@@ElEsteparioSiberiano you’re so beautiful, thank you 😭 he gave me the greatest gift, my son Layne, who turns 9 yrs old this Friday. Chris and I love rock n roll, so we decided to name him after our favorite vocalist of all time, the late Layne Staley ❤️ he would’ve loved your covers, for sure.

Obviously your chops are beyond incredible and watching you smash slipknot etc one-handed is unbelievable, but it's an absolute pleasure to see you kicking back and grooving to some classic rock. Tasteful and masterfully controlled. I'd love to see you cover more of these "easier" songs. Update: Just so folks know, I've been drumming for 27 years, so my mention of this as an "easier" song is not intended to disparage it in any way, just highlight that it's not as technically profound as some of the other tracks performed on this channel (which I think is a good thing).

[@stickgrinder]

This! Chops are funny, but musicality wins hands down, and this song is serious stuff, not just timekeeping. More of those man, more!

They did the fade out on Sultans of Swing because it was a long song and radio stations don't like long tunes. The live or Album version is the full length as it should be. I saw them play this live and my God they rocked.

I don't buy this "radio stations don't like long tunes" argument - I mean to some extent, but I don't think Pink Floyd's "Confortably Numb" or "Pigs" were ever made for radios. Or Pantera's "5 Minutes Alone"... This was some bs fad that to this day gives me BDSM-level of edging when I listen to some of my favourite songs. And maybe the "edging" was for the artists to lure people to live concerts to hear the whole songs - sell more tickets...? Who knows. F- annoying tho!

Drum machine ability but the danger is to becoming obtrusive to the music. One may overtake the singer with overly long drum fills at key points in the song. As a drummer, outstanding but as a group member, fulfilling a role of support is challenging for this man. Song is very nuanced and vocal transitions are gentle and cannot be obliterated by drums. My point? Less is sometimes more.

It's strange actually. You play all your instruments like they are an extension of your soul, it's quite astounding, because, being a musician myself, it's extremely rare to see this. Mabe once, or twice in 40 years have I seen this in a musician. It sends shivers down my spine watching you. Back to The Sultans, one of my favourite songs to sing, the only thing I could say about your technique is that you play the rhythm too exact, (if that's possible) I mean if a metronome was clicking away, you probably played every beat one thousand off the true click. Unbelievable! If you're ever in Athens Greece, look me up if you need anything. ❤

Hello Senior Siberiano, thank you for this video, this also one of my favorites and it looks so simple when you play it (and it gives me hope I'll be able some day !) ok I know, it's not a question of talent but only honest hard work... but then again... ;-) And I find it especially respectful of you not to "siberianize" it by adding your trademark spectalcuar chops, reminding us that drumming is not only that but more deeply a question of grooving. Thank you for your work, so versatile, and so humble even when you show off your exceptional skill. It is truly inspiring (I even told about you to my students - and I teach maths, not drums !)

Pick Withers tight playing on this track is sooooo important for the whole DNA on "Sultans of swing". Especially the high hat lifts gives it the right groove and swing. Many drummers forget this very important part.

[@AdMBandLeader]

That and the certain human swing which is lacking here. This guy is sounding too rigid and quantized to the T(d). Let alone the overplayed flams and triplets, or rather sextuplets here.

[@rickphillips683]

@@AdMBandLeader amazing technician. But... yes completely overplayed. A cymbal crash on every one count? or every second measure on the one count is overplaying. As to quantization that is the real message. No click tracks were used in the making of the classic rock songs! As soon as the click track enters the recording studio is when the decline of pop music began. I would love to see this man(a true giant among drummers) leave off the rolls, turn off the backing track, and play to his own innate rhythm. Play only a beat... the basic feel of the song... that is where it's at. The rolls are the reward... for getting the feel and rhythm pattern in to the hypnotic place where it belongs. It is impossible to do hypnosis with a roll every 4 or 8 counts. But what do I know:)

