This is gold . Kenny Clare was an incredible artist. Acknowledged by Buddy Rich & more

behind the beat is so fucking difficult!

Best example I found. In this case the least 'talk' and more 'do' helps viewers understand the best.

Thank you!

THANK YOU !!!!

thanks for sharing!

This has single handily made this whole concept make perfect sense to me

this is great!

🤟🏻

Nice one !!

i started to conceptualize playing behind the beat in swing like: the "and" note stays fixed, but the quarter note shifts a bit to the "right" or later, so the effect is that the 8th note stream is strateneitned out. i think i heard it from adam rogers guitar player. you can even put this on a sextuplet grid to practice it in an exhagerated way at a slow tempo: |X...x.X...x.X...x.X...x.| becomes |.X..x..X..x..X..x..X..x.|

If the drummer is the beat, then does this mean Jimmy Page was always rushing?

Looks like the ride is what is being moved here, but i was told in other styles (besides jazz) its the snare. Is the bass or hh ever moved in other styles?

Is it just the ride changing or does the HH change too? And, If the snare wasn't so syncopated & lets say it was landing on 2&4 would that be affected too? In short, does everything change or just the ride?

Terrific flowingv interview...its more like a chat and jazz hang..They've obviously got a lot of respect for each other..I was present that day on Cork with the drum off with Dessie Reynolds.. and after I remember helping Kenny with his drums.. A nice man through and through. Thanks for posting.

Aged 15/16 my jazz mad dad paid for me to go to a 2 day master class with Kenny. I could not keep up with the challenge, but Kenny's playing was fantastic and he was great fun.

I prefer Ta De Ki Da Tum instead of counting! It's much easier to say, especially in fast tempo. Check it out.

Awesome exercise!

Behind the beat beast = Bonham

This is KZbin classic

Superb 😊

Very good 👍

Anyone else here wanting to play a Tool song lol

Grateful you still make appearances and love the setup

Damn our generations are falling apart to say the less. There’s so much knowledge available where we can keep this together without being ashamed of your culture or embarrassed

Amazing

Conor, thanks for generously sharing your technique! Really easy to follow!

I’ve never had (or even really seeked) any formal music knowledge and I’ve only played in punk and metal acts ever - playing simplistic guitar. This just blew my mind wide open. Incredible work and you’ve inspired me to practice my ass off and learn. Thank you

I have admired your drumming so much special request show me a buddy rich lick slow to fast

Beautiful 👏

thanksss

This is great. Just what I was looking for to understand it. Thanks!

Hello Conor I just signed up to your channel special request can you please show me a buddy rich practice pattern for me to work on I would really like that dedicate it to boom thank you

Awesome Conor!!

insane talent really

you are sick!

👌super merci 👍

Well done. All you drummers/musicians..and folks who get it Examples of songs/performances/recordings with guys playing ahead/on top would be appreciated. Behind comes natural for me.. need to acclimate

Lovely method!!!! 😀😀

Lovely rendition of an amazing song! Any chance you can post the lyrics? Cheers!

❤

Great clip! WP plays beautifully on the Dave Pike album Pike's Peak (1962). Bill Evans piano; Herbie Lewis bass.

Wouldn’t everyone just wanna play on beat?

I really want to learn this do you have notation ?

I could write a complete album based on you!

I've sampled your drum song in 3/4. Contact me please! Bears hiding tricky!

How do I contact you? I've made your drums sound different, however, I'd like to make music with you! ...that issue just amazing playing! Want to join a project?

Conor, I think this is one of the best videos you've done. Magic.

thank you !!!

These make my head mush. Can't get them under foot! Thanks for sharing. Great channel. Criminally underrated
