Peter is a musician. He plays the drums. He doesn't beat them. The drums are a musical instrument.

[@buzzc5219]

The truth.

[@fred7630]

Can't agree more !

[@stephenkavanagh3560]

Not musical at all. Drums are percussive ( Latin , meaning to hit ) they essentially keep the tempo , I play drums . They are important !

[@stephenkavanagh3560]

Can you play , “ Oh danny boy” on the drums ? ( nyet, nicts nada no)

[@NathanFiorentino]

@@stephenkavanagh3560 "Melodic" and "musical" are not synonyms. Also you're ignoring centuries of musical repertoire in which percussion doesn't serve solely (or sometimes at all) as time keeping, i.e. classical percussion. Not that keeping tempo makes an instrument unmusical anyways.

[@carloscappellini1687]

The best weather report drummer by far.

[@metallicarocks911]

That kit sounds like a dream. That bass drum is to die for!

[@jonjohnson4283]

Feels like I just left Hot steamy New Orleans. I think I need a shower now.Thanks Peter you're amazing.

[@eurobennati4754]

what a fu...g trio . father&sons BRAVI E GRAZIE

Amyzing awesome drummer

[@joeldrummer23]

Drums sound awesome

[@ronvillarreal5003]

One of the worlds greatest!

[@roybeckerman9253]

Very open sound from the drums. Love the 4 piece kits. Not muffling mad , like many today.

[@btsdrummer1]

Peter is a smooth cat. Hats off to his boy on his performance as well👍🏻

[@MegaLJ3]

The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree....what a killer trio.

[@dagostinoification]

I LOVE IT ! Souvenir de "Nice France avec Step Ahead !" Amitiés Peter ! GREAT DRUMMER !

[@unfinishedideas2]

The part of the drum solo at 6:55 messes with my brain o_0 Erskine is the man!

[@stanislawrybinski]

Triplets grouped in 4's are goood!

[@CampbellYoungblood]

Stanislaw Rybinski ugh yeah just the orchestration and where he starts the groupings makes the brain have to work to retain the original pulse- especially where he ends the triplet phrase and transitions back into more of the 16th swung feel... probably just watched that part 20 times!

[@cassandrajmarie]

Stanislaw Rybinski so half note triplets in 4’s ?

[@keithbryner40]

Wow, the cymbal work is heavenly!

[@randydoak6638]

Cool. Erskine plays a swampy New Orleans feel. That cat can play anything. Although he has "chops" to spare it's his feel, man.

[@andrewyka]

Master trio!!!peter Damian Erskine+Hamond.

[@willmurray222]

andrewyka talk about the holy gost strokes. otherwize not gospel.

[@drfiberglass]

I like the back beat groove… Praise Jesus...

[@bonzo10000]

wow peter is smooth

[@rtanidean4931]

Oh boy was that freakin groovy. Time to go play. Thx guys. 🥁😛💚

[@johnoullette4908]

that's my groove - love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@dieconashi]

Saturated with feel instead of volume. Peter is an incredible musician.

[@roberte.tewksbury7601]

GOOD JOB PETER!

Peter the "King of groove"...

[@juanramonfernandez311]

Hola desde chile ...grande Peter un swing increíble

[@bhail2831]

Love it!

[@joecaroselli5858]

Peter Erskine is a fantastic all-around drummer. This cat played with Stan Kenton and swung like mad. He can also underplay, and play straight grooves and just accompany-- when it calls for that. Here he lays it down and plays musical, funky grooves. That... to me... is a GREAT drummer!

[@Yaboroqe]

The Master!

[@JORGE_JOJO_CARRILHO]

Balanço do caraças.... Muito bom, muito groove :)

[@endmok]

Groovy baby¡

[@norbiacacacaa5313]

[@miles-178]

it would be perfect to get Gary Novak into the studio, ´cause he´s got tons of his own chops and tricky licks since early 90´s

[@BobSchoepenjr]

Peter with his magnificent under my ....’skin’ solo...

[@dannydescalzo]

Peter is SO greasy!! ...love it!

[@gravitydrums1391]

Saw him play with maynard a long time ago . what a great player.

[@aroutiounkarapetian6099]

EXCELLENT

[@MrViglioni]

FERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@israelreal930]

Que bonita manera de "solear" del maestro Erskine.

[@diegojasca]

muy bueno muchachos!!!!!!!!

