Philly Joe Jones Bebop Jazz Drum Fill - Jazz Drum Lesson

[@FloydianSoup]

Mr. X, I do not currently play jazz for I am studying concert and orchestral percussion right now, but I come back to your videos constantly because every lesson of yours I've seen leaves me so motivated to be a musician. In both how you take the time to break each aspect of a lick down and how you always show that you love what you do. Those things make these videos inspiring to practice. When I get back into drum set, these are lessons I would turn to in a heartbeat. Thank you for doing what you do.

Great lesson! Took me a while to practice but I got it down!

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thank you. Glad you got it down. Fun lick. God Bless, John X

[@tdrum21]

Very nice lick. Thanks!

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thanks. I'm glad you liked the lick. Best wishes, JohnX

Brother John X,, if this fill is from Philly on Miles' Milestones album, there was NO HI TOM, just Hats, a Ride a Snare a Kick & a Floor Tom my man !!

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thanks Adam. To be honest, I can't remember where I picked up this lick. It may have been from one of the first Bill Evans' albums that Philly Joe played on. All the best, John X

" Philly " Joe is my all time favorite Jazz drummer, Big Up Miles' 1st Quintet !

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Thanks for this video training-- Pilly Joe Jones is one of my all time favourites. I would recommend anyone to listen to the Miles Davis "Porgy & Bess" record and the track called "GONE" which features Pilly Joe playing the most tasteful fills that just make you wish you were sat next to him.

Does he use this lick in the beginning of Locomotion off of Blue Trane?

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

It's not the exact lick. However, Philly Joe uses the offset swung 8th between his hands and bass drum on the intro and during his solo. This is one of his trademark fill/solo patterns.

[@Panwhacker01]

Hi John, aren't the 1/8th's you are playing straight ? as I can't seem to hear any swing feel.

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

Actually they are straight 8th notes. But because the they are offset on the beat when you listen to each limb they are swung. That's what makes this luck so hip.

[@JensEmilMusic]

+JohnX Drum Lessons I do not understand this, care to elaborate? Also, what is the point of doing it with one hand double strokes, instead of just two hands?

[@JohnXDrumLessons]

+Jens Emil Jensen Either sticking will work. I like the feel of this sticking and find it much easier to move around the set at this tempo

[@dikbeats2720]

Never mind that, theres better, far less annoying drummers/teachers to see here on KZbin
