Zigaboo Modeliste w/ Friends Cissy Strut Live @ Rockefeller

[@JeffreyMulac8]

A drumming legend showing how its done. The greatest beat in N'Orleans funk.

[@jmdrummer7]

Mr. Modeliste is one of those all day drummers. I can listen to him play all day and not get tired of it.

[@patrickmurchison9982]

Nobody does it like Zig. Persoanlly, this is my favorite version. The whole band is smokin'!!!

[@courtbeall7768]

First time I heard this was on the "Jackie Brown" opening credits by Quentin T.I'm a drummer and this groove made me stop everything I was doing and dig his Hi-Hat accents,kick drum pattern and the bridge kills me.I'm amazed everytime I hear it.

[@paradiddle16]

Totally underrated drummer. Always loved his playing with the meters.

[@matsnilsson565]

BEST DRUMMER EVER! (personal note) No one can play these syncopated licks like JOSEPH did. He and GEORGE were the masters when it comes to FUNK no questions asked! Live performances around late sixties and early seventies are impossible to find from this legendary funk group (THE METERS). So this is what we true "Funkateers" will still our funk hunger at, not at all this earthy way of groove they played back then but it got some serious funk though.

[@237iggy]

definetly one of the best grooves of all time.Zigaboo Modeliste kicks ass!

[@dawallum]

the band is: Øystein Greni (guitar), Nikolai Eilertsen (bass), Erik Holm (percussion) and David Wallumrød (keys)

[@MrFg1980]

What am I to do ? I just watched this for the 100th time. I'm hooked. I MUST learn this groove to continue to live.

[@leonerdlikestoreference3162]

Frode Grunsvold a beginner drum class would cover that beat, any drum teacher in north america could show you it.

[@MrFg1980]

I was just trying to be emphatic because the groove is so solid, I think I can cover it thanks...

[@slimstain]

+Leon Koop whataloadofbollocks!

[@dasteelerfan1]

Cissy Strut Baby 😎🎶👍 Thanks for sharing brother just made my day

[@22cwheels22]

Finally a damn good video WITH ZERO DISLIKES!!! Hells yeah

[@tdrum21]

One of the greatest grooves of all time!

[@mikeleza]

I swear he plays it completely different in the original recording... Still its great to see him doin it.... The original and the best... RESPECT ZIGABOO!!

[@plumsliceful]

So much love !!!

[@brentmann]

that snare sounds amazing!

[@musicmaster332211]

Funky as hell man. Love it.

[@vanwijk89]

Det der var en herlig kveld!!

[@RobReason]

Mid to late 90's I played a couple of opening up the meters. Ziggy met me in Walnut Creek, Ca. at my Piano Gig

[@justkickingitwithdorejohns3671]

My uncle killed it ♡♡♡♡♡

[@staccarto51]

Yes,they are excellent players,too!!

[@mrthundaboots]

I've been playing this wrong for so long.Now I know how!

[@patrickmurchison9982]

I've been fascinated by this groove since I first heard it as a kid. I have Dennis Chambers' DVD "Master Drummer" (great DVD) where he discusses and plays this groove. He plays it with one hand on the hi-hat. He didn't sound as funky as Zig does here. I think the two-handed method adds something special to it.

[@guyfidelity]

Holy crap, grooooooooooove.

[@RedeyePerc]

Every time I play this with my band and I can't get that extra bass drum note on the "e" of 3, I'll come watch this video and won't feel so bad.

[@ryman462]

my thoughts exactly

[@tdrum21]

Just straight up honest deep good music!

[@HoichiTheEarless]

This young handsome fella is definitely the future of drumming....oh wait, he's been playing since the 60's. Haha, he has quite possibly influenced more drummers than Bernie Purdy has. =)

[@thomas.silvano]

That's is groove

[@Chrispaulmartin]

Hell yea. So damm funky

[@kewlfonz]

The thinking behind Zig's drum pattern here, is very clever indeed-He's taken a basic New Orleans, shuffle roll played only on the snare drum, then he's removed parts of it and substituted it with the bass drum instead to give it a more 'linear' fee, and of course moved the virtually all the roll to the hi hats. A lot of drummers wouldn't dare to play it like Zig, because they'd be terrified of not grooving enough to drive the band, so they merely revert to playing shuffled sixteenths on the hi hat with only the right hand. Trouble with this approach, is that it makes the hi hat pattern TOO snappy. Zig's the owner of this beat and I've not heard anybody touch him yet...

[@butuh13]

Kind of interesting that he hold his left stick backwards... I've done that for a long time, starting when I played in a reggae band for a few years. It made the click louder, but I got used to it when playing the full snare. I always thought it was kind of a bad habit and tell my students not to. But it seems to work for Zig.

[@montanaroenrico]

ZIGABOOOOOOO

[@jamo2006]

SICK :)

[@gaopa7]

i practice base beat and i felt shoot this is not easy more than what i expected... so now start practicing again from 65~70.

[@goldiecob]

wow what a sick find. Anyone know who the rest of the band is playing with ZIg? This is HOT

[@MrFg1980]

Wow :0 Groove

[@aallen6408]

This is the tits! Ziggy and great band to boot! And I had no idea Owen Wilson could play guitar! ;)

[@RJOH794449]

The man plays sharply, edgy, crisp beats usually found with bands from New Orleans.

[@allanb3blues]

he's from n. orleans .... 'meters'

[@cragnog]

@chochemerlyn yeh true that, its got a whole lotta groooove

[@teetomthomas]

The drums sound different but the Drummer doesn't. Great Clip.

[@yeaheverday]

new orleans baby! theres somethin in the wata' !

[@yeaheverday]

ziggy mac !

[@eldorado96]

I came here for Zig's groove, but the whole BigBang band thing is tight. Feature the B-3 fill and solo!

[@eldorado96]

It would be more accurate to note the A-100 keys in this case, but you know what I mean.

[@csclarke]

Who is that bass player????

[@fflychameleon]

The original bassist was George Porter, Jr.

[@chochemerlyn]

@cragnog Just a tiny bit slower than the original recording, but people usually end up playing this way too fast and lose the whole feel of the tune, not to mention the beat's usually not right. I'd rather hear this a bit laid back, in between the cracks and funky than faster, too straight and rushed, which would never happen with Zig on the kit!

[@rowepiece37]

that crowd needs to loosen up a bit and share in the groove!

[@pretorious700]

Zig can make anyone sound good apparently

[@cragnog]

gooood but.. sloooowww
