Buddy Rich Triplet Lick

[@sonortubelug3853]

I've got a cocktail jazz gig at a funeral buffet later, which I can whip this out on.

[@anyITsolution]

Sonortubelug the moving to the left is not as easy for me I've placed my 10" tom between a 13 and 14 tom toms my 16 is also lower than presented here but very inspiring

Knock em' dead *Ba Dum Pish*

[@nealsausen4651]

Sonirtubelug: Nothing like a little sarcasm to start The day eh!

[@End-Putler4eva]

Out of the 100's of drumming videos available on you tube, this is the best !! Love the real sound of a well tuned kit and of course the ego free no b.s. manner of how Louie plays and speaks. Best drum teacher ever.

[@renebil7320]

Great sound of your drumset . . . and fabulous fast drumming! Buddy Rich would have appreciated this!

[@aking8477]

Thanks for not editing the stick click out right after 1:46. That makes me feel better about myself.

[@Cpt_Guirk]

@ 04:09 Best accidental crash hit. Such a genuine sound.

[@Andreas-yt9wv]

hahaha you are exactly right buddy!

[@robertwolff2627]

excellent...I am a double stroke guy (corp drummer) love the triplets ...lots of work to do...didn't have video's growing up...never too late right

[@wei-anhsieh2853]

Robert Wolff what corps?

[@popeyesailor9571]

@@wei-anhsieh2853 BD for me and son teaches there. saw buddy when I was 8 and then joined BD.

[@TheBakerman55]

Wow I'm old and have never seen a drummer that had that much speed and accuecy at them same time.

[@bRadicalmagic1]

There is a brief moment in the sequence where you actually enable my soul to FLOAT . I loved it & I am a huge fan of Buddy Rich !

[@jimmienahas4156]

Absolutely awesome thank you, this is a great triplet exercise. Buddy made this famous? Thanks again, tried the first pattern tonight and immediately felt good about the pattern. A new day tomorrow I'll work on the 2nd pattern on the toms.

[@rhythmfield]

I like it! And this guys a great drummer and clear communicator.

[@EricBerringer]

+Greg Burrows Agreed!!

[@jjjpetersen]

agreed & I need my kit to sound like that.

[@MrCherryJuice]

Excellent everything - playing, drum tuning and sound, explanations, pacing...even the speaking. Thank you.

[@drb_enraged_citizen5582]

amazing speed, and buddy rich was an old guy so there is still hope for me!! Great job and thanks for those sweet tips!

[@tontoncodish]

I had never thought of starting with the floor tom !!! amazing idea....

[@c3dmf4s]

Nice separation and clean execution. Very rare these days as you up the tempo most drummers get into the weeds but your values are as constant as they come. 👍

[@kevinn4592]

Always wondered how Buddy played that….thank you soooo much, mystery solved.

[@earlbrackett6742]

can you breakdown your gear, those drums are so resonant...great instruction.

[@JulianFernandez]

Louie is THE MAN! More vids with him, please! :D

[@jemmace2586]

Yes very nice, great tuning of the drum's as well.

[@michaelmattice4986]

Louie, thanks so much for sharing. The drums, cymbals, and you all sound AMAZING!!! Continued success! Happy drumming!!!:)

[@innornedoc]

He hit the sticks at 1.47. Happy to see that's not been cutted. He is a man like me! :) Vik Firth the best

[@borisnot]

Love the sound of that kit!

[@garryhayes8165]

cool chops , match or trad , all cool , love it

[@radu52]

one of the best sound i have ever heard!

[@agnostick1]

Very smooth hands, very nice speed. That being said, this video should be subtitled "How to play a fill that will get you fired from any band".

[@leehiggins7906]

Very insightful , always wondered what Buddy was playing there !

[@ellisweiner6405]

This guy is great! V. articulate! Plus big skillz. Thanks.

[@malinwj1167]

Louie, thanks for this lesson.

[@lanceh4653]

Great lesson, I can go to the wrong drum at low speed, and have doing it for years, using triplet fills, but I hadn't thought about the true implication of what a limiting factor that is in terms of speed. Thanks!

[@JulianFernandez]

The 16 to 10 is rad!

[@christianfraude4517]

Great lesson buddy ! When you hit that all important "Eurika" moment all makes sense in co-ordination & independence !

[@jonnycap7974]

this guy is wicked fast!

[@FD136]

Those toms sound killer!

[@Bob-nu3xe]

try and competed this groove, great fun to play get the body moving round the kit, trick I used think right hand and left will follow

[@Megamatthiesen]

Crazy speed....sounds awesome🔥🥁🔥

[@CesarYoachimFintz]

Nice sound and technique

[@cymbalism1]

nice work!! And beautifully tuned drums!

[@HereIsmarcus]

Many Thanks. A few days ago I was wondering how to go about tackling the triplet problem. I was wondering whether to do RRL all around the kit or do RLR LRL RLR and this vodeo really helped me. I'll definately practice that.

[@jaydiddle7167]

Great Licks / Drums sound great !

[@thewutitizband]

wow smoothness

[@drumseltzer]

Nicely Done! Beautiful sounding drums to boot!

[@warrenstrong4618]

Nice flow and feel.

[@marcusaurelius4884]

Well tuned kit - good pattern exercises..

[@lockdownmytownbykevinjohns6224]

Very good, Wonderful Drum Sound

[@523938]

Great Louie! that's really work! Thank you so much!

[@turnitback5243]

It's good to see you highlight the impossibility of playing L after L or R after R on different drums beyond slower speeds. It soon becomes obvious when sitting behind the kit, but is rarely mentioned in teaching material. The need to be on the correct hand after a combination to get to the next drum, cymbal, etc. Is a huge problem for percussion when sight-reading impossible and exactly what's on the chart, stroke for stroke, is required. Where a conductor, and other band members, don't appreciate these facts and think they know otherwise, it can be stressful and frustrating.