[@realwhiteboyboyd5441]

Bass @ 4:40 mind reads the organ lick coming.. 🔥

[@brocki95xxx]

I always love seeing these tall muscular hard rock drummers that think that they are complete badasses behind the drumset :D this proves again how Peter Erskine who looks like a regular old man can actually blow these posers right out of the water. Erskine is one of my favorite jazz/ funk drummers. Most jazz drummers just do crazy fills around the kit and seldomly have any groove. Erskine can play subtle and have crazy groove and he has amazing groovy drum solos! Just an amazing drummer.

[@SMBDTC]

+brocki95xxx Amen!

[@Ericdrummer1]

Ohhh yeahh***

[@Drumkey17]

Smooth

[@vkavcic6]

yeaaaahhhhh........

[@bradclifford1220]

Is that Karl Pilkinton on organ ;)

[@badfozziebear446]

Brad Clifford An idiot on organ

[@stretch54]

That's John Beasley (this time) on organ. Look him up if you dare. He's a great keyboardist.

[@MrMrh1958]

Top draw drumming as always!

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

like it!!

[@FanaticDrummer]

The Organ player is like singing the melodies ha

[@cassandrajmarie]

What a swinger

[@markbozz153]

Dey some Cooool Cats, man!

[@chrishitsthings]

The organist looks like Karl Pilkington! Erskine killing it as usual

[@janivelic2316]

These drums sound phenomenal. I adore Collector's drums...some people claim they don't sound good for jazz but I don't belive that... Can someone tell me if this is Peter's son on the bass? Awesome player!

[@Treebot1]

That's his kid on the base? he's a God damn beast!

[@TheRealGospelChops]

Damian is Peter’s nephew.

[@raylombardo4186]

Wrong.....and you mispelled BASE!!!! What are you referring to? An Air Force Base? Learn to spell.

[@yarpyarp85]

oh, seeing those dry complex cymbals 20" and 22".

Jerry "the king" Lawler on bass.. :o)

BON Fuck'n'Roll. Futuru.

[@cjolaguera5469]

dang I didn't know pilkington could play

[@farshimelt]

He may be able to but that's not him. John Beasley. It helps if you look at the credits.

[@thelopeisback]

don van vliet on bass

[@kingsweetfly5745]

that bass ...i don't know man .... a lot of those notes are so low they just sound like a rumble underneath the groove .... Peter sounds magnificent as usual

[@steffenbrix]

Yep!

[@genez429]

The bass is really tight and deep.You just made me realize how good my audio system is. Get a - BBE Sonic Maximizer 282iR. Musician's friend is having a clearance sale..

[@farshimelt]

I have no name, cheap, headphones and I could every note.

[@KVL34]

The bass player is as groovy as a machine gun!!!

[@MrMillsfrank]

You know that's his son on bass right?

[@DavidMaximMicic]

[@ronagoodwell2709]

That was soooo tasty.

[@coldducktime8338]

Karl Pilkington!

[@rogeruntel9369]

Damien is a great bass player, Peter wouldn't bother if his nephew couldn't play.

[@jeffreykazanjian2399]

In the beginning, is he hitting the snare along with the hi hat with his right stick? Or is he just holding it like that to constantly hit the shoulder of the stick?

[@mjwhyte7556]

snare and hi hat together

[@manditorygaming6566]

That Bass player's face 😆😆😆😆😆😆

[@mannymonteiro]

That's Peter's son!

[@mannymonteiro]

on bass...

[@bryankilfoil6838]

Nephew, but yeah... royal lineage!!!!

[@VassilisArt]

funk / 2nd line - shuffle..

[@avaboot]

Karl pilkington ha ha classic.do u think Carl would like this music.

[@ewansalter1602]

thought it was just me who saw that guy XD

[@thebarak]

Hilarious. I wonder if the organist knows about Karl P.

[@TheFeghoot]

Great meat, great carrots, great onions, but no stew.

[@sumstufflol]

very well put

[@luiseduardo4655]

On keybords Ney Conceição and Bass Gavin Harrison kkkkk

[@gospoJov]

What is the ride he's using?! sounds awesome

[@Monsterdrumma]

I think it is the dry complex ride 2, the second model of the Bill Stewart ride.

[@5iveThumbsUp]

I thought Peter Erskine was going to play bass lol

[@mikekechula6628]

Someone just needed to shout "praise the Lord!" Then it would've been Gospel. Pretty slick though...

[@SidLaw500]

How about the son on bass!!

[@SidLaw500]

A master f'sho!

