Thats amazing….I always wondered how Buddy did it. Thanks for solving one of lives great mysteries.

God, that is just so foreign to me. Ive been playing matched grip and want to go traditional. But man, this looks like it going to take a lot of patience and discipline. I'm going to try. Ill start with the open hand tech as you stated.

I suggest getting use to just standard traditional grip and just using wrist turns so you can get used to this angle. This is a sub technique essentially and would only be used for certain things and not outright. You can't really accent with the technique as you can see

This is the best explanation and videos for the B.R. left hand technique.

My god I have been looking for this. As a beginner drummer trying to make sense of a few of the different Traditional approaches, this solves a huge mystery of what the hell seems to be going on when you watch players do that “crab scratch”-looking thing while they are twisting the wrist. I can’t thank you enough. 🙏🏼

Thank you for showing me this!!!!! I started this morning and the stick kept falling out my hand and I was getting really anoyed, but after practicing this for the whole day I am starting to get a steady rhythm going. I learnt the other type of drum roll where you double stroke against the rim of the snare, but this one is simply cooler i think! thanks again

5 Thumbs up !!!! Brilliant break-down ! Demystifying ! Simply convincing !

A very clear and expertise lesson on this. I believe I am on my way to learning this now. Buddy would be proud of you! I met Buddy Rich in 1974 and shook his hand and got his autograph. I had hoped that some of his "magic" would have rubbed off - lol!

Cool lucky you, Buddy was so amazing.

thanks man (y) I like to say a couple things here. First, Iam a drummer of 45yrs, I'm not that good lol However, Ive got the love for percussion & drums in my heart just as much as anyone reading this? I sustain injuries to my left arm in an auto accident. Lost 45% of my elbow, have a metal plate in my forearm and two pins in my wrist. "Ive always said, it should have been me losing my arm instead of Rick Allen of Deff Leopard. All or most drummers wants to play traditional grip and Buddy Rich is the if not one of the most gifted? However, I taken lesson from my community college and my instructor told me something that made sense. AGAIN let me say = I believe different styles of drumming and music being played directly impacts on what grip and the best way to hold your 'Styx' with that being said. Matched Grip, is the natural movement of all the arms, elbows, wrist, finger joints and any thing else a person uses to play drums sitting behind them. NOW! When Standing up playing, In a Marching Band Position Traditional Grip seems to be the natural position, movement. mannn in retro of what I just wrote, commented = "Looks aren't everything! Especially when it comes to playing music" Play that, those notes in the best possible natural way. In Essence 'Looks Aren't Everything' ;)

Thank you for this really good, detailed explanation of how to play one handed roll traditional grip. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Terry. UK

Oh man this is great. I was a student of a guy who studied with Alex Duthart and have incorporated the thumb into my technique long ago.

One of the best tutorials on this technique that I've seen. Good stuff. Can't wait to try out for myself.

This was the cleanest lesson on this I have ever seen. The slow motion and camera angle was perfect and provided a solid look at what is actually involved in executing this technique. First of your vids I have seen but I am planning to watch whatever else you have.

Excellent tutorial - you really broke it down nicely - thanks

Outstanding technique and well done!

Great demo, really usefull. Clear, concise. Very appreciated !!!

That's great!!! I love Buddy Rich style and his technique.this is a very good explanation, you are very talented, thank you!!

Thanks for sharing and you have gave a very clear explaination and demostration.

He is one of those special teachers. He made that perfectly clear with the best approach from moment to moment throughout the video. I'm reading the other comments and it seems like there is a consensus on this. Thank you.

Thx so much! I love how you break this down.... being totally a matched grip drummer, I have no idea how to approach traditional grip. This breakdown gives me a really good view of how to even start and what it looks like! So thx!

Real nice informative demonstration.

You are awesome at this. Will have to master this now. Thank you!

This is a perfect drum lesson. Thank you very much.

What a great inspiration. I really want to master this .

Really great job explaining this.

Nice job. Awesome stuff.

One of the best descriotive videos for traditional grip I've seen. Awesome video man and vreat playing!

