How about a lesson on the push-pull on the hit hat to do the hihat shuffle.

Mike, ..............You are the only on line drum instructor who got through to me on learning this unique, Iconic, one of a kind, work of art drumbeat. I've struggled for years and now finally have it down. You break it down masterfully ! Thanks

It's because he "counts" the time signature instead of just saying " it's a 4/6 time" or whatever time signature it is.

My thoughts exactly 👍🏼

The best tutorial on Jeff Porcaro's 'Rosanna' I've seen. The ghost notes and the 'in between' shuffle played here, seperates this version from other interpretations.

Dude, that was way cool, even though I'm not a drummer thanks for breaking that down.

Nice breakdown of the shuffle, the base pattern and the ghost notes to a very unique song. I've come across many instructions on how to play this grove, however this is the best yet, primarily in its simplicity and the way you build upon the skeleton of the song.

This is a fantastic breakdown of how to play it and similar to how I've been trying to teach myself after watching video after video on it so this will help so much. So many videos concentrate on the hand pattern and then suggest practicing the full kick pattern and then say now lets put it together. Thank you.

Great breakdown. Simple steps!

One of my favourite 80’s groups Mike and one of the best classic songs ever. That’s a really tough drum piece especially maintaining that shuffle. Need strong arms to keep going! The ghost notes make it even more super complicated. Wonder if Simon Phillips played it as well as Jeff.

I think others have over prioritized the ghost notes and adding the back beat snare last, when the order should be triplets first , then kick, then snare back beat. Once that is nailed down, then finesse and finish with the ghost notes.

👍🏽🔥🔥👍🏽

for playing the half time shuffle, does your sticking pattern change, beacause i am not able to go that fast while normal sticking?

@MikeBarnesDrums

Жыл бұрын

No right stick on the hi-hat all the way, in the classic version anyway. In this version, you'll need your other stick to play the ghost notes on the snare anyway! It takes drummers several years of practice to get this fast enough and smooth in my experience, and I'm very much still working on it! Cheers for watching :)

This might be a stupid question but are their more ghost notes in the full grade 8 piece?

@@MikeBarnesDrums thanks! As a beginner am I going too hard on myself trying to get that "feel" level of volume on my ghost notes? Before that double snare hit I can nail it, super quiet, very much in that "texture" range. That second hit I can still get pretty quiet, but really struggling to volume match to the same degree. Really dig your videos btw just stumbled on them recently when starting to learn this beat, very clear and not showy at all which is a massive positive for me as a beginner.