[@ontamarah]

anyone know what's his right-side ride, the one without rivets?

[@LaJoMa87]

K Custom Dry Complex Ride. Bill Stewart signature model.

[@jeffreyalexander7504]

little jazz sized drums with a pretty traditional bop/jazz tuning and "gretsch type" DW drums....wide open...GET OUT! I can't figure out why he switched to Star drums. These sound so sweet to me ears. Maybe it's just me?

[@farshimelt]

The same heads, with the same tuning, on the same size drums, with the same sticks, played by the same person, will sound similar.

[@birdland75]

why fodera imperial is there front of drum set? sponsor...lol I have never seen damian erskine played fodera

[@jujubabou]

birdland75 It belongs to Janek Gwizalda who played in a previous vid with Erskine Son and Dad.

[@birdland75]

i got it..thanks

[@roybeckerman9253]

I wonder why he went back to Tama....It’s usually the other way around.

[@estebanfreytes]

Didn´t dig anything but the groove of peter erskine... He really dont need the other 2 guys..

[@Samsgarden]

Agree. The bass playing was too elaborate. He sounds like a well-rounded schooled musician. Boring.

[@steffenbrix]

Agree..

[@SuperFlanders123]

@@Samsgarden Mhm... Trying to get in all the real feels... Somebody's on stage,Lol.

i really like yur performance especially Mr Damian. sir will need your help. I am expecting an answer from yu.thks

+larry temp he plays holy ghostnotes thats for sure

[@DRUMIST327]

원본으로 듣고 싶네요 플레이어의 연주는 나무랄데 없이 완벽하지만 지금 이 동영상 만으로는 소리가 너무 답답하게 들립니다. 피터 어스킨 선생님 광팬인데 원래 이런 소리가 아닌데.. 다른 파트도 소리가 너무 벙뜨네요

[@itsjjp]

This be funk. I don't get the reference to Gospel. Okay, so there's a cat playing an organ, that doesn't make it gospel. This is funk, good funk at that, but not Gospel.

[@aaronu.8303]

"Gospel Chops" is more of a term for enthusiasm in set percussion rather than a strict name for the kind of music this channel's supposed to show you.

[@larrytemp3063]

itsjjp RIGHT I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO GET TO STEPPING WITH THE HOLY GGHOST

[@jalanjones7310]

Great drummer on a toy drum set. SMH.

[@mrbeaucastel]

The very beginning was copped from Idris.

[@pputnam100]

other way around

[@he8082]

Not one of Erskine's best. Then again he is massively overrated by some very rhythmically challenged people.

[@dennydee]

Hu Amm Eye . Lets see your stuff so that we can compare. Huh

[@he8082]

Or you can see OTHER drummers on youtube who really shame Peter. Next you will want me to name them right?

[@dennydee]

it is impossible to argue with a fool. Go and look Gerald Heywood and get an education. this discussion is closed Who am I and get some spelling lessons

[@he8082]

This is not about whether you or I have skills. What I am saying is that Peter is not nearly as good or inspiring as others. And anyone who thinks he is, probably needs lessons.

[@brettcattell]

playing music isn't about blowing everyones mind with your capabilities on your chosen instrument. It's about playing for the music as a whole. You don't get to play on 600+ albums and film scores if you're no good. Yes there are guys out there that can put more notes into the same about of space and if thats what your into then great. There are guys that can play rhythms so complex you lose when the beat is but they know exactly where it is. again, if thats what your into then great. The best bit of advise I ever received for playing music was "Play what you want to hear". Peter throughout his career has played music the way he wanted to hear it and has enjoyed doing it. I personally don't think you can knock somebody who has made a successful career at anything especially if it's doing something they love. And as for your 'he is massively overrated by some very rhythmically challenged people.' remark. Peter's genre of choice is Jazz. One of the more complex genres out there. Winning a grammy in that category. Along with being Modern Drummers Jazz drummer of the year 10 times plus being inducted into their hall of fame. And as for your comment on people 'probably need lessons', Music isn't something anyone can truly master. Everyone will spend there lives constantly learning and anyone who says otherwise must be pretty ignorant to the art form. People play in different ways. Everyone has their own spin they would put on a piece of music. If everyone had the same vision of how music should sound there wouldn't be very music of it out there. Not everyone can be inspired by everything and if this doesn't inspire you that's fine by me. But there is no denying Peter Erskine is one of the modern greats. Live life with and open mind. Take care, Peace.
