Hey Quincy, this is pianist Johnny O'Neal. I would just like to extend my musical gratitude towards your approach of this music. You're so very detailed in your explanation, and I think all drummers should be paying attention, because this is the nucleus of what a drummer should sound like when playing this true American art form which is swinging jazz. You have all the essential ingredients. Looking forward to playing together again sometime soon. Much love, O'Neal with a long lasting appeal musically for you 👍💯

Philly Joe was a master at feathering. You can hear him feathering on the album with Sonny Rollins. The album was called Newks time. Philly Joe was a monster.

A little tip from jeff hamilton: play the fastest tempo you can first thing in the morning. (I used to put a cymbal next to my bed). Write down the tempo that you managed to play. And check after a few weeks how consistent you are. Of course some of us are more prone to injuries so its good to keep that in mind playing fast without warming up. Thank you Quincy! Really enjoy your videos and album recordings! Sounding great as always!

Hi Mr Davis ! Thank you so much for your precious advices. I've searched a bit in the comments but i don't think i've seen someone quite in my case, so here's my question (anyone feel free to answer obviously) : I've been drumming for 18 years now, have had periods of intense practicing or like not at all for alternate years, and as far as i can remember this was always something that would make me struggle for ever. Thing is i can now play everything pretty relaxed and not hurting myself, and i've been teaching for years these positions, and kind of same advices about not holding hard, playing with all of your fingers and keeping the sticks in the inside phalanges, "spreading" the motion and effort across every part of your arm. But i never achieved to do it myself haha. It instantly hurts and i can barely hold a full song. Even though i try to relax, progressively raising the tempo, warm up - stretch / take breaks, it's like it's all for nothing when i try it again or reach fast tempos. My fingers seem weak, my grip progressively tighten, my suppleness suddenly disappears and it feels unbearable pretty quick until i play only quarter notes or just take it slower lol. What would be your advice on getting over it ? Thank you and everyone !

I gotta tell ya, Q - I was following along, and understanding. And, finally, you got to what I've been working on - even at the pad: INTERACTIVE rhythms between the ride and the other 3 limbs. At the pad, or even using the hands alone, it's a heck of a lot of fun to mix in rhythms between the ride and the limbs; almost never using the standard dotted eighth rhythm. There are various ways of developing these rhythms - just explore; first w/o sitting at the kit. Start slow to get the feel of exploring rhythms with both hands - coming in and of the underlying pulses: unisons, opposites, rests, 1/2 time, double-time, poly-rhthms, accents, presses . . . thank you, so kindly, Quincy. Great channel !!

Hello again Mr. Q, I really enjoyed your lesson showing 5 ways to play Jazz from the Syncopation book. However, I find when I work on playing the first two ways, using alternating snare and bass drum my ride cymbal pattern turns into a shuffle instead of the traditional ride pattern. Is there an easy way to correct this? Thanks, Richie

Thank you so much, Professor Davis, for this lesson! You are presenting the precise information and instruction that I need at this very time. I have been an on-again, off-again part-time drummer since high school (which was a very long time ago). I have always loved jazz (thanks to my dad) and always wanted to play jazz, but have always struggled to play fast tempos, which of course limited my opportunities. Just a few days ago, I got to play a jazz gig with my son-my first gig in a year and a half. I really enjoyed it and it went well enough for me that I'm inspired to work on my jazz drumming techniques again. I also want to be able to play uptempo samba grooves. I enjoy playing many styles of music. When I was younger, I was too impatient to play music to focus enough on drumming techniques. Now, I'm all about learning and developing good technique. It makes all the difference. I appreciate your entire Q-Tip series!

best video so far about uptempo. what i discovered is, that once you got to a certain tempo and don't practice that much you'll lose a bit the quickness in your ride hand but you will never lose the ability to hear that fast. So when i play a gig when i haven't played in a long time, i'm able to make it feel at that tempo and let it feel relaxed even if my technique is a bit rusty and i'm not hitting every single note. So one of the most important things is to train your ears to be able to hear the fast.

Super cool Q! Some things you mentioned actually brought me back to the years I worked with Betty Carter.. You have to be relaxed, and breathe. It's so important to develop a report with the group and ride cymbal before getting too busy comping with your other limbs. I usually think of whole notes when comping and half notes if soloing during fast tempos. It can be applied many ways in terms of time feel or inprov... Happy New Year! Health and happiness brother. Let's talk sometime... BL🙏🏾🎶

hey i've been watching your a few of your videos and i'm still learning traditional grip but i noticed that you have your left hand further down the stick--like maybe 1/4. I was always taught to hold it in a rough 2/5 maybe for the stick to be able to rebound, is there a reason you do this and is the way you play like a different techinique?

Great observation! I adjust my grip depending on the sound and feel I’m going for. Holding the stick closer to the center can give you more bounce, while moving towards the back provides more power and control. I think it’s important to stay flexible with your technique and not feel restricted by any one approach. Different teachers have different perspectives, so it’s always good to explore and find what works best for you!

Did you ever find that Tony Williams clip you mention around the 7-minute mark?

Great lesson! I’m currently playing on the changes of Cherokee for about 15 choruses at around 390-400 with Arturo Sandoval. No joke! Any tips you might have for “way upstairs” would be most helpful.

Here’s my advice Markie Mark, PRAY! Ha!! Aside from playing lots of downbeats and trying to stay as relaxed as possible, I think just playing those kind of tempos with the same band every night eventually it gets a bit easier and better. But I don’t think that ever gets “easy”. Hope is well with you my friend. Gotta get you back to the school sometime. Had a ball! Be well Mark👊🏾
