50 ways to leave your lover! And then Carter Beauford "took it" for "Lover Lay Down" on Dave matthews Band album Under the Table and Dreaming. Nice tribute from Carter to Steve !! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXbXgIOMiqasl8k

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

@@removalenti2222 yes!!!!! Great grooves!

[@paulrevelli]

Steve Gadd's groove on "What A Wonderful World" by Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel and James Taylor is perfection in it's simplicity. And his tom fills always "lay" so perfectly. He is a super huge influence, and I'm glad you brought him into the zone. You and him are one in the same when it comes to laying down a sweet groove.

De nada hermano! Espero que tenga un día tremendo!!

[@rensonline2955]

Mr. Drum himself killing every beat! My god where were you as an inspiration 25 years ago?

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

I was 14 and probably doing a lot of practicing and listening to Steve Gadd, while practicing my drum corps music. hahahah. Hope all is well!

[@rensonline2955]

I was 16, playing songs from Black Sabbath. I wish I knew mr. Gadd back then. But: you are a true inspiration on any level! Great work in that new studio (and before)

[@jorgeosvaldoscheinin]

Claro como el agua; feliz 2021 !!!

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Jajaja gracias hermano! Me agradezco que te gusto!

[@davidmunoz8326]

Yo this video is so damn clean man. You've always been a huge inspiration and to see such great videos coming from you is a gift . Keep it up bro !

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Thanks David! Really appreciate it! Been able to really get into my camera gear that I have now and have finally been able to maximize their potential! Looking at upgrading my cameras this year, but it all depends on how well my channel does. I legit invest in the channel and use the earnings from the channel to get better gear. Thanks for checking it out and please share so we can continue to grow and put out great content for you guys! Cheers!

[@saad-rn2xy]

Yes man, excellent top playing

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

So glad you dug it! Really appreciate you taking time out of your day to check it out. Have an amazing day!

[@MarianoErcole]

Great lesson bro, thanks ! Also it's cool to hit the backbeat with the left on this grooves, it gives you more possibilities to play variations on the hi hat with the right :)

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Yeah you can, but you would have to change the sticking to do so. But nice Idea 💡

[@imacashew.]

Yo man have you been losing weight or watching your weight? You look like you’ve been kicking ass at whatever you’ve been doing 😅🤘🏻 Keep it up bro And I’ve been a fan ever since I found you from the GC drum off. You’ve inspired me and helped me over the years.

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Hey man yeah I have been losing weight and once i’m done I’ll be sustaining it. Have a few more pounds left but looking forward to reaching my goal. Thanks again for following my journey and hope all is well!!

[@drakausdromgatti58]

I have never had a youtube drum teacher drastically/instantly improve my drumming like you man. I cant say thank you enough. The preliminary exercises. The counting/breakdown of the beats. Adding one part of the groove at a time.... thank you so much...means a lot man

Спасибо огромное 👍

Thanks 🙏

[@jeffjohnson2624]

Frickin sweet dude! Good ol legendary Gadd licks-you can never go wrong there! I’ve always dug his groove for 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover but have yet to buckle down and learn it correctly.

[@jeffjohnson2624]

By the way, how do you like that Dialtune snare? I’m still on the fence about em.

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Great groove!! Yeah Steve Gadd is one of heroes man. Such an innovator and legend.

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

I really really really like it. Super versatile and practical. It’s a great studio drum. The only “cons” are it’s pretty freaking heavy (to lug around if you’re using it on a gig) and my earthworks mic clips don’t clip on perfectly to the rim, but it still works and that’s me just being SUPER PICKY, but other than that it’s a FANTASTIC drum! And the drum head changing is so so so clutch! For the price and the convenience it provides I would totally recommend it!

[@removalenti2222]

Check out Carter Beauford's version. He took 50 ways to leave your lover for "Lover Lay Down" on Dave matthews Band album Under the Table and Dreaming. Nice tribute from Carter to Steve !! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXbXgIOMiqasl8k

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

@@removalenti2222 oh I know I went through a huge DMB phase as well. Carter is amazing as well, but it shows the greatness of Steve and how he’s influenced all of us!

[@bobweber4140]

Awesome bro great work god bless this ones tough I’m use to crossing over to the snare with my left hand lol total different feel

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Definitely but so worth the effort!

[@rod-drummer7262]

Excelente lección como siempre. A simple vista parecen ejercicios/grooves fáciles pero hacerlos sonar con feeling y precisión en realidad no es nada fácil 😄. Saludos desde España 🇪🇸

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

¡exactamente! Definitivamente es difícil hacer que los surcos se sientan bien. Creo que eso es lo encantador de la “simplicidad” de los ejercicios.

[@lorisf3882]

Hi Carlito thanks for the upload - always loved this what I call ‘’Gaddadiddle” Early in your vid where you mention flams on 2 and 4 , the notation shown is L on the 2 and 4 , so that you would be playing a left handed flam but it looks like you’re playing a right hand flam - so should the notation be R on the 2 and 4 ? Cheers from Sydney

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Yeah you could, just move the right hand down to the snare and you should be good 😂 😆

[@DLCSquare]

great lesson, enjoyed it very much. thank you! on a separate note I'm wondering what app you're using on your ipad?

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

I use PolyNome App. It's an AMAZING app, but only for iOs users. So if you're a Mac person, you're golden. It's so much more than a metronome too and HIGHLY recommend you checking it out!

[@DLCSquare]

@@JuanCarlitoMendoza thanks :)

[@duaneritter1104]

What kind of hi hat u using

[@JuanCarlitoMendoza]

Hey Duane! They are Meinl 15” Foundry Reserve Hihats! Haven’t been able to take them off my drum set since I’ve gotten them 😂 they are 🧈 ❤️

Right?!!! Yeah it’s tough, but once you get it it’s so practical and gives the groove a really nice feel! Have an amazing day!
