Benny Greb vfJAMS LIVE TRANSCRIPTION

[@ehsbe1056]

That solo is one of the most masterful pieces of drumming I have ever seen

[@nocturnodrummer]

"make audible groan!" :D This is just awesome! Thanks!

[@TimBuell]

hahah. Transcription has to be accurate!

[@maxmillman9477]

The following two bars after the "make audible groan" sign during the drum solo (around 4:18) are my favourite piece of drumming in the song; the motif with the 32nd note bursts that glance off the high tom that gets repeated until it "resolves" with the two juicy crash hits on (1 & the "and" of one on the third bar, respectively) is awesome. Also the sound of the rimshots is perfection.

[@ZOB4]

That must have been a huge task to make the transcription. Awesome.

[@TimBuell]

With how good Benny's drums sound and how clean his playing is...piece of cake.

[@samgreen8865]

@@TimBuell I don't think you have ever transcribed then

[@yogi357]

But, Tim is the person that transcribed this, according to the description above...

[@seanstiner7876]

Tim Buell How long does a transcription of this size and difficulty take? How hard was it?

[@ZOB4]

Tim Buell did the transcription for this video.

[@carpediem4179]

still it's about bennys flavour, very good flavour, groovy, and the time is very good,compliments benny, compliments, another drummer

[@jared1zn]

tim buell you beast

[@TimBuell]

Thanks so much. Just doing what I can!

[@brunorecagno6259]

Incredible transcription, thank you so much. I don't know what amazes me the most, if your hearing or your patience.

[@Howitchewstofeel5gum]

Man this guy. Always so groovy, so musical, so tasteful!

[@drummer542]

got the first two measures down, One measure per week, making great progress.

[@DailyDrumLesson]

Benny is just amazing!

[@TimBuell]

Agreed!

[@keithgreene79]

I'm enjoying following along with the transcription. My kids are learning to read and them seeing pics while they are reading words give them confidence to read more. I'm going to use that technique in my music reading.

[@ZackAttack1798]

Tim Buell you are quite the man. You have a gift to be able to do this!

[@guusverschuuren8495]

Thank you VF and Benny! This is just great!

[@TimBuell]

Agreed!

[@isaacleedrums]

That was super fun!!!!

[@mjm5081]

Love the Kid Charlemagne vibe in the guitar solo ❤

[@hgroton2078]

Just awesome!

[@glennholthuijsen]

4:14: "make audible groan" I got that down 😂

[@TimBuell]

hahaha same. Took a while to practice, but I made it happen.

[@DjGORILLARED]

DAMN.. PURE SKILLS!!

[@JakeStaffin]

This is great!! Wish I could find a transcription of the instrumental parts, Benny Greb's music is fantastic. I arranged 3/5 tel from his Brass Band album following the Moving Parts Live arrangement for a jazz fusion quartet for my junior percussion recital last year. I'm currently working on No. 1 from Two Day Trio for my senior recital. I'd love to play some of his Grebfruit stuff with a band some day though!!

[@TheCrazyhumans]

That snare sounds like a beast

[@mdrums1428]

is it weird that I'm actually excited upon seeing the full transcription

[@TimBuell]

No you should! Exciting stuff.

[@mdrums1428]

thanks man! your transcription is amazing!

[@hetbar6955]

Все сыграно с математической точностью ! Классный музыкант !

[@c3N3q]

Wow.

[@fabianonatureza]

Sensacional!!!

[@carstenmanz302]

90s Weckl-Style, old school jazz.

[@carlajams11]

Nice!!!!!

[@poipoipakapaka]

うますぎ‼️

[@진리-y7r]

Hello, I am preparing for college in Korea. I'm going to play this song for college entrance exam. Can I get a song that doesn't have a drum?

[@TheMerryPup]

If I ever see Benny walking on a concourse below me I'll know him instantly!

[@MessianicChristianFollowship86]

That stacker though..😎

[@samgriffithsmusic]

my god the latin section! so good!

[@ich_christian8299]

Hey, I know I am a little bit late, but has anybody still the version without the drums? I wanna play it at an university exam

[@decaftundra]

Couldn't find it. But take this version and the one with drum only sound, put it in a daw and invert phase on the drums only track. And voilà ! You have a drumless version.

