dunno man, this is really good, but have you seen? There’s a video of a horse right, it run’s down this track then it kicks a tree, farts on some dogs and runs away. Hilarious.
He's above you now...
Lmao you had a faith that both comments will be close to each other in the comments section
😆
I, at first, found myself very unimpressed. But with each subsequent playback ... man ... what beauty !!
へ
bro me too
100% agreed, he’s the reason I checked out Mingus
I hope this is a joke. This solo is crap.
@@IvoMaropo You're crap, you're saying
I have watched this so many times and the more i watch it i realise how perfect it is.
me too, the timing is brilliant
He's playing 32nd notes in terms of rhythm if you feel out the offbeat - reminds me a lot of tabla drummers like Hussain. Literally the only contemporary drummer I've heard that I can really say that about. I think that's why Mingus brought him in.
I was expecting these kind of comments from jazz guys. Me being a rock guy, was very unconfortable with some comments here like: "its just an average solo, listen to rush drummer..." Oh man, high level of arrogance
Are u guys serious? It's not a drum solo. Just a instrumental bridge
This solo is not good
A ten minute drum solo... performed in under 30 seconds. GENIUS.
The hands cry skill, eyes cry amphetamine. Combination is brilliant
that’s what makes jazz, babeyyyyyyy
Teeth cry dentist
Exactly right
Eyes, teeth, drums what a combo
The tempo seems more like heroin than speed to me.
Danny Richmond is underrated. I always thought he brought a sort of rough and toughness to jazz drumming that you don’t hear a lot of in the genre.
A lot of Mingus' band had that quality. There's a dirty, hard-edged brashness to their playing that gives his albums a feeling closer to punk or hip-hop than what we normally associate with jazz.
@@TheZigzagman Original Faubus Fables is one of the GRIMIEST tracks I've ever heard. Band getting nasty, Dannie spitting heat with Charlie... Sold me on Mingus right away.
I don't know if that's the best drum solo ever but Dannie Richmond was incredible and that band was one of the greatest of all time.
At first I thought that his solo was terrible. But the more I watch it, the better it sounds. Plus, it looks like he is having a great time, so a win-win!
People who think he's just randomly hitting the drums don't understand that not only is it all coordinated but it's precision down to how hard and soft he hits each note there's a burst of emotion on the snare and relief on the Tom's.
I think there might be some randomness to it tbh
@@DaveDexterMusic You phrased it ugly. It is called improvisation
I think that the fact that the rest of the band knew exactly when to come back proves your point...
@@jessejames6965The band knows when to come in because they gave the drummer a specific amount of time to solo (12 measures). That doesn’t take away from the truth of the original commenter tho
he's kind of playing randomly though
Those hi hats just look like they sound good.
I exactly know what you mean and love that feeling so much :D
foorrreaall
Definitely, one of my weirder qualities is a have a thing for vintage cymbals, back when they didn't have logos and looked very esthetically pleasing, and i'm not even a drummer.
Finally the CZcams's algorithm does something right and brings me this piece of pure beauty and joy.
That's the late Dannie Richmond, one of the greatest jazz drummer of all time .
He was nuts , on the drums and a little in real life. Mannn he was good
0:06 I love the expression on his face. He seems completely terrified like: "Shiiiiit! Was that too loud?!"
This is so damn bold and outrageous and we love him for it
This is freaking crazy incredible. Sometimes jazz is just this shambling hodgepodge that's kept together by some unknown force that makes it sublime. That was just a powerhouse drum part. The whole song is brilliant.
the great irony is this is actually a an epic drum solo
I’m so glad you isolated this small moment I’ve always loved Danny’s reaction and with Eric Dolphy blazing in right after him what a moment!
I've been searching to find this comment recognizing Eric Dolphy!!
Dolphy died 2 months after this, wild. Undiagnosed diabetes, the doctors assumed he was on heroin. RIP
counting them back in at 0:19 is actually incredible and downright charitable to make room for it in your solo
I was going to say it’s definitely not needed considering the expertise on stage and also the short simple song form, but, Danny Richmond is warping time in this one. Clip also starts too late without establishing flow which makes it even harder for me to keep the pulse through solo. I’m going to watch full video
almost forgot to watch this masterpiece today
The drummer is the “deez nutz” meme guy’s grandfather.
This may seem funny to some, but this is actually a BRILLIANT little solo. His grasp of downbeats is crazy.
Wish I could understand
Yeah , you definitely need to upgrade the definition of brilliant. If you think that solo was brilliant 😂😂😂
Drummer for 25 years, went to music school. Solo was dope.@@backspace9766
@azuriaatoll the solo doesn't necessarily follow any riffs or common patterns, so he wasn't necessarily going back into his musical memory bank on, what "is appropriate to say" for this stanza. Given that, you can kinda feel he's in the zone... where he is drumming but his hands are on autopilot... so he's playing and can hear it, but to him it almost sounds like it's from somewhere else... hence the woo! Sometimes dope shit just comes out, and it's as if it wasn't from you.
@@DJjakedrake Exactly. You can just count the time to yourself (he gives you a little hi-hat count every now and then) and you'll see everything's in time, even if some of it is polyrhythmic. He and the band all drop right back exactly where they mean to.
The way he played that solo is the definition of DYNAMICS.
First time watching: lol
Several replay later: WOOOO!!
I'm a drummer of 45 years plus. His crushed rolls and fills are tasty.
As a fellow drummer, I can tell you, it was either this brilliant solo, or a deadly crime spree.
The dynamics at play are crazy 🤯
yeah! I noticed that, very, very dynamic, which is what a good jazz sounds like
This is one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my miserable life.
-dad, why is my sister's name Rose?
-because your mother loves roses, son
-thanks, dad!
- no problem, best drum solo ever
Dannie was wooing at Eric's crazy sax line coming out of that - wanna see a solo, the end of the original video is pretty killer, even better, Dannie does a "mic drop" by walking off the riser at the end ha ha! Mingus kicks his falling cymbal stand somewhere in the middle of this video too!

