One of the greats. Mitch Mitchells biggest influence. I actually know Elvins daughter, Rosie, who lives in Stockholm, she lives together with a good friend of mine. Mike ”Red Mike” Eriksson a great guitar player!

[@timothymckenna1702]

Such a powerful attack! Wonderful!

[@robertperrella4194]

Great feature today! I’m always happy to see when you post a new review/ analysis. It’s a guaranteed watch and like from me, regardless of how good the featured player is. Your knowledge of the style and technique of each player is impressive and informative. The reviews offer great insight and find the good in even the less impressive solo clips, rather than flatly dismissing them with a negative critique.

[@robertperrella4194]

what i like about garrey's analysis of so many styles of drumming is his UPBEAT ENTHUSIASM !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Patrickrivasticksdrums]

Love how his snare sounds! Great show Elvin!👍👍

[@BenDowdy]

When I was a kid, I tried to play like Elvin Jones in high school. It didn't mesh well with the kind of r&b/ pop tunes we were covering, tho.

[@kevinwilkins3248]

Awesome. One of my all time favorites

[@jeffreyalexander7504]

A very free style of playing. Jazz in the truest since.

[@ryanj7517]

Full on assault! Love it.

[@bobblues1158]

It would be nice to hear the tune he is playing on so we know the form and melody. Because that is what Elvin is basing his ideas on. The melody is what all great playing is based on.

Killin' dem hats!

[@wyattlytenin7715]

Can’t believe you said that, Micheal...”Ju Ju” is far and away my favorite also!

[@michaelmarino3013]

@@wyattlytenin7715 glad it stirred a good memory of dear elvin .now I have to give ju ju a listen.

[@Logan-Wolverine]

Ho avuto la fortuna e il piacere di vederlo in concerto a Genovajazz 95: a dir poco un MOSTRO!!!!Grandissimo Elvin!!!

[@JFK1180]

You don’t want a slap from Elvin. In the end. Boooom on that cymbal. I see more clearly now where John Densmore got his fills from in songs like When the Music’s Over. Have not listened to Elvin for a while. Sweet

[@PowderedToastMan420]

Hi Gary. Will you ever react to drum cams?

[@DrumsetArtistry]

Already have :-) As long as they are drum solos.

[@PowderedToastMan420]

@@DrumsetArtistry I understand that drum solos is your channels format. I really feel that you'd enjoy checking out Vic Firth's drum cam of Danny Carey performing the song PNUEMA. Check it out when you're bored. I've never seen anything like it. 6/8, 5/8, 6/8, 6/8. Before the vocals come in there is a bar of 7/8. The first part is alternating 14/8 and 19/8: 3-3-3-3-2, 3-3-3-3-2-3-2, so it's the same first 14 beats for each one, with that little 5/8 tag at the end of the second measure. Mind blowing. ✌

there is no 'reacting' to Elvin Jones. there is only standing in awe of a true master
