These films are simply living proof that jazz drumming was all about the bass drum and snare drum, and even modern Drummers should fully understand that and learn this business first. Cymbals, high hat, cowbells etc. are extras, effects. If your bass drum and snare drum aren’t holding it down, even if it’s not IMPLIED, your stuff in the drums will not swing. Every single drummer on earth owes a bow and huge gratitude to the old guys of this generation and should really understand what’s happening here in these wonderful films.

I made this film with my father Barry, amazing to see its had so many likes. We spent a hot afternoon at Milford's house on Pauger st in New Orleans. He was a kind and gentle man. I remember he was a plasterer/builder by trade and outside his house was a low wall he had built that he had painted pink and then covered in silver glitter. Richard Knowles, my Godfather was present that day too. He shot the Chinee section back in 1962. My father laboured for hours on the Baby Dodds part, trying to get something approaching a sync. I made two other films in the 80's, one on street drummer Cocomo Joe, the other on pianist Sadie Goodson. Both films now property of The Historic New Orleans Collection.I continue to make films for Tulane University, and the Historic New Orleans Collection. If you are interested, both their archives contain many films and recorded interviews on New Orleans music.Many thanks, Emile Martyn

[@boogaleo]

hi Mr. Martyn, thank you so much for this important work preserving New Orleans and American music. I am researching early use of the term "Boogaloo" before the 1960s, did any of the elder NOLA drummers mention a rhythm or a style called "Boogaloo"? A colleague of Earl Palmer mentioned Palmer used a double-time rhythm called Boogaloo in 1957, I am exploring if this was a known rhythm in New Orleans second-line music. Thanks so much! Feel free to email me if you have any guidance or resources on this topic [e-mail]

[@TomiSimatupang]

Great work, thanks!

[@kentbyron7608]

Thank you emile504! You are doing a sacred act for the world, making documentaries to preserve music history. In my humble opinion, all great jazz musicians should have at least one documentary-biography about them. There's plenty of work to do! Gratitude!

[@johnfousek8991]

Thank you, Mr. Martyn! This whole film is extraordinary. Each of these drummers is a repository of so much history and musical knowledge themselves. The work you do and your family has done to record and preserve them is priceless. The Baby Dodds film in particular takes my breath away. I’ve been knowing his playing for over 40 years but had know idea this kind of footage of him existed. Such a pioneer and master of the instrument. Your father did a great job getting it in sync as well as he did. Thank you again for your wonderful, important work!

[@nosfy]

Thank you and your family for your hard and honest work preserving culture and tradition.

[@mcm3adows]

wow, one of the real drumming OGs. Im so happy that this history is now preserved for everyone to enjoy

[@slic535]

Drummer Buddy Rich cited Webb's powerful technique and virtuoso performances as heavily influential on his own drumming, and even referred to Webb as "the daddy of them all"

[@rockobar1]

Almost as a Dadaist film! This material is pure gold. Thank you!!!

[@althejazz]

Brilliant stuff and an amazing find. I don't think that there can now be any doubt that Ray Bauduc was a disciple of the great Warren 'Baby' Dodds.

[@dreamlover122769]

such incredible job you have done here good Sir I am a saxophonist but know my drummers too as I used to play back in the sixties this is pure heaven and you are a genius for which I am most grateful

[@nealsausen4651]

Baby does seemed like a very beautiful human being! Very innocence! And very very sincere!

[@creativedrumming]

Wow unexpected to see this today... Thank you for putting up! It's awesome to see him in real life and playing!!

[@frankalfar]

This is an incredible find.

[@johnedwardkeoniambrose1151]

I'm so happy I've come across this...I love it and say thank you ever so much!

[@bassbird]

amazing amount of finesse in those hand movements

[@craigiefconcert6493]

It was cool to see this after listening to the history of jazz drumming radio interview with mel lewis. They start with baby Dodds as #1. Then I listened to the baby Dodds trio album. Now to see the video with him is incredible.

[@llamedica]

What a treasure - thank you!!

[@Spzmeador]

These older guys never had a hi hat and sat on a chair, never a drum throne .

[@JulianFernandez]

thanks!

[@LarrySalzman]

Seven "thumbs down" The irony is without players like Dodds, many of the drummers those seven thumbs down types like would probably not be playing today.