Practicing this material will be really helpful to me, thanks very much for posting this great demonstration!

I started a long time ago on traditional grip, but gave up eventually and switched to matched-grip. I watched so many videos of Steve Gadd's hands and I could never figure what he was doing with his two fingers. If I had watched your video at that time I may never have abandoned the traditional grip (I probably would still have used matched-grip but I would have kept the option to use traditional as well). Well explained.

After watching this video I couldn’t move my thumb for two weeks excellent lesson and teaching skills

Nice! Really clear tutorial, thanks mate!

Yep, old Buddy had sure gathered a bag of tricks through the years....thanks for video....

thank you so much for showing this. I had a chance to take lessons with Alex Acuna, Steve Houghton and Dave Weckl. Since then I've had 2 strokes so now it's all about my rehab.

Many have attempted to explain, many failed...you, my friend, have succeded by far! Cheers to you!

Great video. Very informative. Thank you.

Great practice lesson. Something I really need to try

Tremendous tutorial!

the best explained and showed video on youtube .... but still can´t do it that fast .) brilliant and astounding

Thumbs up, great teaching. Gonna use it, when I manage to learn it. Drumming can be so complex.

Very, very good! Thank you so much.

How long did it take from the first time you had attempted this to when you finally was able to execute the roll correctly?

Great tutorial, man. like most drummers, with no lessons, I play with a match grip. I've been watching Buddy Rich videos all morning,and your tutorial was the cherry on top. I think I'll finish my coffee and go practice now.

Great tutorial! Thanks

Great tutorial.

you are awesome. i play both traditional and matched. thank you for the further explaination. bret

Play RLLRLLRLL etc. as sixteenth notes at 200 bpm or so, and you’re nailing a Buddy signature lick.

You did a very thorough job of demonstrating/explaining how to perform this technique. I'm having difficulty getting past the shuffle feel, obviously I'm not doing something right and it's getting a little frustrating. Thank you kindly!.

GREAT LESSON!!!

Nice video. I played traditional grip for about 35 years. I was getting a bad case of arthritis so I used mostly matched grip afterwards. I still use it for traditional jazz but those gigs are few and far between anymore. Buddy was the best I've ever seen doing this. Virgil Donati's not to shabby either.

I played for years self taught/hobby per KZread. Who knew all of this finger stuff. Amazing

WOWW ..... GREAT TUTORIAL !!

Most drummers don't realize that Buddy Richs sticks were SUPER light weight like balsa wood .

No .Sorry you are wrong.Those are throwaways to give out.His are a 7a type.Darker and a little heavy for there size.Balanced beauty of a stick.Dense. Mine are best from the 60.s and complained about the change.He said it was a new company or factory?Have lots of pairs and used every one.Too bad because we had a good thing going. By the 80.s even his sticks got worse.Ask Dale Wise PA or any roadie.Thanks Brad forgot about those.

very useful tutorial ... good job done !

Fantastic explanation. Thank you :-)

This is a helpful video. I've always wanted to learn one handed rolls and these seem the most practical of the other ways you can do them - like bouncing off the rim and etc. It's still pretty hard, but thanks for the tutorial. I want to make a cool drum solo that incorporates this.

Such an excellent technique. Thanks for sharing your stuff. BTW, those sticks have seen better days!!

Great video! Thanks!!

Good teaching man. I love playing a shuffle. Do turnaround lick with the left hand and keep that shuffle with the rest of it all. People think I'm killing it.

Every technique has its place, and using the rim to achieve a fast one-handed roll is certainly one of them. Like anything else, it can be used tastefully or can be overdone. But it should be studied, practiced, and perfected.

very useful video by the way!

Thats great. Thanks for that.

I played traditional grip for the first 15 years of my playing. I still use it to play brushes. However the last 35 I have pretty use matched grip 95% of the time. I found it made more sense for me when playing the kit and I always questioned why you wouldn't use it for mallet instruments. I found it much faster to develop speed and touch using both hands the same and ease of getting around the kit. I cant find a sensible argument to play traditional except that it was the "norm" back in the day. I play in straight ahead jazz, latin music, blues, rock all with the matched grip and feel no need to use traditional grip. I use traditional with brushes because it feels more comfortable but that is really it. Anyway that's my 2 cents for what its worth.

