If anybody thinks that Chad's playing isn't technical, you have no idea what dynamics are.

I used to watch Chad Smith back in the 70s in a local Detroit band called Toby Redd. I think its great that he made it to the big time but honestly there are lots of drummers here in Detroit that are very talented that you will never hear. That goes for every city inthe world. There is no such thing as the best. When you start believing your gre atness you stop progressing . Play music because you love it and for no other reason. For 99.9% of us we will never be rich or famous but that doesnt mean we cant be excellant musicians. Practice as much as you can and you will be surprised how well you can play. You may not be famous but you can a well re s pected musician in your r own right

Groove is much, much harder to master/obtain than ANY technical ability. Groove can't be taught, it comes naturally. Speed and all that other nonsense can be taught. Groove > everything else.

Great points. Take chances, listen, trust the band (not always easy) Changing it up erynight. I'd go nuts playing the same exact thing every night. Peart is a perfect example. He's been playing that same solo EVERY NIGHT for how many years? Although there's lots of math in a band like Rush, I've never heard em take a chance. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be out there. Chad gets it.

regarding body movement, look at(one of my favorite drummers)Frank Beard. He always looks so calm & relaxed behind his kit & makes it sound s'oh sweet(my opinion). it's what ever blows your hair back. I was watching a good bassist on here TJH3113 & i was going to message him and say you look like a statue when you play.. get in to it.. shake your hips a little.. but he's a great bassist & if it 'aint broke, don't fix it. for me, it's always been, I don't dance to good music.. good music makes me dance. I asked my drummer once if he minds when i hit ghost notes on my bass strings.(it's a bad habit of mine i've learned to stop). He said what ever helps keep your rhythm.

Chad Smith a reliable, steady drummer who works well with other musicians because he doesn't get in the way. He's a hard-hitting Ringo Starr. I think his style is a bit basic and the "best of all-time" moniker that some people put on him are wildly out of touch. He's good. The hi-hat foot insight is pretty cool. I'm self-taught and my left foot is a little retarded (I do not play metal haha)

***** Its only my opinion and taste, chad a has a lesser vocabulary, but has more feel and groove than PC. That is what i look for in a drummer. Not trying to start an argument. And yes my profile picture might actually suggest I am a drummer. I respect your opinion though regardless and thanks for the reply
@bokunotraplord84979 жыл бұрын
Well the phrase "no one could play like _____" is kind of to be loosely interpreted. It not necessarily a ranking of technical skill or fame or anything. I guess the easiest way to liken it is that, as you said, you think Chad has a better "groove". I think groove is what separates all those musicians who are on equal levels of skill. Groove is how you use what you've learned to do, and what makes you stand out from someone else. So what Chad said about Phil is sort of what you're saying about Chad.
