Charli Persip How NOT To Play the Drums

[@MegaLJ3]

I met charlie in chicago in the late 60's. i went to late breakfast with him. He was one of the nicest people on the planet. I learned quite a bit from him.

[@63Baggies]

Wisdom, born of skill experience and humility...

[@romjab]

he has that jazz voice

[@Slickmickyoyo97]

Yeah, that's a cigarette and whiskey voice. He earned it, I'm sure!

[@MaxSenitt]

great book, I bought it a LONG time ago!

[@batouttahell454]

Great to actually see & listen to these players I only heard play on Radio and Records!!!

[@MegaLJ3]

Owrkeeng, Charlie has been around a lot longer than most drummers today and knows what he likes. I too enjoy old heads. If played correctly, they are designed to outlast you. Bright shiny drums need a whole lot of breaking in time. In many ways he can more than afford new heads but the heads are sympathetic to the hammered molecules between shell and head; which is why old vintage drums sound the best.

goofy

GREAT LESSON The magic is what you don’t play

[@gavinremedios7953]

Amazing concept that is well thought out❤

[@MegaLJ3]

Rather than encourage blazing foot and hand speed like the mass majority of double bass drum and multi-drum players, Charlie is talking music. I will buy a book that speaks from experience with some of the greatest players and advisers of all time.

You wont make too much progress playing what you can already play.... aka words of wisdom

🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@madmaxm]

The music playing constantly at the back while He's talking is probably not required in this context (as nice as it is). What He's saying needs to the focus of attention. Sorry, not trying be a jerk just saying this with Love. Thank You for these videos.

[@RexBenincasa]

Why does he need new drum heads? The ones he has sound fine.

[@wellesradio]

@OwrKeeng They were new yesterday. He just payed the shit out of them in the session before this!

[@rdrums89]

i think it would have been a little more respectful if the music wasnt played so loudly over charli speaking.

[@TheLazynutcracker]

this dude is smart

[@silva777]

Please don’t play music in the background when the man is speaking!! If the book is put together as poorly as this video I’m not interested!

[@kiefer12345]

You're*

[@jonasaras]

Step #1: Don’t show up to a gig wearing a night shirt

[@onesyphorus]

mf named afta a soda can 🤣

[@marccrossland785]

Cool pair of diddles.

[@retrorex]

IT would have been much better if NO Music was playing when Persip was trying to talk. It's very annoying!

[@Pianomanacymbal]

+retrorex use headphones and listen only to the right channel, much clearer, the music is almost all in the left channel.

[@OwrKeeng]

Get this poor guy some new drum heads!!

[@drumtwo4seven]

TRUMPET 🎺 IS SO ANNOYING AND PIERCING OUCH PIANO KEYS ETC✔️ SAXOPHONE ✔️ BASS ✔️ DRUMS ✔️ GUITAR ✔️ VIBES MARIMBA ETC ✔️ ---TRUMPET--- ---99 PERCENT OF JAZZ VOCALS---

[@marceibel1131]

I love Trumpet, i hate Piercings..😅

[@drumtwo4seven]

DONT TALK ABOUT IT TALK TALK TALK WHAT'S WITH THE TRITE RASPY CONTRIVED VOICE ?

[@MrColeycole22]

fuck that i'd much rather listen to ziggaboo, dennis,Bernard, or dave garabaldi play some funk music!!!

[@hotlanta35]

Yeah stop playing the same ol crap try some new things

[@MrColeycole22]

your drums also sound like they haven't been tuned in years bro!! your floor tom sounds like a rack tom!!

[@robertoricci3393]

+coley22 Actually they are well tuned. Jazz drums have very tight heads.

[@alexanderjdivic4784]

I know this is an old comment but maybe take a second listen, those drums sound tonal and distinctive. To my ears regarding many rock drummers’ tunings, the tom toms don’t always sound distinct and the bass drums sound like a toneless thud- is that what you prefer???

[@mrjimmienoone2130]

Funny, that Persip makes such statements. Nine out of ten records he played on, he ruined by his invasive, reckless, insensitive, senseless, explosive, overly extroverted drumming.

[@brunodomiter4415]

learn some respect dude...

[@alexanderjdivic4784]

Name one
