Vic Firth Talks: "Gaddiments" w/ Steve Gadd

[@tmaddrummer]

Here I am, all jazzed up after listening to Joe and Steve, and at the end of Way Back Home, I'm clapping like I'm in a live performance and audience...... now I'm laughing at myself. Thanks and Blessings, this was a real treat!

I've been practicing Gaddiments solely with my hands since I received the book a couple of months ago. I'm learning that one of Steve's uniquenesses is based on performing rudiments - but with a highly developed intuition of time and count. Developing that intuition is what the book is all about - breaking the regimentation of time we have programmed ourselves into is by far the most difficult task, but is the gem everyone should seek. Everything is there to develop this intuition, but it's elusive and easy to miss unless you recognize the paradigm shifts from how we envision time. Practicing with my hands helps me to focus entirely on developing this intuition.

Until now, I could only have imagined what my dog experiences when given a fresh snewy leg bone to chew on - now I know. Gaddiments is that luscious - and will keep drummers happy, entertained, engaged and coming back for more - Just my humble assessment so far ☺️ Thank you Steve!

The Hudson eBook version of Gaddiments is awesome. The videos are embedded with each gaddiment. Watch, practice, watch, practice. Couldn’t ask for a better format.

Anyone know what the track is at the end of the video? It’s awesome. Can’t stop listening

[@ptronicmusic]

Ah this one is a classic! Steve Gadd with Larry Goldings playing Chega De Saudade. I've seen it listed as No More Blues (Saudade) on the drummerworld yt channel.

[@kennytesta9312]

Great job Testa!

[@Karch.Dah-Veed]

Anybody else notice that in the video demos for Gaddiments, Steve doesn't really play the noted accents, but keeps everything at more or less the same level?