Pick Withers delivered an exceptional performance on the record. I respected it from the first hearing when it was released. I grew up with guys like Jimmy White and Ben Baily who were #1 in State of GA in that day, then went on to study in University and be around Sonny Emery. As a bassist I was spoiled ROTTEN. Walking down the hall on the 3rd floor you would walk past the percussion practice rooms at 10 Peachtree Center Ave. S.E. and hear drummer practice, and have to stop and gawk at Sonny in his room and the sound leaking through the seam of the jamb. Stunning. I also got to work with a guy who inadvertently turned down playing for Stevie Nicks. He did not recognize her. That guy was immovable, even when he looked dead from the opioids his Dr. tried to kill him with. Just perfect and stone solid. That was the Sultan's Perc Part. Just as stunner.

[@nancysewell6670]

Jorge, I’m glad you exist and here’s my small bump to your algorithms! I’ll copy to a bunch of your videos! My reasons? 1. I’m not a drummer and haven’t listened to much music for years (I’m into books right now). I’ve never enjoyed watching drummers do their thing outside of a song. Despite that, you have grabbed my attention and I’ve dipped into music styles I don’t even enjoy and discovered artists that are great! Your mesmerizing drumming and the pure entertainment raised them to something worth watching again and again! Wow! I’ve listened to more music in the past couple months than in the last decade! Thank you! 2. You are funny, authentic, intelligent, incredibly disciplined and skilled. (You are also some real eye candy, but that wouldn’t matter if it wasn’t for your inner qualities!) What impresses me is that you want to pass on your life lessons, knowledge and skills to others and inspire them on their own journey. That’s big! Huge!!! We need more people in the world like that! 3. As a side note, in your Million Views video you mentioned that something in your character drives you to do correctly whatever you’re doing. That can be a blessing or a curse, but when I listened to your Mike Portnoy video and your story about your girl related reasons for learning his song, I just started laughing. Your drive to do things ‘correctly’ could be a blessing for your partners! 4. Thank you for enriching my life and I wish you fulfillment, success and happiness as you ‘lay pipe’ in your own life’s journey! Life is short, go for it! Nancy from the States!

Fade outs are like the shirt you're wearing. Bananas! Anyways one of my favorite tunes as well. The guitar riffs are epic. The drums are equally cool. Great job dude.

[@D0wNF4LLofficial]

Awesome cover dude. I have to admit I like a fade out, as it sounds like the song is going to continue on into the universe. Eternal!

I can not agree more with him about fade-outs I hate them!!! Moreover, El Estepario is a gorgeous drummer. It is a pleasure to see how he listens to the music when playing, his simple drum set and how he never hesitates. Proud that he is a Spaniard like me ❤

Sultans of Swing is a classic. My dad and I didn’t agree on much music but we used to blare the Brothers in Arms album together. I know it’s in another album but that got me exploring all their discography. So much great stuff. Alchemy live is a fantastic album.

Strike for strike spot on....omfg, love your analogy at the end

[@Ljoni83]

One of my favorite covers you have done. ❤

I've loved Dire Straits since 1980 and ruined the cassette tape by overplaying it in my Walkman - this is one of my 3 songs all time and you did a fantastic job!! I'm glad it's one of yours!

[@AndyNav1]

You REALLY enjoyed playing this. You looked Sooooooo into it. It was a joy watching you.

Amazing playing. I love the rant about fade outs! I totally agree, for such epic songs like sultans of swing and money for nothing... it's just sad, that they have no real ending.

[@fernandofinale1161]

The commentary at the end AHAHAHAHHAH "Baby did you come?" "No.....i used to fade out"

[@SeeWhyMan]

Always listening to the guitar in this song, I guess I never realized how amazing the drums are! Fantastico!

[@hugocapparelli1253]

Pick Withers was brilliant!

[@TIGERBILL-will-m-2]

Agreed. I feel the same way about the fade out. And that is a f**kin great song. Great job on the playing. U r an amazing drummer man!