[@jaimel2037]

That Mark maple syrup litteri on guit?😎

[@Popupdrumvideos]

First person to learn this entire thing note for note gets a private lesson with Benny???? Cmooon waddya say? .... although I guess learning this note for note is basically a private lesson in itself, so maybe just lunch then?

[@ediot6969]

Love the song and how he navigates it since day one, but I would have enjoyed the original format of the band never having played with each other and creating something new.

[@travieso1ruvalcaba672]

When I grow up I want to play just like this lol

[@JustTutupa]

No transcription for Eric Harland's performance? :((

[@Noobhead34DoesMC]

they said its too much improv or someshite

[@Popupdrumvideos]

Whaaaaaaaat....

[@경민짱12]

good

[@BlueBass2]

4:07 makes me feel some sort of way

[@ZackAttack1798]

BlueBass2 I was just thinking this

[@jacobsward_]

Hey Vic Firth, Michael here

[@drummadave]

Can you guys fix the play-along track? The drums bleed into the mix, especially on the solo-over-the-vocal section

[@jadielgoulart1]

Please Play along !

[@TimBuell]

Jadiel Goulart you can download the play along from one of the links in the description.

[@benjamine.ndugga729]

How can one access this transcription?

[@hendratangkilisan1698]

4:42 wow 32 note combine 32 note triplet

[@andrewlockhart517]

Bar numbers would be much appreciated!

[@maxmillman9477]

Agreed. Fantastic transcription all the same.

[@seven8time]

anyone else having trouble discerning the bar lines? :|

[@LukeZuniga]

Okay, but what's the song name? Cant believe nobody's asked

[@TimBuell]

Luke Zuniga Grebfruit

[@AndrewTBurt]

Who came here after watching the 13 years of drum progress video by Adam Tuminaro?

[@vaughanxaviermusic]

Nobody

[@Lukas-kh5gu]

god damn it I am always waaay too slow reading the notes along. it fucks me up.

[@edwardbrown2142]

Its a real shame they got the overheads out of phase. Makes those crashes nasty...

[@edwardbrown2142]

At least that is my assumption. Something weird going on.

[@EvilSonicVersonX]

i wonder why there's a camera cut at 4:43.....

[@FORC3.DNBOFFICIAL]

EvilSonicVersonX watch the video of the solo on his Instagram from when they first recorded it, they used a different take for the post-solo section because it was cleaner, I noticed it too

[@ryancox5097]

Whoever wrote this out is just massively talented at transcription. But why?

[@TimBuell]

Ryan Cox the hope is always that someone will apply a few things from the transcription to their own playing!

[@ryancox5097]

Good answer.

[@StephenTaylorDrums]

Ryan Cox Tim is the best transcriptionist out there. Period. I’ll put my money behind that any day of the week. He’s insane with what he hears.

[@bradenmacchia3737]

Also just the act of doing the transcription yourself is a fantastic way to expand on your vocabulary/stock of knowledge on the set

[@gryd3461]

the transcription is insane! but honestly the backing track is really obnoxious and they should've stuck with original grebfruit

[@terrytk9398]

Ok - can we start again please?Is there a human being who does the transcription of this masterful performance? Or is it software? Please don’t reply with any speculation as credit has to be given where due. Many thanks everyone.😀✊

[@petercampion9028]

Don't get me wrong, I love this transcription, but those dang lines for the hi-hat pedal just over complicates it and makes it so much harder to read fluently.

[@Robbie127]

Placing it in a separate voice would have helped, yeah.

[@TimBuell]

Peter Campion I can see your point. I find it helpful to have everything in the same system or in the same layer because you end up being able to see how every note connected (in time) instead of having to write broken rhythms with rests and all of that. It also saves a ton of room on paper and leaves space to write stickings below measures.

[@petercampion9028]

Great point, I can see how that would be useful. Oh yeah I can imagine. Really solid transcription though, must be so satisfying to complete it!

[@palsko8414]

It is funny seeing the transcription but, I will strongly recommend just giving a huge flying fuck in the actual transcription, for u guys that talked about learning the whole thing. Its gna take u longer to be a good drummer by doing that instead of doing ur own thing and fkin around on ur set!

[@ernieisgood]

1：25

[@maxmillman9477]

5:19 it seems Mickey Mouse loved the performance too...