Whatever works for you is the way to go. I just have found no valid reason for myself to use it anymore. I play jazz, afro-Cuban, play in rock bands, big bands etc. and have had no problem getting the sound or touch that I am looking for. To each his own. BTW I don't dismiss any of the players that use traditional grip. I have been influenced by them all. For me though I have found matched grip to be the way to go. I also want to mention that I have spent many years practicing matched grip. It took me quite a while to get my press rolls and doubles smoothed out like it had with traditional. And playing jazz , getting used to the left hand positin took some time. I think if you work at anything you can make it happen. I just wanted to focus on matched because it made more sense to me. I appreciate the argument though.

331paradiddle Because using traditional snare grip is really hard with mallet instruments and its much easier to move around and play faster with matched. The sticks are just too thin to do that and it would just make the instrument more difficult.

@NathanLaValley

Jesus Christ the reason you play mallet instruments with what seems like "match grip" is because the end and start position of a proper mallet stroke is at the top. in other words your mallet head should start and end several inches above the instrument because of how it (the instrument) resonates. If you were to try to do this with traditional grip that top position would be pretty difficult to hold and keep coming to. the mallet instrument is played very differently then a tightly strung head like a snare! :D

this is great, man!

Man, that no finger one really gets the wrist burning.

Damn you are good at that.

I can only seem to get to just over 110 bpm for 16th notes. How long did it take you to pick up to your current speed and how much time per day did you put in to get to that?

You do an excellent job of explaining Much better than Mayer_ he seems more about showing off. The master of this imo is Jeff Hamilton as he uses the technique in an ensemble setting in musical ways.

Hahaha omg can you show us the nasal hair and lip technique while you're here, unbelievable control, i keep attempting doing any of the shown technique's and i just go back to matched grip. I just can't get it certainly not the way you can and do. Great video thank you 👏

cool, very nice, I think it'll take me at least 2 years to get that right and even... thanks for the lesson

Did you get it down?

Hey man, your third way, I use that quite back on the stick, maybe with a 2cm, 1" distance from the end of the stick. Works great for rimshots and then small notes after near the rim. I like that you tell it like is too get work or play for fun. I think technique is 90% for not hurting yourself. If it sounds good, do it, but don't hurt yourself.

very nice!

Thank you for taking the time to explain this so clearly,I’m a beginner and this has helped me tremendously...Howie

Buddy Rich was right hand , as I saw in all of his drum Solo's he developed a one lift hand ✋ Triple beat lick . Right hand Triple beat can be 2 ways or more . Either done ✔ by holding the drumstick more Lose & letting the stick rock up & down letting gravity do its work 💪 ! Second technique is resting the drumstick halfway on the drum rim rocking it very fast , problem here is You need a Slingerland stick saver rim Or else you will be carving your drumsticks in time , again thank you for the video and now I know the secret why Buddy Rich left hand rolls were faster Then his right hand ! Keep experimenting and you'll hand rolls will get faster ! Bye 👋for Now !!

one of the rare videos with +10k views and no dislike :)

Great Video to learn from ! Everyone has a different technique do !

very nice man, it really usefull, thanx

Your thumb or first knuckle is always pinch-anchoring the stick to keep the stick in the "bed" or channel of your hand. I have never seen this explained before so thank you. Great demo. I'm going to work on that. And ten years after the fact. Thanks for leaving this video up. Do you have any travel control videos? I have problems with cross stick when playing over low toms. Thanks.

so clever wow I wish I had a thought of it first :(

well,you've really done your home work,now let's see if your followers can do there home work..thats one thing I was never good at..I've never seen this 1 hand roll,''But i like it,look's like it would be hard to grasp,but not impossible,nice..thank you for share'ing..''Your the Kind Of Person That Will Invent your Own Method That Other People will follow.Good Luck''...