[@marcusianguzman6240]

I actually watched a video on you tube of Thomas Lang saying the drummer's of the 1920s had sloppy techniques he was referring to Dodds and Arthur Zutty Singleton these modern drummer's of today have no respect for the drummer's that paved the way for all of us..he should've been more respectful...

[@dbfables]

just AWESOME

[@AceFurley]

yes! the good ol' days when an ashtray was a mandatory part of every trap kit, even for kids!!!

[@Hawiianlion67]

Now that a nice drum set

[@yunarukami14]

This is not Webb

[@marcusianguzman6240]

Baby Dodds influenced The legendary Chick Webb; also the Great Arthur Zutty Singleton influenced Gene Krupa as well.

[@TweedSuit]

First heard about Baby Dodds through my favourite drummer, Ginger Baker. I can hear the influence.

[@luizbackbat77]

Amazing Video! thanks!!!

brilliant!

Awesome ! Thanks

That foot muffle move!!!

Yeah! I've got to try that. '...But....Dude, what the hell are you doing to that drum?!?' 'Why, it's the Foot Muffle! You're honestly telling me you ain't never seen The Old Foot Muffle Maneuver...?' :-)

[@bluesky6449]

THANK YOU!!!!!!

[@robertboney4493]

Baby Dodds was the first jazz drummer...the main man!

[@Evens1]

Thank you! Sharing the link!!

[@JavierGarcia-du6qz]

I read in a new orleans drums book i think it’s vidacovich’s , that Dodds didn’t wanted a hi hat stand, even when they invented it and gave him to try it !!

[@SAHBfan]

Javier García - I've read a latish interview by Dodds where he said he had no use for one. Others have said he didn't like it because it conflicted with his left hand....

[@stefanalexanderlungu1503]

Who's here from David Bruce's video on percussion?

[@bluesky6449]

Baby, watch that right pinkie!

[@vipermad358]

I don't think Baby Dodds needs drumming tips from you.

[@drummer78]

bluesky Old school drummers weren’t so hung up on such things.

[@Steelers72]

Dodds and Blakey were big influences on Ginger Baker. You can hear Blakey in Toad.

[@thomashall9182]

So-called drummers of today or yesterday, Moon, Baker, Starr, are not drummers, they are phoney skin bangers who do not even deserve the title of drummers. None of them hold the sticks right, in the traditional grip which as any true musician knows is the only grip which offers ease of entry into any musical genre. Can you imagine Starr sitting in with Benny Goodman, or Collins with Harry James? But Gene Krupa would have easily coped with the Beatles, and Sonny Page with Genesis, get yourselves musically educated my friends, it is a long journey, but well worthwhile, I am still learning...

[@edsoph7006]

Many, many, many fine drummers of many different styles use BOTH grips, traditional and matched.

[@RSMGsndchannel]

Thomas H. Remove Mr. Bakers name from you list Ginger was indeed a fine drummer, just cause you don't like his playing doesn't give you the right to badmouth him. Respect!

[@thomashall9182]

@@RSMGsndchannel Well, first question, could he have sat down and read the dots with the Goodman orchestra? Replaced Krupa as Davy Tough did? Or even replaced Baby Dodds?

[@thomashall9182]

@@RSMGsndchannel A fine drummer, or fine drummers are drummers who play with big bands, read the dots, lead the band and play before people who understand music, all types of music be it tympanists who accompanied Kathleen Ferrier, Jazz drummers who backed the Monk, rock 'n' roll drummers who played with Buddy Holly, they all knew how to play the drums, they all used the traditional grip, which is as Buddy Rich one remarked, the only grip in which access to all the skins is easily available, [Buddy could play a drum roll one handed], if you prefer to see a drunken skinbanger flailing about, good for you, I prefer to see the sticks never more that 12 inches above the skins making more noise and in much better tempo.

I can definitely hear on this video Baby Dodd's melodic influence on Max Roach.

[@ferdinandwang1165]

Ginger Baker: If it weren't for Baby Dodds, you would never had heard of Gene Krupa. Baby Dodds taught Gene Krupa.

[@RSMGsndchannel]

Ferdinand W. Ginger was into Dodds not Krupa, Gene loved Baby but! said he practically learn everything from Chick Webb look it up!

@Bill Leyland Timpani players use matched grip. If you're referring to the specific type of grip timpani players use (with thumbs on top of the stick), that would be called French grip.
