    We really should praise the camera person/TV crew for filming a close-up of Buddy's hands at just the right time!

      Good thing they weren't on acid. Whoever filmed Hendrix and page and ppl from that era where always zooming in on their forearms or just the tip of their fingers. Funny, but ridiculous for things that other angles don't exist at all for certain techniques to see what they really did

      @dassitdassall Před 8 lety +3

      They all do but in my opinion Austin and Louie Palmer are the best instructors online. They're more than just about licks. They get into the technique, approach, orchestration, etc.
      More of that Mark Guiliana mind set.

      Brandon Kain Anytime! Juan Carlito Mendoza, Jerohn Garnett and Larry Belton, Jr. are awesome as well...
      I just personally prefer learning an approach, it's applications and how to orchestrate them. It involves a bit more self-learning/discipline but I find it much better vs. "Learn a chop" lessons.

  • @pussymcstanky
    @pussymcstanky Před 5 lety

    When I saw that you managed to pull of the open-closed technic I was AMAZED! I had seen another video of a gentleman describing how to manage it and he was saying something along the lines of 'you have to alternate between your index and ring finger with one being extended and one retracted and switch between them in order for the drummer to mange to kind of "throw" the stick at the drum'. I couldn't really understand his explanation (although his playing was superb, just as yours is) and you have REALLY helped me to progress my playing technic on a topic that is quite challenging! So, again, THANK YOU!
    Great content! Keep up the good work!

    @Warpedsmac Před 5 lety +1

    I think Dick Cully once noted that Buddy's placement of the Bass drum was so precise (but not impossible) to cover little "rests" that he takes on the left hand bounce roll. Your slow-mo shows this too. New drummers find this kind of stuff very inimidating...your videos really help in showing the learner how to progress. And to all learners out there...Don't let Buddy get on your nerves!!! Great channel Austin.!!!!

    @farclebaba Před 7 lety

    Jesus... He was truly the greatest. Good lord of the dance! Not only is his application of this difficult technique incredibly musical and tasty, but the two handed pattern at the end is just impossibly fast. I really do think he had more hand speed than anyone. It's just total madness. I think this is the clip that Weckl refers to when he talks about the one-handed roll technique. He says something like "except Buddy does is twice as fast, for twice as long, and his hand really doesn't move...."
    Great breakdown as usual Austin.

  • @drummingisdreaming4386

    Excellent videos! I just found your channel via Vic Firth and now I follow them, I've learned a LOT from your Weckl, Carey and now BR videos. Well done my friend. Don't EVER feel bad for not being Buddy Rich, NO ONE was Buddy, except Buddy, the man was an enigma. Keep up the great work.

    Austin, this is the first I have seen you. Your manner of presentation is easy to listen to and nicely broken down. This technique is above my skill level in totality, but with work and breaking things down to the basics in smaller portions, I could master it to a much better level. It seems fun, and while neither of us can get as good as Buddy, it is nice to know we can do our own versions of the man. Thanks for your vid.

    Austin. Your instructional videos of the great drummers of our time are amazing. Buddy's, Joe Morello's drum solos and John Bonham's Moby Dick ( Live ) are really impressive. Your break down of complex concepts ,in a manner which are easy to understand and duplicate is hands down the best I have seen and heard on YOU TUBE. I also love the fact that you transcribe everything you break down which is a huge plus for me. I don't have a great ear for figuring musical pieces out, but if shown to me, written down ,is much easier for me to duplicate . Thanks for all you all your hard work. I love to see a video on Austin Burcham own drum solo !

    Your explanation and demonstration of what Buddy was playing demonstrates just how amazing he was. While it does look like he's just playing a random solo, nothing planned, everything just coming as he feels it, your break down shows he planned every note he played. Besides the complication of his drumming, his speed makes it beyond comprehension.

    Great video! If I recall correctly, when Weckl was demonstrating this technique, he mentioned seeing Buddy do it, but noted, "Except he did twice as fast, for twice as long, and he didn't move his hand." XD
    When I would see Buddy in person, you could always tell the drummers in the audience because we'd all just be kind of shaking our heads, especially when that one-handed roll would start up or when he would suddenly explode around the drums like he does at the end of this lick. Still amazes me, and I've never seen anyone do it as casually as he did it. You're getting there, though! Nicely done. :-)

    I just came across this and Frank, you are right in that you can't do that as shown without using traditional grip. HOWEVER, it can be done if you use the technique known as push/pull. It's a diferent pathway where you can get the same results...except with matched grip in the left hand.

    Good Morning and Happy New Year. I've also slowed Buddy down to see that technique and noticed a couple neat things. One, is that Buddy seems to have been a lefty, playing a right handed kit.Also, physiologically, his thumb in very long and able to be pressed out flat against the stick. (left) also, take a look at the length of his sticks. I haven't quite found any that long in any store yet, so I think they were custom.I don't think he was open closing, but double fingering with the thumb then index...using his thumb for the 1st press, then index for the 2nd. It is easier to see in his other videos, such as WSS (Buddy Only), in which, by the way, he does a left handed press roll at the end of his solo.Man O' Day, I miss that guy. The Old School Drummer 101 (CZcams) is very close to Buddy's technique. and you're very good at these videos. Thanks,PCFXR4U