[@Jath2112]

Excellent observation. I remember as a beginner asking my teacher why things like paradiddles mattered, etc... and he explained how, one use would be to change your lead hand, or to get around the drums without getting hung up on a less ideal hand... I didn't fully understand it then,and he was certainly struggling to explain it better. But it has sunk in over the years, and things like this.... are in that same vein. Play for any amount of time and you will trip yourself up by trapping your own hands... eventually we work out how to avoid this.... it's a hugely important thing...

[@mystras100]

Super stuff thank you Louie.

[@hotlanta35]

One of the first fills I used to play when I started playing drums

[@bigdukepod]

Forgot to add that your drums sound great!

[@MrFilimn]

Very difficult when first practicing ,but keep at it and its amazing how quickly you can nail it

[@danoweston6185]

At 66, this is very difficult to do, but has improved my speed immensely!

[@nealsausen4651]

This is in the JOE CUSATIS Book: “Rhythmic Patterns for Drum Set” All of these variations and more can be found in that book literally hundreds of patterns for getting around the drum set with single Strokes with both triplets and 16th note patterns! Also many studies for crossovers one of the best books if not the best book for navigating the waters of the drum set! How artsy fartsy he is that! LOL

[@IzZyRaWr]

Louie is the man.

[@bigdukepod]

Thanks so much for the great lesson! Peace!

[@graememcdonald1547]

I've played the 9 note pattern in a 'swing' setting. Basically on every 1/4 note of a 1/4 note triplet I play a triplet. I admire so many drummers but I'm still waiting for one to make my jaw drop the way that Buddy Rich did.Try & find the tribute Jo Jo Mayer paid to Buddy.

[@rutherfordBHAZED]

Awesome dude!

[@dkelban]

Nice drumming!!

[@marcceleste474]

nicely done, Sir- Thank you!

[@jamesritzojr5964]

You are one great drummer

[@SXI96]

Awesome tutorial, thank you for this!

[@Steffentrommelt]

simple but great

[@BobVentura]

clean playing bro sounds good

[@nealsausen4651]

I believe this pattern (and many others) are found in the Joe Cusatis book; "Rhythmic Patterns for the Modern Drummer" Henri Adler Publ.

[@coasternut3091]

Bottom to top, that's a heck of a move at that speed

[@yogidrummer333]

Sounds like a Roller Coaster going up the tracks when he slows down haha

[@franzbeckenbauer2009]

Hahahaha omg i just noticed i was watching it on 1.25 speed. Bruh I literally didnt believe that was possible XDD

[@sonnyoc4455]

HQHQHAHAHAHAHA

[@jamesblace5761]

It is possible..

[@Dogdrum]

Excellent lesson!!

[@SuperDrumsforever]

Sweet lick.

[@bryeap]

[@2002drumsonly]

Excellent! Thank you!

[@ronaldpapa8182]

Great stuff!!!

[@MegaLJ3]

Thanx for the lesson.

[@Braglemaster123]

Buddy Rich is the worlds greatest 👍👍👍👍

[@hectordesosa4123]

Excelent excercise.

[@Braglemaster123]

Excellent

[@brunomaiamusic]

@VicFirthCompany I'm looking forward to seeing a video with Rick Dior.

[@criss857]

Great lesson... Thanks so much!

[@govercheck]

Even Stephen. Keep it straight like that drummers; Louie has the chops.

[@charleskennedy5137]

Very cool!

[@BrenainnJordan]

The 9 beat phrasing is cool, but without any accenting it becomes really hard to follow the groove, you have any pointers for adding some accenting?

[@robertolanz3691]

What hi-hats are you playing with in this video? Amazing sound!

[@s.goldberger4887]

Thanks - nice patterns m8!

[@adamannear]

what cymbals are being used? they sound smooth and oh so buttery

[@pintoodrummer9528]

Awesome sir

[@RC-gf8cs]

A underrated bk .not 2 wel known ..joe cursatis bks will get ur arms body moving .its not so much tech .but a movin rythm that gets u better at everthing ..luv em n he had drum shop he did my bearin edges decades ago .

[@badoocee1967]

Fluid. NICE!

[@arturofernandez6088]

Awesome!

[@psyne000]

I rate Louie - realy nice guy.

[@davidbarker7321]

I almost got it up to the same speed :) Cool Lick, but i can't find a way to relax my upper body when I move between the drums. You look so relaxed when you play it. Any advice on that? Thanks!

[@Onemodrummer]

David Barker, notice how you breath when you're playing. I learned this from a drummer, who learned it from a piano teacher...breathing technique-for relaxed playing.

[@pedromarambiodrums]

Nice and clear

[@ronnoten]

Great video....thanks

[@MikeJamesMedia]

Buddy generally played this pattern in a straight 16th note pattern, which made it seem more mind-boggling. (same sticking, but not as triplets) :)

[@daniloalbuquerque6238]

Very good

[@josephmonaco4503]

I just switched over to a traditional grip. My left hand sucks. Can you show me a way to develop my hands so I can have a fast Single Stroke Roll that is even. Thank You. Joseph

[@alexanderderbyshire5212]

He has incredible speed

[@webber977]

Amazing

[@ricardoreyessoto7483]

Is there any video with some tips for cover big gaps until someone is playing (faster)? Positions, techniques...? Tnxs!

[@Cpt_Guirk]

I think the trick is when you move right lead w/ the right and vice verse. You can move the lead hand over to the next position a 16th in advance.

[@ricardoreyessoto7483]

I will try. Thank you very much!

[@ErizotDread]

yes, I find this principle works well when playing switching chords quickly on guitar, as well as playing scales.
