My Drum Teacher at the very first couple of lessons told me to pick a drummer to emulate! I went home and listened to the Synchronicity album that my brother. gave me for my birthday. I picked Stewart ( he is my fave), and my teacher told me to pick someone else. I persisted. I listened and listened! Played and played. In my third year our choir teacher had me play as part of the show band in Disneyland. A lady walked up and told me that I sounded like Stewart Copeland. I cried. It made me so happy. What an amazing compliment!!!

His groove for ‘Spirits in the Material World’ is a trip. Not because it’s a difficult rhythm but because of where the guitars and synthesiser come in; it feels like they’re playing quarter notes but it’s actually on the upbeats.

Stewart Copeland always said how important it was for him to pay attention to everything going on in the band while he was playing - to himself, to Andy and Sting, to other instrumentalists, if they were there - to immerse himself in the totality of the sound and to play accordingly, rather than concentrating solely on his own playing.

I couldn't agree more about Stewart Copeland's importance in the music world. I'm sure this is subjective, but I truly feel that without Stewart on the kit, The Police might never have made it. That's not to say that Sting and Andy might not have still been famous musician's in their own right, but I think Stewart's style made that combination sound so different that the three of them just clicked (professionally, anyway). Cheers.

Stewart's playing on Murder By Numbers is probably my all time fave groove of his, especially near the end of the tune where he plays a Tony Williams lick (grouping eighth-note triplets into four - playing the first three of those eighth-note triplets and leaving out the fourth eighth-note triplet). And the crazy part about it is that I'm sure he never listened to Tony Williams because he's been quoted as saying that he hates jazz, even though he plays like a jazz drummer).

I was watching Rick Beato and he got Murder By Numbers figured out (the beat anyway - and I figured out the rest). If you follow the kick drum you find Stewart is playing 4/4 time. The kick is on 2 and 4. Sting comes in on 1 on bar 9 if you follow this pattern. Andy comes bar 17 with in Sting coming in on 1 again (each line of lyrics is about 2 bars long). What Stewart is doing is playing quarter note triplets on the hats, while on the cross stick is he playing the same quarter note triplets but plays a rest on every odd numbered beat of the cross stick. On bar 8, on the kick, the 1st note is a triplet with the first 2 beats of the triplet being rests (plays the third beat of that triplet), followed by a quarter note rest then 2 quarter notes. You are correct, it is deceptively simple (about 95 BPM). I wrote this out in MuseScore and played it back - exact match (I have been able to read music sense I was 13, I am now over 50 :) )

Thanks Steven, you really have a great way to break these beats down. I remember playing in cover bands in the 80's and attempting to learn these tunes with a cassette tape- ugh! I always loved how Copeland would mix these cool beats with straight 2 and 4 beats in the chorus- just genius. I also recall an interview with Copeland in the early eighties where he said it wasn't just a mix with reggae, that he had grown up in a military family that lived all over the world including the Middle East and he listened to all sorts of music as a kid. That, he said, was what influenced him. Keep the lessons coming!

@kevinconnor6035
@kevinconnor6035 5 жыл бұрын
My issue (which other comments seem to convey) is that he doesn't play the groove until after he's broken it all down. It's a counterintuitive method and it can be confusing. It's hard to appreciate what he is explaining without context. What all the best teachers I have seen do is play the groove once at full tempo so we can understand its basics, and then break it down for the "why." Then they play the groove at half tempo so you can really hear each note distinctly. Then they play it at full speed again, and by that time, you know the groove and all its component parts. I don't think people are asking him to *just* play. They're asking him to play it first, so we know what he's explaining.

So true. I guess other videos show this in 2 different ways, how he played it with reverb added and how to play it without the reverb but still sounding similar

he's easily one of the most underrated drummers ever. That guy live is unbelievable. I'm so glad I got to enjoy the police a few times live.

He is definitely not underrated. He’s always on people’s lists of best ever drummers.

I play in a ska band that plays original music. 9/10 of my drum beats were all nicked from Stewart!! Because I grew up listening to the beat, the specials and all the old traditional ska hits. Playing the bass drum on the 3 always came naturally to me!! I remember a much better drummer than me, coming to me for a few lessons in ska drumming!! This guy was a monster rock drummer, but he just couldn't get his head round not hitting the ONE!!

Growing up playing drums as a teenager and loving the Police was never being able to play my favorite songs! They were just too difficult. I'd love to have them broken down for me, like this.

For the critical folks here, I think you've done a fine simple explanation of this not so simple to do track(Murder). I couldnt have done it better. From 8:00-9:12, you execute it.

I don't play drums, but I know every single Police song ever recorded and "One World" stands out as one of the grooviest Stuart drum patterns.
