Steve Jordan drum solo w/ John Mayer at Verizon Center 2.20.10

[@nogoogleplus]

Every time I hear Steve Jordan, i'm like "damnnnnnnn"........ his groove is as good as it gets.

[@dieterjohnson3018]

He grooves so damn hard! Amazing intensity.

[@rdoetjes]

Steve is my favorite all time drummer! I loved him especially with the X-Pensive Winos he wrote some awesome songs with Keith.

[@LadyMissTella]

Every drummer wants that snare sound.

[@keeponrollin7922]

Charlie watts

[@TheMytes]

No

[@stevedrums1675]

@@keeponrollin7922 : Charlie's snare sound was much deeper.

[@drumz47]

The godfather of " DA POCKET" chillin in the cut.. Love u Steve!

[@ComoBrothers]

Totally AWESOME!!

[@zachhale7281]

My drumming idol, I draw so much inspiration from this dude, benny greb, and aaron spears.

[@onzkicg]

what i love with drummers (i want to be one too one day) is they seems like really playing around having fun but I know, even I don’t understand a lot of technical stuff happening there at the same time. Awesome Steve Jordan groove!

[@xfilemissing91]

what a snare sound.

[@keeponrollin7922]

Charlie watts has it as well,that's why he chose him to cover for him on the up coming shows this fall

[@GuitarsRule08]

man i was at the concert...cant believe it was 2 years ago...awesome show

[@tonymarinelli7304]

I have seen some of the most legendary drummers solo.Steve Jordan friggin blew me away when I saw him in Vegas about 3 years ago. He is the pocket, goove/funk master. He is my man. When are people goint to understand that soloing isn't about going around your drum kit doing a bunch of boring fills and double bass crap. This is awesome.

[@SuperStig23]

I couldn't agree more, in my 40 yrs in the music business it's been my experience the larger the kit the worse the player, if you are auditioning a drummer, make him play without ANY cymbals, 2 toms, snare, Kick and Hi-Hat if he can't get a good groove going on a basic kit then forget it.Wonder why John Bonham and Ringo sounded so good, a plain minimal kit well tuned and played to perfection, same with Purdy, Gadd and Steve Jordan. I think the best all around player is Jordan, he can groove like Purdy, Rock like Bonham and everything in-between

[@AudioTraceurMusic]

Of course, Steve Gadd uses four toms... Peart has a monster of a kit... Buddy Rich even used three and four toms at times. I don't think a large kit is indicative of anything. We'd hardly say that the best pianists use smaller pianos, so why the double standard for a drummer?

[@bcdrummer1962]

Actually you are right - large or small kit, many or no cymbals......it's what you do musically that matters. Charlie Watts, Steve Smith, Terry Bozzio - just randomly calling out 3 drummers with S, M, L kits......is one "better" than the others? They are all musical giants. Art Blakey said that you should be able to sit at any kit and play great if you are a real drummer. He is right IMO!

[@thomasnelson5758]

Steve Jordan is a fuckin beast. christ. The whole trio are virtuosos at their respective instruments

Thanks very much.

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

still love it!!

[@ggbchronicles7355]

U too?😎

[@preciouslouse]

Every drummer wants all of Steve's sounds :)

[@SuperAkira888]

Thanks.

[@rafaelburgos7567]

Impresionante

[@cookiedoekeith]

If I had to guess by the little guitar part I had at around 0:22 i'd say it was Super Bad by James Brown.

[@KhalDrogo76]

the king

[@patricianewman1272]

Great! ❤

[@kbj42016]

Yep, ILIKE THAT. Thanks,konstmusic.

[@terryvideo]

SO SICCCK

[@shootsbraw]

this is fucking amazing

[@Goodongbaek]

Crazy! Wow!

[@jnadle1]

If James Brown were alive today, he would've loved that.

[@SuperAkira888]

I'm not sure. but thanks for the reply.

[@papiumar]

Rock solid

[@hippeedippee]

oh ....oh ....oh dat BEAT oh damn haha

[@neilg3172]

its too bad about the rapper but that change at 4:38 is fucking pro

[@caspervanhelvoirt]

I think the groove is amazing after the rapper came on :) And the rap is about happy things, which makes it worth listening in my opinion

[@wojtylo]

looks like one of Tamas piccolos...correct me if I'm wrong

[@haywoodjablomi7550]

wojtylo it LOOKS like one but Steve's stuff is custom from Yamaha. that diameter bass is not standard. Yamaha has 2 different size Signature!! snares for him. yes it looks Tama though.

[@nobmarley806]

i love this kick ...！0:46

[@drumsun33]

スーパーグルーヴ！！

[@SuperAkira888]

Does anyone know what kind of snare Steve Jordan is using?

[@MarioChiodi.DrumStudio]

it's a old ludwig downbeat 14"x 4" i silver sparkle...for sure ;)

[@abercrombie1416]

I don't honestly know how Steve Jorden can do the stones tour🙄

[@keeponrollin7922]

Whys that? Hes a groove drummer and Charlie is too and along with that snare sound,hes pretty close too all the stones members,it oughta be interesting for sure

[@stokesdrum]

what song is this?

[@caspervanhelvoirt]

hahaha lol, but Steve is awesome too :D

[@SuperAkira888]

Only a real man can do that fill. 0:45

[@mortimersnerd7185]

I missed the solo. Where's the solo? Please re-title.

[@mortimersnerd7185]

I already said that. The title says solo when there's clearly no solo.

[@mortimersnerd7185]

BC drummer: Oh, sorry. I did not recognize his "solo" because of the other artists "soloing" at the same time he was soloing.....

[@Tokeletheon]

Yo Mort, maybe you should look at yourself even more often, check out your moves for the camera. You could be the next Thomas Lang, get up there where Steve is (killing it) and show everybody what a real solo sounds like!

[@hardlykinda]

Maybe a duet?;-)

[@ringow1962]

what was that? lol

[@Lehmann108]

That is the smallest diameter bass drum I've ever seen!

[@altie29]

crazy the tone he gets out of it

[@hardlykinda]

There’s also a sub kick in front of it...doesn’t hurt;-)

[@andrewsandoz8005]

What's the big deal?

[@banditY2K]

Not a fan of those little bass drums. Anything smaller than 20" diameter is a foot tom to me.

[@Mahavishnu80]

snare sounds like balls to me but great groove.

[@giniloh_channel2882]

Boring
