*♫* JEFF PORCARO *♫* - ROSANNA ( ONLY DRUMS )

[@TheEnderBand]

People don’t realize how damn hard it is to play that perfectly in the pocket but keep that swing, it’s like incredibly difficult to nail the feel and dynamics… Jeff was insane

[@kevinsibert3160]

No greater musician died young like Jeff Porcaro. He would have only gotten better.

[@brianmcguire5175]

You are so right. On KZbin there are many a break down of this groove as demonstrated by prominent KZbin drummers but while some of those videos are commendable lessons , none of them are like the original! The missing element in those videos? Jeff had a feel that is so difficult to reproduce. I'm trying now though but not by watching other drummer break downs but by exclusively researching Jeff's own break down of his unique shuffle and also by listening to a lot of his records. I think we can re produce it but so far haven't heard it on KZbin by main channels with videos on the topic. Porcaro is historically a reminder of what it is we bring to music as individuals and not just as technicians or students of this medium

[@kevinsibert3160]

@@brianmcguire5175 he told me personally, at one of several of his drum clinics I attended (although I play guitar, not drums!) that "I Keep Forgettin'" by Michael McDonald was the toughest session he ever had. Said he was actually freaked out that he was going to be fired on the spot because it took him so long to get it right. He was so humble and only cared about the music. He was amazing.

[@brianmcguire5175]

@@kevinsibert3160 hey thanks for responding to my former comment! That's a cool insight you've shared with me here. My comment was for drummers, but as a drummer of some time I've long learned to want non drummer's point of views. Non drummers,ie other musician has been my primary source of gigs. Listening to guitarist preferences and singer's and bass player's wants too helped me get more gigs by catering for the composer's vision rather than being the standard or stereo typical drum part accompaniment or hired time keeper. Porcaro always represented that more musical ethos for buddying drummers before me and many other of his actual peers. It's here where he inspired me most. Your sharing his propensity for humbleness and relatable human fear further solidifies that for me. He cared about the song and then after how his contributions would affect it. you sharing this exchange you had with him is so educational for me, thanks for sharing this so!

[@DavidKauffmanMusic]

The fact that he credits Purdy, Bonham, and the Didley backbeat is a testament to his honoring of all great drummers! And he is one of the greatest!

"testatament to his honouring" - what does that even mean? He's one of the greatest - period. Can't we just recognize great talent without all the search for humility to make us more comfortable with our shitty selves?

[@turricanedtc3764]

@@GuynI2023 - With all due respect, I think you're missing the point. Of course "we" (as in any musician who came after him) know how unique and brilliant Jeff was... I suspect what the OP was referring to was that any time Jeff himself was asked about his parts, he would go out of his way to enumerate every single player who influenced the parts he came up with - and he would consistently play down his own creativity in favour of the players who influenced him. To circle back - any musician who knows their stuff should be well aware how brilliant Jeff was and is - and while I'm sure Jeff must have had some idea in his own heart of how good he was, most everyone who knew him insist he would never have accepted that accolade without at least explaining who inspired him.

[@intensity.density2208]

The more I listen to this, the more I'm blown away by the extreme level of consistency of every stroke. This is a level of mastery which is hard to emulate. There was only one Jeff Porcaro and there hasn't been a single drummer to this day that has been able to play it like this. And also those toms! My god, such a beautiful tone they achieved on this kit.

This groove should be officially changed to the “Porcaro Shuffle” So tasty and played with loads of finesse and grace.

[@Moluccan56]

What you said!

[@jaggass]

When the Rosanna tracks are isolated Its like a creation that's coming to life. You also can hear how much detail was put in by each member of Toto. Every isolated track sounds great and you can really hear the ghost notes Jeff P did. He probably did the drums on this drums in one take he was that good. He had to the busiest drummer of all time in the 70's-90's. People hired him because he had the best time in the world and was very versatile. He has played on over a 1000 records during his career. Words cannon explain how great this man was as a drummer and as a person. When he passed away that was the biggest blow for Toto. They almost quit after he died but carried on with his parents blessing and are still going strong today. Jeff P is looking down on the band and will always be with them.

[@nicholasjsanchez]

There is a story about Porcaro in the studio. The engineer ran a few bars of click/metronome in Porcaro's head set. Porcaro began playing a drum beat to the click. The engineer then turned OFF the click in Porcaro's ears but kept the click playing in the control room. Porcaro NEVER got off beat until about 2:30 into the click! And his variance was oh so slight. I think that displays the amazing talents of Porcaro. That's why he was one of the hottest pop/rock session players in L.A. and why TOTO was so damned tight!
