Finally a real drummer and musician actually playing the parts instead of showing off useless flashy stuff. Awesome. Tight and beautifully recorded. Subscribed.

[@ewancunningham]

Thank you very much :)

[@joesmith34]

Agreed

[@mrkevin6354]

Yes. 💯💯💯💯💯 👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️

[@robertaugustini-hh4we]

Well done young man! I've played the drums for 33 years and I love playing that tune, it's fun to play and you played it nice and clean. Good job!

[@colinevans1177]

Of all the drum covers I've listened to for the Doobie Brothers on KZbin, this is the only guy who's any good. He's a natural.

[@ewancunningham]

+Colin Evans Wow thank you so much Colin, not everyday I get comments this good :-)

[@colinevans1177]

No problem, Ewan. I'm a musician myself, Have been most of my life. Love the Doobie Brothers and love that drum cover. Keep going, mate. You're good and don't ever listen to any negative critisizm. God bless you!

[@goesfarfliesnear1447]

This came up in my feed and am so glad it did. Thanks for doing the classic proud! Very nice job.

[@hughrechner1679]

Ewan, thank you. You've got this song nailed. I'm a High School band teacher, and I'll have my drummers listen to you. Amazing job. Great feel!

[@philkimber8086]

I couldn't agree more with the previous comment,great to finally see a young drummer who doesn't feel the need to fill every bar with a million notes,splashes,crashes,double bass drum and fills throughout the entire track. You played the song brilliantly! Nice work ....

[@ewancunningham]

+Phil Kimber Thank you for the wonderful comment Phil! I always try not to overplay. This song has great fills in it so there's no reason they should be changed :-)

[@gizmo98632]

Yall.. this is what perfection sounds like. This young man. Played this without error. Absolutely perfect! I agree with a previous comment. No unnecessary fills. Just the song played perfectly! Well done man!

[@ogden700]

Wow! 16 years old and you nail a classic: and with beautiful feel. My respects.

[@ewancunningham]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate this kind of support :-)

[@giovannipepe7014]

Sei veramente quello che si dice il batterista perfetto per insegnare a noi tutti come vanno suonate le canzoni originali registrate su disco. Cheers my good boy!!

[@kenraq2000]

Beautifully recorded! That snare sounds great

[@ewancunningham]

Thanks a lot dude! Glad you appreciate the sound quality as well :-)

Your use of ghost notes during the groove was very subtle and very cool.

[@woodybear8298]

Beautiful. So well done.

[@noelmcmurray6147]

awesome!! loving your ghost notes!!

[@thelatenightbar]

I've been really sucked into some of these "Drum covers" on youtube lately. yours always seems to be of the highest quality. Fun to watch a performance of such quality by someone who looks to really enjoy what they are doing. Keep on rockin'. thanks for sharing.

[@robertoney3021]

I’ve been covering songs since the 70s on drums ...very impressed ! even your ghost notes were dead on ! Keep up the ‘great’ work !

[@andrewbarker8642]

I love this video. Ghost notes are superb and the little fill at 1:16 is very smooth. Great playing!

[@ewancunningham]

+Andrew Barker Thank you Andrew! This is such a fun song to play :-)

[@andrewbarker8642]

Out of interest - what are your sticks Ewan?

[@stevendennison1909]

Premium quality production. Nice.

[@horst83707]

Sauber aufgespielt !!!! Super !!!

[@salcipres8556]

Very nice job young man. I don't typically play cover songs but I'm going to sit in with a cover band here in Austin soon so I'm woodshedding on many covers (this being one of them). You did this song justice to the original studio recording. Love your groove on the chorus. Very clean. Keep up the great work. Acustyka Drummer (Austin Texas).

[@ewancunningham]

+Rock Drummer Thanks for watching man :-) I'm glad you liked it!

[@timekeeper46]

+ewanjohncovers I love the way your drums are tuned. Got that nice "solid" sound on the snare.

[@carguy3460]

Awesome job.

[@ewancunningham]

Cheers :-)

[@jeanfabio_maridodealuguel]

Muito bom amigo!! Seus vídeos são muito bons, o jeito que vc foca a câmera, da pra ver certinho como tocar a música, da para aprender só de olhar você tocando.

[@tatimetal2436]

great work !!!!

[@osborndrums]

Love your kit by the way to. I also have a GoPro. It's a hero 4 session I believe.

[@richcarbba6264]

I Jammed along with my Bass...well done!!

[@BABYWOLF--1966]

EXCELLENT RENDITION THANKS 😊 👍

[@timekeeper46]

Update on snare tuning. Found online to tighten resonate head tight-tight and put some duct tape on it. I loosened the wires and it sounds pretty good. Got rid of the annoying "crack" sound. My drum has a metal shell, which I am sure does not help.

[@juancarlosikocueva]

EXCELENTE

[@Marckymarc71]

Nailed it! Great work!

[@ewancunningham]

Marckymarc71 Thank you very much!

[@ewancunningham]

+virgocomputing Thank you very much! :-)

[@Lehmann108]

Nice ghosting man! Love hearing you play this just like the original, but I'd love to hear you cover it with your own unique musicality. What do you say? Let's give the drummer some and that is you!

[@ewancunningham]

Thanks a lot Lehmann! I like to be precise and true to the original. I find it more challenging :-)

[@edaltman2869]

Nice Job!

[@motivacion.reflexion]

You’re excellent, man thumbs up

[@고현길-u3t]

Greatest Cover. exellent play & perforance. The Greatest cover. Not plus and origins.

[@고현길-u3t]

+ewanjohncovers This text is not complimentary comments. John your performance was the most excellent play than original Doobie Brothers's.including Pink Floyd too. Unfortunitely it was impossible to download into mp3 file to introduce to my friends to let them to know your playings to my korean fellows. Really AWESOME.........
