I've been "going through the motions" with my playing for many years now. John - your lessons are refocusing me on fundamentals, many of which I haven't exercised since high school - 45 years ago. You are a phenomenal teacher. Thank you so much for inspiring me, and God Bless you. You are in our prayers.

Douglas, Thank you for your comment. I am happy to hear that my lessons have been helpful. I appreciate you taking the time to write this as well as your prayers. God bless you my friend, John X

[@garyguthrie1507]

Thanks John,really cool playing! Looks like new heads and maybe a new snare drum?

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Glad you like the lesson Gary. I started using the Aquarian Modern Vintage heads on this kit and I'm very happy with the way they sound. The snare drum is same one I've been using on this kit since 1980.

[@MrDannyg77]

It's interesting the way a mind works. I was trying this exercise out and doing fine until the ride and snare together part (I'm a long ago decent drummer who is taking it up again in the later part of my life). Then I was just absolutely not getting it. Until I decided to score the beat out on paper. Then bingo, I saw the pattern and was able to do it perfectly. Crazy.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Excellent. Glad it worked out for you. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, John. I have the pleasure to listen to you and learn. I would like to buy a book from you. But there are some complexities you. I am from Russia.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Andrey, I'm glad my lessons have been helpful. I'm not sure how you would get my book in Russia. I don't ship out of the USA. You might try Amazon in Europe. Best wishes, JohnX

[@andreystepanov7597]

JohnX Drum Lessons Thank you John! Excellent communication. Jazz is a magnet. Those who were made of non-magnetic materials will not understand. Time changes the contours inside the brain, it is a pleasure. I will try to find the book. Good luck!

[@khash5189]

Awesome videos! Can please you tell me what the drum pattern is on the snare?

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

This snare drum pattern is quarter note triplets. God bless, John X

[@Silvaterista]

Always a pleasure watching Mr. Xepoleas teaching and playing. I have a question: would you do a series about jazz fills with brushes? I've seen a lot of drummers playing fills with brushes just on the snare drum and the colors and sound they get out of that drum are incredible. The other thing is that there are times when brushes can't "substitute" at all the sticks and trying to play a fill with brushes that you play with sticks in those situations just doesn't work... Keep inspiring us Mr. Xepoleas! :)

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

+Fernando Silva Thank you for your comment. I'm happy to hear you've been enjoying my lessons. I plan to do some lessons on brushes, but I can't say when I'll be able to. Stay tuned my friend. For additional lessons you might consider membership to my online lesson site. There you will find over 70 videos and transcriptions you won't find here on KZbin.

great!

[@TheProfessorWilliam]

Hi John, as always nice job. I watch your lessons a lot. I am guessing you like John Riley. Thanks again.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thanks William. Glad you dug the lesson. I respect John Riley, but am not that familiar with his work. Best wishes, JohnX

[@TheProfessorWilliam]

I just thought since you both teach in the styles of Jazz. Keep up the good work.

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

Nice simplified lessons. Drummers invariably mute the cymbals when done.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thank Vernon. I'm glad you liked the lesson. Best wishes, JohnX

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

John, I noticed when doing the triplets between bass and snare, some of times you are not keeping time with the the hihat.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Vernon Steinkamp I will play the hi-hat on two and four when it’s comfortable and adds to the rhythms I’m playing. I try not to be obsessed with playing it on two and four all of the time. God bless, John X

[@Michael-Philip]

I can do this, but the swing ride pattern is very hard to keep going !!!!!!!!!!!

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Yep. Take it slow until it becomes muscle memory.

[@eldiepon1]

my right hand in the jazz swing get lost in the solo :(

[@331paradiddle]

great lesson just a minor detail. when you are alternating between bass and snare you are not playing the hi hat, sorry im a stickler for detail. adds a dimension of independence

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

I'm glad you like the lesson. I always played this with the hi-hat for the sake of independence, but when I recorded with the hi-hat part it didn't groove as well is it did without the hi-hat. I later had a conversation about this with jazz drumming legend, Colin Bailey. His response was, "It's all about how things feel when you are playing in a band. Nobody really cares if you are playing the hi-hat or not". So there you have it. Best wishes, JohnX

[@andreondrums7841]

I also noted that! I guess only a rigid purist would object. Love the reply.
