Richard Pine I'm a guitar player and I have transcribed a few choruses of Mike Clark.

[@scottchard8447]

I love this guy forever Ridiculous skills Can play with anyone Ridiculous swing A master drummer I could watch this stuff and his other stuff all day

[@bigstef2010]

I remember his days with the crazy fusion band Brand X. Was awesome.

[@studiowizard6286]

What a great player AND great teacher you are!!

[@shjobsearch2195]

To learn shuffle, you need to listen to this video by Mike Clark. You also need to listen to every groove Bernard Purdie ever played in his entire life. Then you need to listen to other modern interpreters such as Jeff Porcaro's classic Rosanna shuffle. Then... maybe, Grasshopper, you will finally understand.

Great lesson Mike, and your DW kit sounds great, and it's one of the best I've ever seen!

[@horaciobonansinga9070]

[@tkeaneo]

[@Ramshackled17]

Far out❗️thank you ✌️🌻

[@constantkiffer7924]

I would like to know which kind of shuffle Art Blakey is playing on « One by One ». Thxs for your reply !🤗

[@rillloudmother]

Ah the shuffle, the simple groove that most drummers play completely wrong.

[@cymbalspecialist]

As a matter of fact...Mike Clark!

[@kurtpatterson1296]

Also,if you attempt to do any type of fills with shuffle grooves,they have to fit into the shuffle,lol.Usually these would be fills based on a triplet feel,broken up,or otherwise.

Mike, the Texas shuffle is also known as the Texas "Gut Bucket" shuffle, as it was once explained to me by Buddy Miles the way he played it on Rainy Day Dream Away from the Electric Lady land Session with Jimi Hendrix.

[@greggjarvis133]

you ain't kidding.sits so far behind and in between the beats it's almost flammed in there.so hard to cop

[@costageoref3309]

Oh YEAH!! 🙏

[@BPJazz]

Legend!

[@snarecat3441]

Wow! Pro drummer 100% ! With all the non sensible stuff out there today , here is the real cat! Thx for the lesson!

[@MortonLuvz2drum]

Exactly what I was thinking. Not a self-proclaimed internet drummer.

[@myroncohen7619]

The Clark is the Real Deal!

[@abouttheupbeat2717]

[@jimhuwe8]

I had a guitar player say: "Dog track." and I played to what the guitar player was laying down, which was the flat tire shuffle. It worked, so that's how I know it as a Dog Track.

Ïf you go to Chicago and call a flat tire shuffle Texas shuffle, the Italian mafia will throw you with cement socks down the Illinois river"
