A Nashville Drum Session in 2020 Music Surgery - Ep.9:

[@JaviBello]

The more Dr. Bob's videos I see, the more addicted I get to them. Best channel ever!!

[@jamfactory4119]

Dr. Bob is the musical genius that we all wish we could be. Creative, skillful, exacting, articulate, flexible and fluid. Thanks Doc.

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks a lot man! Super kind!

[@8MinuteAxe]

Fascinating stuff. I really enjoyed the behind the scenes look. Thanks Bobby!

[@DH-zw6vz]

Killer video! Dr. Bob demonstrates how to take direction, listen, and quickly understand what the producer wants while adding his own ideas and creativity to the song. This takes years to perfect. Practice, practice, practice!

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks DOLB!!!

[@asawiggins]

The amount of times I ran this back to see how you were sticking the tom roll at 9:30... That double on the rack tom threw me off. Butter.

[@BobbyHuff]

Haha!!! Thanks man. LLRF...I think...

[@danieldalton8224]

Sounds great... nice drumming... love that 70s sound.... love both songs !!!!

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks Dan!!

[@stephendawg1]

Seems natural to see you behind a kit. The algorithm suggested your video and your name was so familiar. So, I did what any curious computer user does... I googled you and saw you grew up in Alexandria. We played together a half-dozen times at Anderson East Side on Sunday night when I went to AU and you were a mere teenager. It’s so great to see your success (and not surprising)! You are very talented and a great teacher. Thanks for the content. Blessings!

[@BobbyHuff]

Oh wow man small world! I learned a lot playing at Eastside and Paul Yerden was always very nice to me as a kid. Thanks for hanging out and watching Steve.

[@MikeYusi]

Another great video and lesson, but next time, any chance you can do it without the drum parts?

[@BobbyHuff]

You don’t like drums because you can’t follow them...

[@carlosclaptrix]

Pretty hard work!

[@gatherstudio5219]

Those cymbals may cut through but they sound kinda harsh

[@donniebobb74]

guess I gotta start making charts for myself that I'll never follow now :) Challenge accepted!

[@robbiehuff9879]

Killer groove...great feel. Awesome video, very cool process to watch.

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks man!!

[@bjh3v]

Always enjoy your videos and learning how things are made.

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks Horton!

[@tsho5934]

You make it look easy. Its not easy. thanks for the video!

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks a lot! Many many many years of practice!!!!

[@mochs3869]

For 40 years this is all I wanted my career to be - and be on the mixing side of the glass, too...but it wasn't meant to be.

[@BobbyHuff]

Keep going MIKE!!!!!

[@mochs3869]

@@BobbyHuff Thanks, but I quit playing 5 years ago. Sold every piece of gear I owned and just came to grips with it was just not going to happen. The Elvis Aloha from Hawaii cover video I did on my channel was the last thing I did and then I sold everything.

[@cary3428]

I’m sorry to hear that. I couldn’t possibly stop. Why not pickup a new instrument, just for the joy? ✌️

[@mochs3869]

@@cary3428 Thanks for that - but that's why I quit playing any music - I lost the joy, and I can't get it back. It's what depression does - makes it so you don't enjoy things you used to anymore.

[@lesliethomas152]

I’ve always had a thing for the drums/percussion. This was fun and educational

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks for watching Leslie!

[@thaddeusodonnell3986]

That guitar sound on that second track is pretty outstanding, interested to know what's being used there. My best guess is a Les Paul through some serious gain pedals or rack unit, doesnt sound like a kemper to me though. Very unique..very rock steady. Also the harmony effect almost sounds like a tc helicon

[@musicproductionvideos5019]

Near the end of one of your videos it looks like there is a big speaker with a red light flashing to the click. What was that? I can't find which video now. Thanks!!

[@forthecreator1]

My favorite Larry Norman song!

[@rfbooth]

This is very cool. I somehow don't think of drums being dropped in in sections like this, but I guess there's no reason not to nowadays...

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks Rick. Yeah they’ve been punching in drums like that for 50 years or more..

[@toddscot4988]

Awesome. I get so hung up and playing EXACTLY to the click......

[@BobbyHuff]

Well Todd this is quite an in depth subject....perhaps worth doing a video on.

[@toddscot4988]

Yes, please.

[@JustJoelOnYoutube]

Dope

[@wesleymarkmusic403]

9:20 Did you say DISCO? Ok, just wondering. LOL

[@davidallenhammond2777]

Excellent, thanks a bunch. What mics did you have on the toms, sounded sweet.

[@bfehderau63]

Looks like an sE V7, fantastic snare mic as well!

[@dpinskey]

Song one’s dums and bass could be laid in on a QOTSA song. Song two has a cool Lou Reed vibe meets David Bowie vibe. Respect!

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks Dave!

[@simply3141592654]

Would love to hear about the Jeff Lynne drum recording method. Controversial but cool.

[@BobbyHuff]

Will def do one on this. Controversial?? Only if you’re Stan Lynch... haha

[@davidallenhammond2777]

@@BobbyHuff Ha ha

[@timothyschumacher7707]

Lol. Great Song...I can tell what it is without a doubt.

[@BobbyHuff]

Thanks Timothy it was a blast to record! I think its out now...

[@dreib9660]

The crash cymbal on your right is giving me diabetes...sounded better in the mix. I could maybe do a nashville session I just want the song a few days before to work on....lol!

[@BobbyHuff]

All Good!! Unfortunately you have to make it up on the spot! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@dreib9660]

@@BobbyHuff Your channel is going to blow up , just getting in comments now while I can. Great content!!

[@BobbyHuff]

@@dreib9660 haha thanks dreib. I appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@lucasgiorgetta8038]

The resonance note from the snare is in the key of the song. Was that done on purpose? Awesome video btw!

[@JohnLaco]

Yeah. He has a video specifically on that topic. Check out "The Perfect Snare Every Time"

[@alanunseld4942]

do you always write out the charts?

[@BobbyHuff]

Yes eye write a chart if there isn’t one provided. I find it’s always great to have a roadmap to look at and know where I am in the song.

[@alanunseld4942]

👍🥁

[@ddrummer1821]

Man I see these "here's a look inside a real session" vids and they're all the same. show us the real dirty, warts and no make up. I wanna see how you line up on the grid or better yet with yourself what's your attacks like are they even? Show us that!!!

[@BobbyHuff]

This session was exactly how it went down. No editing as they wanted that real feel. There are many sessions like you are speaking of and I’ll show one in the future but this session was shown warts and all! Thanks for watching.
