Marvin is a gem on the Pearl roster. I love this and I'm happy to see you giving him a spotlight.

This Guy Marvin Smitty Smith is Truly One Of My Drum Inspirations. He is such a Masterful Time Keeper and Drummer that he has My Mouth Open Each And Every Time he Pick up a Pair Of Sticks. Marvin Smitty Smith A Job Well Done.

[@65Drums]

That first transition shot was nice!

[@stevekorenek2632]

Thank you for featuring him! He's a great person and player....

[@WillsMusicRoom]

Marvin Smitty Smith is the Real Deal !!! Always good to see the Champ at the kit making those Session Select's sound they way they should. Marvin Smitty Smith For President !!!!

[@PearlDrumsUS]

Thanks Will...!

[@jessepetas]

He’s one of the baddest dudes ever. Been a huge fan since I was kid.

[@blakedmc1989HD]

nice to see he's still at it! i remember him from Jay Leno :)

[@jakeklossing4352]

Session Studio Select is such a fantastic drum set. The price is something you can't beat, and the sound quality is extremely versatile. I will continue to support this line of kits as long as they exist (PLEASE BRING BACK MORE BLACK HALO GLITTER FINISHES!!!)

[@timcline2799]

Amazing musician. Excellent video.

[@thelocalzone]

Big Smitty! Humbled spirit, good brotha and damn badass drummer.

[@frankspikes7858]

I absolutely love this dude!! Met him twice at pro drum in Hollywood. Super cool, down to earth, and super talented. And very funny. Beautiful soul!!

[@alessandrorossini8704]

Although the man has plenty of chops to show, he's always searched for musicality first, as he well expressed with his own words and we all know it's true, he is one the best world-level masters. 👍🏼 P.S. This is a smockin' drumset...💪🏼

[@alkik4409]

What a talent!! He plays so relaxed and smooth, yet demonstrates power and speed, when it "serves the music". So musical, so tasteful. Yet, he never overplays, and is rock solid in keeping time. And has such a welcome, down to earth attitude. Pearl has so many great artists, and he is certainly one of them.

[@nybcbuildingmanager6770]

Man those drums sound great. And Smitty!!!!!!! What else is there to be said!

[@mbsom6556]

Minha top das top eu amo essa marca 😍🙌😎💞

[@oysterhead5150]

Just ordered a 6 piece in satin ash, can't wait!

[@PearlMan1958]

Nice to hear this drum kit in much better tom batter heads. Love the tuning used by Mr. Smith and he made them absolutely sing. Well done Marvin!

[@markkeneson6806]

That kit looks really nice.

[@dedrickp]

I have this kit (Gloss Barnwood Brown) and I just added an 8 inch tom.........SWEET SWEET SWEET.......This kit is awesome.

[@hyda-jameshill1035]

So good to see Smitty!! One of my favorite drummers!

[@JakeStaffin]

Alright, I'm done. You've sold me on this kit. I now see a Session Studio Select 10x7 12x8 14x14 16x16 22x16 in my near future, most likely in gloss natural birch with a matching 14x5.5 snare. Love the sound of these shells and how they can work for any style of music, which is exactly what I'm looking for with a kit. Please please please don't get rid of this lineup or the fantastic deal on this kit!!

[@gerardi2000]

Still great! One of my favorite drummers of all time! Saw and met him at Blues Alley in DC. I was able to scratch him off my bucket list.

[@BobbyJetty1502]

Love this dude's style and his K/Z hi hat's sound sweet. My 13in pair have been with me since 1994. Marvin keepin it real!

[@magatone1]

I have a circa 2003 Session Custom SRX. Sounds and looks beautiful- What a great kit that's been. If I ever get another kit a new Session is a top contender.

[@PeteDei]

So fluid

[@TheFfffff999]

GENIUS¡¡¡¡ NOBODY touches odd metrics like him,his touch with five elements ( S Colleman) IS UNIQUE

[@roybeckerman9253]

Always had great hand speed. Pearl Sensitone Aluminium snare.

[@georgwassner9427]

This is a really great sounding kit. Maybe my next one.

I didn't know that drummer before but from my first impressions he seems to be really good!

[@gmorton916]

[@Darkfatheroftheuniverse]

He is sooooo gooooood

[@bigtimedrum]

Marvin , is a one of a kind and Legend and an alright guy in person , LOL......thats my boy.

[@borgullet3376]

A Show ?.. Try THEE Show !. Literally The Greatest Drumchair in the entire history of television. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy - who also happens to be one of The All Time Greats ! - " The Road Less Traveled " for sure !

[@farshimelt]

So rare to hear a beautifully tuned kit.

[@Diksun4]

My man

[@Rob-dl4id]

What snare is that? Sounds amazing.

[@PearlDrumsUS]

That is a 14x6.5 SensiTone Aluminum snare drum...

[@SOGNAMETAL]

*CAN ANYONE ANSWER MY QUESTION PLEASE: is he the drummer on the M-Base Collective album Anatomy Of Groove? Thanks!*

[@PearlDrumsUS]

Saxophonist Steve Coleman has worked with many past and present Pearl Artists... Gene Lake, Billy Hart, Sean Rickman, and that is Marvin Smitty Smith featured on Anatomy of a Groove by M-Base Collective.

[@chowchichang2922]

There is an urban legend of a student at Berkeley ...who went into the drum practice rooms and suddenly heard the rapture of drums coming from one particular room . As he recalled it sounded like there were 5 drummers playing in the drum room ... as he stuck his head in .... it was The One And Only Marvin “Smitty “Smith ... practising !!!!! If there is one track that I would recommend any drum student to listen that personifies this man ..... it’s Pentacourse ..... on the Robin Eubanks album ...... KARMA !
