This man is 81 years old, if I even get to that age, being that sprightly and eloquent would be amazing. To still have that much hair… who am I kidding, I have less now! But he’s played with almost everyone I listen to and it’s great to listen to him talk - thank you guys!

Keltner is my favorite drummer, bar none, so I cannot thank you enough for conducting this interview with him. I mean, getting these kinds of insights and recollections straight from the man is like a kind of scripture, for me. Keltner is the embodiment of what I would aspire to be, as a musician. His taste, his feel, his astonishing creativity, and his respect and love for the music to which he contributes - he's a paragon, an ideal. Thank you again for getting together with Jim and documenting this. It's amazing.

Confused by some of the comments below (RE: VID DATE) ... Please, IN THE VID TITLE ... Time Stamp at least the Month & Year of this extraordinary, well balanced with the actual tunes, interview. I'm a drummer since 4 grade, with various Bands in the Bay Area '66-'68, USO Show in the Fall of of '66 thru-out Europe then I made a Left Turn and became an On-Air respectful loud mouth communicator between the songs on the Radio for 30 years and only Spot-Gigging with my kits in Sit-Ins. I still have my '62 Ludwig Chrome Snare and '63 Gretsch Kick and Toms + a 2008 7-piece. Jim Keltner is a Most Special, Versatile, Respected, Creative ... MR. Jim's Drumming-Life remembrance's could fill a library. Love the interview, Thanks ... More Please !!

Sang along with Gary Lewis & the Playboys, and many others mentioned here, as a kid listening to the radio. Later, while playing in bands, I started paying attention to the individual musicians who made the magic. The name Jim Keltner was everywhere. It’s great to hear his thoughts on it all! Fascinating video! Thanks!

11:50 While living in Spain I played with a drummer from Mozambique, I had never played reggae before though I always loved Bob Marley ofc. He was the one who taught me if the kick isn't on the 3 then it's not reggae. How had I never noticed that before?!

I can hear some George influence (e.g., Beware of Darkness) in Jealous Guy. A lot of what George was writing didn't make it on Let It Be or Abbey Road (except arguably the 2 best full length songs: Something, Here Comes the Sun), but John would have heard early versions of songs that were included in the epic All Things Must Pass.

I’m not even sure it’s learning… I think the best drummers just absorb a beat and are able to produce it with their body.