The more I listen to this the more amazing it sounds
Same
so true!
As the story goes, several women in the audience experienced spontaneous ovulation as a result of that solo.
Props to the gynecologist that was there to measure it somehow...
Hey, I wish I’d written that review!! Truthful, satirical, funny, and….NICE!!!
I am dying over here! Lmfao ✌😆👍
A standing ovulation.
They spontaneously dilated too the .....charmed conclusion of trembling thighs!!! Bless the feminine!!!🌻
For those who aren't drummers: try to rigorously keep count (pretend you're a metronome) and feel where he's accenting and not accenting. You might get it
sad thing is that the uploader probably meant the title as an ironic joke at the man's expense. This solo didn't blow me away, it is seriously impressive. The drag between the down beats is un real. Never skips a beat, and waits to the absolute last second before he would get off time. This video should be renamed The Best Drag Solo Ever. It is insane how nimble and precise this man is.
Dannie Richmond was the bomb! He was Mingus lifelong rhythm section bud, excellent drummer!!!
If you keep time and count through his solo, he's playing and accenting on so many different offbeats, upbeats, downbeats. All with extreme precision, intention, and in time. Those that can't see why this is great and brilliant are not necessarily at fault. They just don't grasp the concept of rhythm, counting, and cohesion. It's simple ignorance.

I understand the meme but when we think of Mingus’ sound. Richmond was a huge part of it.
That's called "playing with dynamics." It was once an ancient art form among drummers.
For those of us connected to music like breathe, recognizing the genius, complexity and joy that this amazing drum solo created is not difficult.

This is honestly my favourite drum video of all time
this editing is gold
I love how after Dannie says "WOO" Charles immediately looks at him
The amount of taste and style in this tiny solo is staggering
I don't get it.... this piece of music is EXTREMELY difficult to play, yet this guy looks like he's not even serious, while at the same time, being REALLY into it and fkn NAILING it. "WHOAAA!!" indeed, sir.
Every once in a while, when I'm feeling low, or just had a bad day, I swing by here and watch this dude beat up his drum kit, and smile. 🥰
Other guy: How much dynamics are you gonna use in this solo?
This guy: I paid for the whole dinamic range, therefore I must use the whole dinamic range.
Dannie Richmond!
Mingus loved playing with Richmomd he said he wouldn't ever play without him.
I agree Dannie is one of my fav drummers
If you close your eyes and focus on what he's playing instead of on the joke edit, it's honestly brilliant.
This is actually painful when you're a musician because you want to laugh, but its actually kind of good, and it fits the song perfectly
If you call this a "song", what kind of musician are you.
A Jazz musician Christian.

@@TheStraatjutter In Spanish we use the word "canción" (song) only when there is something actually sung; otherwise, like in a instrumental jazz piece, we call it a "tema" or a "pieza" (piece).
@@txicocamotl we use all of these terms interchangeably in English, and it shifts depending on the person and their particular interest. For example a producer or recording engineer will call it a "track", while a jazz instrumentalist will usually call it a "chart", particularly when referring to an arrangement of a jazz standard.
