Max Roach Phrases Are So Cool, But The Way You Improvise Those Phrases Into Your Solos Are Sooooo Tasty 👋👋👋

Quincy, no drum teacher makes me want to drop what I'm doing and run down to my drum set the way you do. Thank you for the inspiration! Slightly related story: I took a Jazz History course once (after I had given up on being a music major), and in a mid-term paper I transcribed Max's neat 4-bar fill from "Move" as an example of "theme and variation" on the drums. The professor loved it and I ended up helping him with a bit of research for a paper he was doing on Baby Dodds!

Your drums sound great !!!!! Is that a Ludwig???

Quincy Man great video. I had a chuckle because you remind me of Bernard Purdie a couple times.

Unbelievably great Max Roach is still the man

More marvelous material

Is it who i think it is? Haha! There is a give away!

죽인다

Nice pitch bending solo!

Nice 🤌🔥

I'm back and subscribed!

Nice tuning! That’s a great sounding kit. Good playing too.

Beautiful

ok, haha. I get it finally. I thought maybe a new rudiment(?), but now see the flip flops 😊

I might need a little bit more than a KZbin video to know these phrases 😂

Sooo good an useful!!... A question Quincy, there are some folks on KZbin talking about coasting as a technique or strategy to solo. How could that be used in a jazz context? Thx

Hi Quincy, I have just finished a transcription of a Bill Stuart solo from the Modern Drummer Festival 2008. Would you mind taking a look at it, since some of that stuff is hard to notate and I‘d like to get some feedback on that. Best, Christian from Germany

Once again, you make the material extremely understandable and feel like learning it is attainable. A true gift you have!

Great stuff MrQ, thanks again👏👏👏🇦🇺

hello quincy. gotta say you just might be the best bepop youtuber on here. love getting these licks and applying them. another great one quincy!

Thank you so much for giving these phrases out! If you don’t know, I have to play in the style of Max Roach for my TMEA All-State Jazz Audition! That’s because we have to play Stockton Helbing’s “The Etude Also Waltzes”, maybe you can get him up on a video again :) lol!

I’ve been wanting to get a pair of your signatures and haven’t been able to find any. Are they still being produced? need some!

Verbatimly is your big word for today.

Thank you so much for this lesson, I'm working on being comfortable with playing live with a click/metronome. I needed this one for sure

❤

Another great vid, Q you are the bomb!!

So nice phrasing - Thank you man :D

Quincy - great! Love these. Also love your bd sound. Question - do you use a wood beater? Or hard felt? Or ?

I totally see where Gadd got those 16ths from!

Hey Supa Q from Ned in Spain Again. Wowee ! These are some classic Max moves and sounds, so well laid out and played by you. You make these and the Philly Joe riffs swing so sweetly and demonstrate how they transform depending on your speed and placement. I agree too that getting a handle on the 6 stroke roll is essential . Thanks again again and again. Keep cool and stay well.

So glad you shared some of your banquet! I will be chewing on this for a while!

Yeah “Q” I love this, thank you for putting in the work, your amazing! I appreciate you.

Sir, thank you for another wonderful video! Tama drums are also my favorite drums. At the moment, I also bought the model for beginners, almost the same as the Imperialstar, only in my opinion even better logos and aesthetics, and the quality is exactly the same! It's about Tami Rhythm Mate series! You may have seen it on the Internet, but the shells are 100% poplar, the same diameters. The only thing is that I bought a set of 22" bass drum. The upper toms are the same 10/7, 12/8 and floor tom 16/15! 22/16 bass drum! My point is that I have been playing drums for over thirty years and have played every possible brand of drum in various classes. But these Tama "entry level" models are really great for the money. Only the skins must be replaced immediately, my suggestion is two-layer for poplar! All the best!

Pure gold, Quincy! Love it!

What a blessing it is to have your knowledge, insight and resources on youtube!

Curitiba - Paraná - Brasil. Let's gooooo...

Thank you again for you help with the download 😊! And Thanks for new input, let's goooooooooooooooooo...... Greetings, Klemens

Awesome, Mr. Davis 🥁💎🥁👏👏

Excelent lesson as allways! Greetings from Brazil!

Claaaasssssss!!

Congrats and thanks: You answered about all the questions I had about reading/interpreting drum charts in one single video, plus you shared a lot of wisdom, e.g. about preparing, leading, and listening to the fellow musicians and the overall sound.

Yes, Buddy was the greatest drummer ever for many of the reasons you state here: the creativity, the precision, obviously the chops, not to mention what he did for the world of drumming. What he could do with that left hand alone was more than I could ever hope to do with both of my hands no matter how many years I worked at it. I saw him perform one time, a couple of years before his death. WOOOH, indeed!

I like the 7/8 version.. Ta ta ta-ta ta ta ta-ta

Been searching for this forever ❤

That was cool.

fantastic!

Great Lesson Quincy !! Thanks.

Great lesson, yet again. My number one struggle is to transition from simple time to double time or halftime and vice versa. I understand that the quarter note remains the same. But the transition moment is where the struggle happens. Do you happen by any chance to have a video on this topic? Or maybe a good idea for a future video 😊. I subscribe to the channel but didn’t find a video on the topic. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!
