Dude do you realize your cousin is a living legend

I am a student at the Culinary Institute of America and just got to shake this man's hand as he came through the campus bookstore. Best day ever.

Got to love a drummer who starts a solo quoting A Love Surpreme!

yeah hahahhaha that is it~

I was singing A Love Supreme throughout this solo, it's a first time I hear a drummer playing a melody and then solo over it creating all dynamic music pulses and nuances as if he's playing with a full band. He's a real virtuoso.

First thing I heard❤

This has to be the most MUSICAL solo I've ever heard. He is literally TALKING through the kit, which is why i love his playing so much. He was even doing this with Miles back in the day, he just perfected it. Alot to learn here

a drum supreme...

Jack has beautiful melodic symmetry in his playing. You can tell that he spent many hours alone exploring his "voice".

It's all about composing and musicality not rudiments which should serve the music not the other way round, Jack is the ultimate musical drummer a joy to behold.

A Love Supreme musically referenced ...then onto more melodic drumming. He is playing songs, not solos. Beautiful.

The most musical drum solo of all time. Jack plays drums like the piano.

nice to hear someone actually playing a musical instrument instead of been obsessed with playing as fast as they possibly can ....lovely

I ve heard hundrets of drum solos, this is among the best.

I could listen to him play all day. So un-common and humane; less math, more poetic.

I've drummed my whole life 67 years old. From North Chicago. Jack DeJohnett. Aghhhhhhh please. He's Savant. A Living Legend and BOSS. One of Steve Smith's favorites. Mine too.

He's playing 'A Love Supreme' by John Coltrane.

He is whole band by himself. I met him years ago at a life changing clinic. He spent a lot of time talking about aliens and American Indians. It got way out there. His solos first on piano then drums was truly from the stars. Nobody plays like Jack. Wow!

A Master Musician! This is not just an interpretation of John's beautiful tune...this is a prayer to a higher power! Flat out AWESOME.

Well said

I think at this point Jack DeJohnette has earned his status as a drumming legend. He can "say" as much or as little as he wants; he's pretty much revered. While he has primarily played traditional in his career, I've seen people's comments on this video saying that he had hand problems and switched to mainly match grip.

negative comments? remember, Jack is there and you never will be.

I have no clue how anyone who claims to know anything about music can just come out and admit how stupidly blind they are to the absolute majesty of this drum solo.

He's playing 'A Love Supreme' by John Coltrane. Thanks !

Jack is unbelievably awesome, I love his Aquarian signature drumheads, they sound fantastic! ❤

Ah, sounds like he's playing, 'A Love Supreme"...Love Jack...

One of the most musical Drum solo i have ever seen,what a joy.

He's got the groove!

he is playing a love supreme!

My favorite jazz drummer 🥁

one of the greatest drummers ever!LOve anything he does especially gateway,anyone from any genre can learn from this man.

A Love Supreme! Nice just saw him with Esperanza, Joe Lovano, and Leo Genovese and they played "Resolution." Killing.

My all time favorite drummer! Simply an amazing man.

Respect Jack De Johnette in so many many ways. An expressive musician Taste and Story Telling in a Melodic Fashion. Also I must give credit and I know that Jack will agree. The man who really put the butter on the popcorn and vanilla ice cream on the apple pie., The one The only Late MAX ROACH. Dizzy called Max the Painter,. His spectrum of melodic drumming. Jack De Johnette does so many great fabulous happenings for percussion. He drumming is like listening to a phrase of tonal percussion. Nice drumming and absolutely musical from the word go. No fast chops needed here. This is a Musical Drum Solo

yes! - a clear interpretation/solo around this incredible piece of music by an incredible musician

One of the best improvised drum solos for me. sometimes it’s not just about playing faster than the other guys.... It’s how you tell a story and how you construct something that would sound like one complete thought from beginning to end.

Great - melodic, expressive - too many drummers sound like a knitting machine these days ;-)

Absolutely Beautiful Mr DeJohnette!!

True art, genuine human expression. So inspiring.

Jack is easily one of the most musical drummers of our time.

seeing this live was definitely a life highlight. killin.

the Sabian 3- Point Ride, my most favorite cymbal that I've ever played. Thank you Jack for being so awesome and designing such an awesome cymbal!

More just just an artist. He's an innovator.

Jack is truly one of my favorite drummers 🎉❤

great performance!!!!!awesome dynamics and groove..

I supremely love this solo! Thanks ~

without a doubt one of the greatest!!!

What an inspiration!

This solo is a great thing to learn from!!!

Jack is the GREATEST. SO MUCH MUSICALITY, COORDINATION, SOUL. I LOVE IT. SO INSPIRING

Wonderful!

7 people didn't realize they were watching the greatest living drummer( considering the amount of albums, tours, shows, and clinics, here and around the world he's done since 1960)... Can anyone match his out put? Drumming is about expressing something, not just playing fast. He can play extremely fast, too. Mind-boggling phrases, not just basic stuff played fast, like some rock drummers, that some think are sooo great. It makes me wonder how many people commenting are actual drummers!!!!????

Touring rock drummer here, yes he's pretty fucking amazing, its sad to see that people can't appreciate this, his dynamic and his melodic approach to soloing is really great to watch

"Drumming is more than speed" - This is exactly what Jack has demonstrated. It is a musical playing. @sdsdsdsdsnhgvjshfvjs nailed it when he said A Love Supreme by John Coltrane. That's what he's playing! You can hear the song as he plays it. Every note he plays is so relaxed, and I feel that's appropriate when you listen to the lyrics of that song - they're kinda laid back. At the same time, he has a commanding control over the tempo. That's what I get out of this type of playing.

one of the best , too !!!!

Beautiful drum finish and playing :).

one of the all time drum masters on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pure joy. Like water.

singing drummer! great!! 聴き惚れた！

still love it!!

Oh man what a natural sound!!! Sound!,!!!

Thanks Jack!

I saw this guy when he came to Seattle! F'n beast!!

The comments are right on! He really does “talk” though his kit playing. Takes you along so naturally.

So pure....

MOAR!

definitely a drummer's drummer. the way he throws those tom fills out is real craftsmanship.

Ce mec est juste exceptionnel !

Masterful..has usual!

Brilliant 🥁👌

Looks like Colin Powell. Those drums sound AMAZING. Jack should could be a chef Because he's cookin some tasty stuff for sure.

Who needs a band when you've got this guy! Yeah, yeah, and once more...YEAH!

expressive, nice playing!

Great lesson of how to dialog with the drums.

Saw him locally at a music store and did a solo. After 45 minutes we said "seen enough - let's go. God knows how much longer this will go on."

That melody is also the itotele of chachalokafun....bata drumming

Cool. A Love Supreme solo

Excelente 👏👏👏👏👏👏🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🇧🇷👍

The Best Percussionist in the Universe! For Sure! Seen in Montreal Jazz Fest whith Pat Metheny...many years ago I Remember!!! What a Concert! OOOOOOOOOOOOUF!

Awesome

A LOVE SUPREME!!!!! I heard it too!!

I understand why JD is one of Bill Stewart’s favorite drummers

I've been playing solitaire while listening to Jack. You all should try that sometime...I mean not watching but just listening. It's like a song.

magic

A Drummer Supreme

❤️❤️❤️

This is "Acknowledgement" from "A Love Supreme". John Coltrane's album.
